Cavalor Dry Feet

However, knowing the British summer, it’s not all sun, sun, sun, as we experience our fair share of rain too! The British summertime creates the perfect breeding ground for bacteria, as the temperature becomes warmer and the ground damp. That’s where Cavalor Dry Feet saves the day!

Dry Feet makes the hoof a less hospitable environment for bacteria thanks to the combination of different active ingredients. The ingredient, Glutaraldehyde has a drying and hardening effect, while Benzalkonium chloride makes sure the product sticks to the hoof for longer.

With damp weather, Thrush becomes a very common occurrence. The bacterial infection that occurs on the hoof of a horse, specifically in the region of the frog, is prominent even in the cleanest of feet, so BEWARE!

Thanks to the useful spray bottle, the liquid can reach the deep clefts on the sole. By making the hooves hard and dry, oxygen will find its way back to the area close to the frog, which will cause the death of the bacteria and maintain healthy hooves in summer, right through until winter!
