Olaf’s recommendation for heavy workload

Tendon problems & heavy workload during the season

When your horse has to perform at a high level during competition season, training or periods of heavier workload, the body needs targeted nutrient support for hooves, tendons and connective tissue.

Important: Hufkur does not replace veterinary treatment for acute tendon injuries. It is used as supportive nutrition during exertion, recovery and preparation for the season.

Hoofgold Hoof Oil

“The hooves are looking better.”

He had very dry, brittle hooves. I have been using the oil for three weeks now, although only about four times a week, and I think they are looking better.

BlueStuff Frog Care

“Finally, something that visibly helps.”

Easy to use, a little goes a long way, and there was a clear improvement within a few days. My farrier recommended it, and I can highly recommend it too, as I had already tried several products from other companies without success. Two thumbs up!

Hoofgold Thrush Care Combination Set 2 with Brush

“I am really impressed.”

Unfortunately, we had problems with thrush in all four hooves. Thanks to using this, it is almost gone; only two small areas remain. We will order one more bottle. I am really impressed. It is easy to use and it helps.

Hoofgold Hornpad — 10 Pads

“Now everything is as it should be.”

About two years ago, there was thrush in the front hooves. Nothing helped, and I sought lots of advice. Over the winter, the thrush got deeper and deeper. Then I used Hoofgold Pads and Blue Stuff for the less affected hoof. Now everything is as it should be. I am very happy about it. I can highly recommend it.

Hoofgold — Hufkur — 4 kg — For the love of horses

“Finally found the right thing.”

My horse has been getting Hufkur from Hufgold for about four weeks. Before that, he had another product for four weeks. After a total of eight weeks, his hooves have definitely improved. He also really enjoys eating it. I give him four measuring scoops a day (500 kg horse). It smells very good too.
