For winter riding, apply the wax to the bottom of the hoof and along the shoe rims to prevent \"snowballing.\" It is also highly effective when applied to the frog and coronary band to maintain moisture balance and prevent cracks in both shod and barefoot horses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Is the 60g tin sufficient for a full-sized horse?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: The 60g (2.1 oz) jar is considered the \"Regular\" size and is perfect for spot treatments (ears, jaw, and tail) or for use on stable dogs. While it can be used on hooves, equestrian buyers often use this size as a trial or for specific medicinal barriers, as a full four-hoof application will consume the product faster than dog paw usage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How does the \"breathable\" formula benefit my horse compared to hoof oils?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Unlike heavy oils that can \"smother\" the hoof, Musher’s Secret is semi-permeable. This technical specification is vital because it allows the hoof to breathe and perspiration to escape naturally while still blocking out environmental irritants like salt, sand, and excess moisture.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mushers Secret","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42250539106525,"sku":"656322356075","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/8748\/7965\/files\/7523350642909_hires.webp?v=1793416853","url":"https:\/\/hoovesandpaws.com\/products\/mushers-secret-paw-protection-wax-dog-moisturizer-invisible-boots-snow","provider":"Hooves and Paws","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
