Hoof-Stuff plugs deep holes and cracks that leave hooves susceptible to dirt infiltration. Active ingredients cleanse and natural fibres create pressure to support and promote healthy, natural tissue growth.
The fibrous, sticky consistency helps Hoof-Stuff stay in place so the active agents can provide lasting support to healthy tissues.
Hoof-Stuff can be useful for the protection of white line cracks, central sulcus separation, cavities and grass cracks. For shallower, wider cracks, try Artimud.
For deeper cavities and abscess tracts that may go deeper than can be easily seen, we recommend only using Hoof-Stuff under the instruction of your vet or hoof care professional. In these situations it is important to ensure all packing is removed on a regular basis and before adding more material to avoid causing a buildup.

Should I use Hoof-Stuff or Artimud?
Hoof Stuff is generally used where the crevice is deeper and able to retain a fabric based pack. As a general rule deep & narrow = Hoof Stuff, shallow & wide = Artimud.
As a test see if damp cotton wool will pack into the crack, if it will Hoof Stuff will work best, if not opt for Artimud.

All of the ingredients we use in Hoof-Stuff are naturally occuring and have been chosen either for their active properties or to improve the consistency of the product.
Minerals
Powerful but gentle minerals to give an ideal consistency, cleanse the area and support healthy tissues.
Honey
With its many amazing active properties and a sticky consistency to help Hoof-Stuff stay in place.
Natural fibres
To keep the other ingredients in contact with hoof tissues in cavities and create pressure to support natural tissue growth.
Pick out and clean feet if necessary, use Sole Cleanse or salt water to flush any debris from the cavity to be packed. Allow to dry or use wadding to dry as much as possible. Push small sections of Hoof-Stuff deep into the cavity with a hoof pick, avoiding causing sensitivity. It is best not to pack the cavity all the way to the surface and in frog cavities to allow cracks to close in behind it – this helps the packing stay in. We suggest removing the packing after 2 days, if it comes out clean it may be left in longer next time and if it comes out dirty it is best to change it more often. Avoid getting the cavity wet before packing unless it needs to be flushed due to dirt infiltration.
For deeper cavities and abscess tracts that may go deeper than can be easily seen we recommend only using Hoof-Stuff under the instruction of your vet or hoof care professional. In these situations it is important to ensure all packing is removed on a regular basis and before adding more material to avoid causing a buildup.
What should I flush it out with?
We recommend flushing with Sole Cleanse but anything ‘gentle’ will suffice e.g. salt water, dilute vinegar etc. Avoid flushing with peroxide, bleaches, iodine etc. as these may damage otherwise healthy tissues.
How do I know if I am replacing it often enough?
If you remove the pack and it is still bright white and clean then you likely do not need to replace it as often. If it has become discoloured then you should replace it more often. We suggest replacing the packing after 24 hours initially, then altering according to state of the packing.
Should I flush the crevice every time I replace the Hoof-Stuff?
Once the crevice has been flushed it will not be necessary to clean it out again if it does not get dirt in it (i.e. if the Hoof-Stuff is staying in place). Hoof-Stuff will stick better in a dry crevice.
Should I use Hoof-Stuff or Artimud?
Hoof Stuff is generally used where the crevice is deeper and able to retain a fabric based pack. As a general rule deep & narrow = Hoof Stuff, shallow & wide = Artimud.
As a test see if damp cotton wool will pack into the crack, if it will Hoof Stuff will work best, if not opt for Artimud.
How can I soften up Hoof-Stuff?
Hoof-Stuff will be harder when cold and softer when warm, over time the honey in it may also crystalise hardening it. Putting it somewhere warm for a long period of time will help soften it again.
'Storm'
‘Storm’ an 8 year old eventer was stopping at even very small fences for no apparent reason after previously having been a reliable jumping horse. Vets, farriers and multiple instructors had failed to identify the problem.
On inspection he was found to have deep central sulcus cracks in all four feet, which were likely to be making him uncomfortable especially when taking off and landing.
Storm had his feet packed with Hoof-Stuff a couple of times a week, sometimes less often.
As the cracks grew out (after about 4 months) sufficiently that the Hoof-Stuff would not stay in Artimud was used instead. As the cracks healed (in 3 feet totally, with the 4th still improving) and closed up he not only started jumping and regrowing his confidence again but also showed increased forwardness and length of stride in his flatwork.
“As soon as we started using Red Horse Products we saw a huge improvement in Storm’s performance and we have not looked back since. Storm is a different horse and we are now out successfully eventing regularly and progressing nicely. Your amazing products have made all the difference – Storm would never have had a future as an eventer without you!”
'Cody'
Cody is a 15 year old Quarter Horse, shod in front and barefoot behind. Based in North Carolina, USA
Cody suddenly developed large cracks on both front feet about 3 years ago for no apparent reason.
The owner tried treating the area with bleach water as well as packing with Keratex Hoof putty. She didn’t see any improvement.
Later she started cleaning the cracks with wire a brush and fine pointed tool, applying Sole Cleanse and letting it dry, then packing with Hoof Stuff and covering with duct tape to help keep product in place. She did this 2-3 times a week.
Four months later the cracks have almost totally grown out.
“I attribute Cody’s new hoof health to the diligent use of Hoof Stuff. My farrier had offered me a free shoeing if I was able to get rid of the cracks which he never expected would be resolved. He couldn’t be happier, and neither could I!”
