Now I just have to tackle the whitening issue :) And trying to help the growth that is already there!
My trimmer who works on his hooves is greatly pleased because she said his hooves are better than ever and I hadn't told her the nutrition changes until she said that :)
It was a slow process but after many years of owning different breeds I've finally learned that the more natural the betters seems to be the help for many things!

I have tried all the oils and mane and tail products and the Listerine treatment and nothing is working. He doesn't rub anymore but it still is so dry and brittle. So.....what are some products that might work well?
