Maybe even with some casting to help stabilize hoof wall. If you can get it really clean, then use "long term" dressing for 3-5 days between changes. But I think an important part is the pressure - a gauze roll or dressing sponge. <br />BTW, I have a bunch of Aquaphor - which is like petroleum gauze but easier to wrrk with.DesertHorseshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13230748414450244363noreply@blogger.com
