Promotional feature with NAF
With the extreme wet and dry we tend to see throughout our seasons, we have to take into account how this impacts hoof health and what can be done to support this process. Day to day threats include dry stable bedding and wet turnout, which can create an extreme increase and decrease of moisture content resulting in a weakening of overall hoof integrity.

A farrier’s must-have
TRUSTED AND TRIALLED TO OFFER DAILY PROTECTION
Andrew James AWCF Master Farrier: “After using Farrier Dressing and the Farrier Solution by PROFEET there has been a notable improvement in hoof quality, soundness and better shoeing cycles. It also produces a great finish to hooves to complete the shoeing process and I would recommend to all my clients to help support hoof quality all-round.”
Nigel Brown AWCF Master Farrier: “Farrier Dressing by PROFEET has received great feedback from our customers who are happy with the packaging, consistency and product results. We have witnessed an improvement in horn quality on those horses whose owners have applied the dressing regularly. The dressing is easily and cleanly applied and does not leave an unnecessary residue while continuing to work on the feet throughout the day. We are now applying it to complete each shoeing appointment as a matter of course.”
BFBA and NAF join forces for nutritional partnership to support farriers
Huw Dyer AWCF, President of the British Farriers and Blacksmiths Association (BFBA): “As NAF are official suppliers to the British Equestrian teams, and with over 30 years’ experience formulating and the continual development of their large portfolio of both supplements, applications and veterinary support, we could not imagine a better fit when it comes to nutritional solutions for our farriers.
“We recognise NAF’s Clean Sport mantra, which endorses their quality control methods that are some of the strictest in the industry, not just in the UK but on a global scale. All in all we hope this new relationship provides a vital tool for our farriers to turn to when they require a trusted nutritional solution.”
