Have you heard of "Thrush B Gone?"
I saw it on FB and contacted them looking for another thrush product to test out.
As you may know, we've been battling Thrush/White Line Disease since Laz's laminitis a few years ago, however he does seem prone to getting thrush hooves despite his clean diet/turnout 24/7/every other day grooming.
Thrush B Gone said they would be happy to mail out a bottle of their solution for us to try, and are excited to see positive results.
I stopped all other brands and applied it today (Sunday 11/10)
I'm to wait 2 days to see a positive change and if need be, re apply.
Most infected hoof: Right Hind
Right Hind after I applied Thrush B Gone
I decided to put it on his club hoof (Right Front) since these vertical cracks have split
And on the frog crack at the center sulcus
And to his Left Hind, that frog had just shed and had some dark spots and crevices so I thought I would soak it
Prior to application, I picked and wire brushed hooves.
Then I just squirted it at infected areas
Fingers crossed!

While I allowed the product to absorb into hoof, I washed Laz's back with his fungal shampoo, allowed that to sit for 10 minutes
and rinsed off. He had a QUICK case of rain rot that popped up.
Laz approved of his spa day

I'll be following up about both the Thrush B Gone and what I think or what results I see, and Laz's rain rot
I'll be 100% honest as always in my review.
I can't wait to see how well it works! What rain rot shampoo are you using? Chrome had some pop up seemingly overnight too! I thought I got it all, but now it's on his chest... ugh!
ReplyDeleteParaguard is shampoo; from my vet.
DeleteLooking forward to your review--we struggle a bit with thrush too so always looking for good stuff! :)
ReplyDeleteDefinitely looking forward to reading the review!!
ReplyDeleteI always love finding new products. Hope it works well for you. :)
ReplyDeleteHoly cannoli, what is going on with those cracks?!?! I've never seen cracks quite that high up before.
ReplyDeleteAnd, lol, I am the rain rot fixer queen, since I live in the freaking rainforest. I really like chlorexadine wash and/or Equiderma (has chlorhexadine in it), ACV w/tea tree oil, or athlete's foot spray.
Athlete's foot spray is my next try if the shampoo/listerine doesn't help....
DeleteLooking forward to this review. Dancer has been dealing with some thrush these last few weeks and I'm looking for products that could be used to prevent thrush even more than curing it. The only thing I've found that works super effectively without killing healthy tissue is ToDay paste, but that's something I use once the horse HAS thrush, not as a regular preventative (on top of good horse keeping practices, of course).
ReplyDeleteI used a paste years ago called Tomorrow, for cow udders...but it did ZERO for us. Laz's condition in his RH is atrocious but the purple Thrush off seemed to help while under his cast. I'm hoping Thrush B gone gets us to the end! :)
