Hi All, I tried to send a reply to Teresa and RC yesterday but evidently it didn't go through. I had the same questions re: dry hooves on my horses and asked my farrier what he used last week. He said he has had great success with "used motor oil". I personally have not verified this by seeing his horses or seeing him do it. Has anyone heard of this "cheap" method and would there be any detrimental effects??? I won't try it until there is more info. Thanks, Lindak
