Hoof care can be a stressful experience for many horses, especially those with sensitive conditions like laminitis. Traditional shoeing methods often involve nailing, which can cause discomfort and anxiety. For horses that react negatively to this process, finding a gentler alternative is essential. Glushu glue offers a promising solution by providing a quiet, non-invasive way to attach shoes, allowing horses to stay calm and comfortable during hoof care.
Thank you the expert Farriers at Huf-Reha Team for sharing how they utilise Glushu glue on horse shoes on laminitic clients who are nervous of traditional nail on shoes.

From Huf-Reha Team:
“We have been using Glushu for nearly 10 years now and we can assure you it is one of the best ways to allow a hoof to grow back undisturbed.
In addition to this Glushu is fantastic for horses that are nervous of or suffer pain during shoeing. This horse had laminitis, and was always sedated before shoeing her hind hooves because she reacted to the nailing by kicking.
Because Glushu does not involve hammering and nailing which can be distressing for some horses the Glue on option is perfect. Quiet and non invasive this horse had no problems with the shoeing and did not need sedation.”
Benefits of Using Glushu Glue for Nervous Horses
Non-invasive application: Glushu glue attaches shoes without nails or hammering, reducing stress and pain.
Supports hoof health: The glue allows the hoof to grow naturally without interference.
Reduces need for sedation: Horses that previously required sedation for shoeing can often avoid it.
Quick and quiet process: The shoeing procedure is faster and less noisy, which helps keep horses calm.
Versatile use: Suitable for horses with laminitis and those nervous about traditional shoeing.
These benefits make Glushu an excellent choice for farriers and horse owners looking for a safer, more comfortable shoeing option.
