Farrier Review: Glushu for laminitis

Laminitis is a painful and challenging condition that affects many horses, often requiring careful management and specialised shoeing. Even with the best shoeing practices, horses remain vulnerable to further laminitis episodes. The Huf-Reha Team, expert farriers with years of experience, have shared how they use Glushu glue on horseshoes to support laminitic horses effectively with many posts on their Facebook Page - check it out. Their approach combines comfort, precision, and innovation to improve the lives of horses suffering from this condition.

From Huf-Reha Team

“Laminitis is a terrible condition – even with comfortable shoeing, a horse is not immune to another laminitis attack. Unfortunately, it can be noticed late because shoeing compensates for a lot of discomfort.

Thanks to X-rays, individual trimming can then be easily implemented ready for new shoes.

How Glushu Supports Laminitic Horses

Huf-Reha Team has used Glushu for many years and found it especially helpful for laminitic horses. Here are some key benefits they have observed:

• Improved Comfort: Glushu glue creates a strong bond without rigid nails, reducing pressure points and discomfort.

• Secure Attachment: The adhesive holds shoes firmly in place, even on fragile or damaged hooves.

• Adaptability: Glushu allows for easier adjustments and replacements, which is crucial for horses needing frequent shoeing changes.

• Protection: The Glushu helps protect sensitive hoof tissues by distributing weight more evenly.
