"My horse has always had healthy feet, but on occasion they chip or crack. I started using rain maker (once or twice a week) and his feet are healthier than ever, never crack, and never chip! I stopped shoeing him and just keep him barefoot now! It is a little pricey, but it definitely can save you money! To bad some gets stuck at the bottom and you can't get it all out... But a can lasts a long long time!"

"The consistency changes depending on the weather. It does do a good job of protecting hooves though. I just don't like how it gets so jelly-like, once you have used most of it it sticks to the bottom of the jar."

"I've used this dressing on my horse's bulbs and underside of their feet when the weather is really hot and dry. It seems to protect and moisturize from dryness and cracking, preventing existing chips from getting worse. I like to apply it right after riding and untacking, giving the feet about 10-15 minutes to soak up the hoof dressing before walking back to her stall (which by that point prevents it from just coming off with the dirt when she walks). I would probably recommend this product."

"I like to put this on in the spring and fall during the "muddy season" since my horse's feet dry out the most then. I like to put it on and let is soak in for 10-15 minutes before I let him get shavings all over it in his stall. It works well to put it on before giving them a bath because then it sticks and doesn't wash off."

"I know a lot of people at the barn who use this, but I have recently given mine away and switched to another hoof conditioner. Rain Maker does do a good job of keeping your horse's hooves from getting soaked during bathing, but I found that it tends to leave a layer of buildup if used daily. The smell is terrible - I call it bad barbeque sauce. The consistency also changes greatly with the weather, and in the summer it can get so thin that it drips everywhere.
I guess that it is fine for occasional use to protect feet in the wash stall, but I switched to a product that does not contain animal proteins.

"Rain Maker is thick enough to apply just where you want it yet thin enough where it doesnt cake on heavy. The heat for the hoof softens this product so I feel I'm not wasting it as the oils tend to spill. Stays put turned out better then any other so I know it has a chance to do its job!!"

"I love rain maker! Easy to apply, and keeps my horse's feet in great condition. But, it gets a little hard in the winter if it's kept in the cold (obviously), and, unfortunately the brush doesn't reach the bottom of the can! Regardless, this is my favorite! Much better than others I have tried!"

"I always use Rainmaker on my mare. It is thicker than the other brands, and stays on longer. She always gets compliments from my farrier on her great feet! My ONLY complaint is they don't make the brush long enough, so you can never get it all out of the can!"

"This hoof supplement/moisturizer has been recommended by both my farrier and veterinarian for the use of cracking/split hooves and the prevention of both. I have had great farrier visits since using this product consistently. He is even barefoot in the back now!"
