Questions & Answers

12 Customer Questions


What are the feeding directions? Will this help with a horse suffering with severe laminitis?

Answer by ChewyFeb 14, 2022
In general, it is recommended to feed as a topdress, 6 ounces (0.37 lbs) or 3 level scoops per day. There are many factors that contribute to a horse with severe laminitis. The nutrients in the tough as nails provide amino acids and biotin for hoof growth and support, anti-inflammatory support, and hoof structure repair and can help support this affliction. The overall diet should be assessed as well to further support the horse as this will not cure a horse with chronic or diet related laminitis. We always recommend consulting with your veterinarian to help determine if this supplement would be appropriate for your individual horse.

my mares hoofs have started seeming sore on her fronts. will this help with soreness?

Answer by ChewyAug 30, 2021
This pelleted supplement provides essential nutrients including biotin, calcium and iodine for strong and healthy hooves. Great for horses with poor hoof quality, those prone to fungal infections and for the recovery of healthy horses after exercise. Biotin has been shown to improve hoof health with long-term use.

How many ounces is in one scoop? Have different size/weight of horses. Need to adjust accordingly. Thanks.

Answer by ChewyDec 16, 2021
Each scoop is approximately 2 ounces.

Can this be used for dogs to strengthen their nails? My dogs nails rip a lot from exercise.

Answer by ChewyJul 22, 2020

Absolutely love this product but had to discontinue due to the molasses. Work great on my one horse that has no sensitivity to molasses. Feet improved 100% within a very short time and even built top Line! However, for my horses that have insulin resistance and crushings it had the opposite effect. Would purchase it again if it was molasses free. If you have an average horse or competitive horse with no problems this is a great product and I would recommend it for those horses.

I've tried other hood supplements, and in my opinion this is the best on the market. I've been using it for a few months now, and the improvement already is just amazing! We've gone from hardly being able to walk on rocks or hard ground, to walking over it with no problem! Mine are OTTB's with typical bad feet, and I'm pleased to be able to get rid of the shoes and go barefoot finally. Highly recommend this product!

A few months ago I really honed in on my nutrition program for my horses. They’re all off the Trackers or rescues so I’m no stranger to hoof problems. I added tough as nails a few months back and even my farrier has commented on how great their hooves now are. I’ve seen thicker hoof walls, better sole growth, and overall just better hoof health. Are their cheaper products? Sure, but I don’t mind the price on this for the results I have gotten. I love tribute products so this is one I trust and will continue to use in my feed program!

I purchased this product for my miniature mule who has soft hooves and who was going through some thrush issues. Along with treating topically with a thrush treatment I began the Tribute Tough as Nails. It smells very good and he eats his portion with no reluctance. My mule has been on the supplement for two months and my farrier has noticed nice new growth on the hooves with a stronger structure to them. I now have my miniature mare on the product as well and she, a picky eater, eats it with no issue.

If this is 44.99 for one 11 lb bag then this is highly over priced! I pay $27.59 at my local feed store for one 11lb bag. It is a great product and has helped my horses hooves but couldn’t afford to buy it from chewy at their current price. I also use the Tribute horse feed and it is great!

This has been a game changer for both my Friesians. They had issues with dry hooves/cracking and splitting during the summer months. Even the best hoof dressings weren't making much of a difference. One month of this was night and day. My farrier asked what I'd been using so he could start recommending it. He's been doing this for over 25 years.

I had a mare that was super thin soled and required shoes year round. after a couple weeks on his supplement, i pulled her shoes and she was sound. She has been on it for about 6 months and the farrier has said she will not need shoes. She has grown a substantial amount of sole and is sound to the hoof testers.

I put one of my horses on this supplement about 6 months ago. The blacksmith keeps telling me his feet look great each time he shoes him. This horse has been through a bad case of white line disease has had thin soles. I also put Keratex hoof hardener on the outside of his hoof (but not the sole per blacksmith instructions). This horse also eats it right up. Well worth it!
