Pasterns often
become crusty
and scabby when
'mud season'
turns paddocks
into soupy messes.
But left untreated,
a simple case of
scratches can
escalate into a
painful, chronic
condition.
For your horse’s sake, resist the urge to try scratches remedies you haven’t heard of before. Many unconventional preparations don't work; others may do more harm than good.
