Tubbease Hoof Sock

Breathable Hoof Soaking & Poultice Sock

The Shoof Tubbease Hoof Sock is designed to make soaking or poulticing a hoof hassle-free, with a breathable design that allows proper drainage and drying.

Ideal for treating abscesses, thrush, seedy toe, thin soles, cracks and fissures and general deterioration of the hoof.

Secured with the included Velcro strap. Replacement straps are available.

Soak Without Stewing

Tubbease was developed by Shoof International Ltd from a concept by New Zealand farrier Erin Hampson-Tindale, who wanted a way to soak or poultice a hoof without "stewing" it, as often happens with waterproof boots.

A variety of treatments, poultices or bandages can be applied with the hoof, or liquid treatment can be poured into or over the sock once it is on. The breathable sock lets liquid enter and soak the hoof, then drain and dry out.

An easily made remedy is two tablespoons of zinc sulphate (available from your vet or chemist) mixed into one litre of water. Epsom salts is another option.

Fit & Care

Always secure Tubbease with the Velcro strap supplied – a bandage is not suitable or adequate. Replacement straps are available.

Tubbease Hoof Socks are not enduring boots. They are for short-term use in confined enclosures by restrained animals, and judgement should be exercised.

Seek veterinary or farrier advice for hoof conditions that do not improve.
