Coat Defense Daily Preventative Powder for Horses - Safe & Effective Equine Sweet Itch, Skin Funk, Scratches, & Rain Rot Treatment - Dry Shampoo for Horses, 8 oz Formula with All Natural Ingredients

Excellent product

Like a dry shampoo for horses! Works fast. Amazing product - especially for the winter when you need to make sure your sweaty horses are dry before putting their blankets back on! Just shake some of this on and brush it in!

Works great on my musty bully lol an it smell great. I order the house one cause I don't like the smell of saddlewood

From jump, things were disappointing. One of my horses had some rain rot, so I ordered two bottles. This product isn't cheap, so when my package arrived and one of the bottles was open in the shipping envelope and product was EVERYWHERE, well, losing twenty five dollars of product right off the bat left a bad taste in my mouth. The way this is packaged and shipped leaves a lot to be desired, especially since, given the product's ingredients, the profit margin on this has to be enormous. Perhaps some tape or shrink wrapping is in order?Out in the barn, this stuff pours fast, so you have to be very careful and precise with your application. Either the holes in the dispenser top need to be smaller, or a different container should be used. I taped off some of the holes because the bottles are very small and it's far too easy to over-pour, making unnecessary wastage a huge problem. You'll want to have a game plan in place to use this as efficiently as possible, and perhaps put this in a different container entirely for application.Having said everything about the packaging for shipping that's sorely lacking and the tiny, less than ideal product container the manufacturer is using to package the actual product, it does work. My horse had some fairly large patches, and within a few days, he was healing noticeably and had new hair popping up. Unfortunately, I needed that wasted bottled lost to a shipping disaster, and one bottle wasn't quite enough. (Once he started healing and I was able to bathe and dry him thoroughly, we didn't need the powder, so we made do.)Pros - It's effective. The powder is a less messy alternative than sticky or smelly products (MTG, I'm looking at you!), and it's great for those times when it's too cold or late to bathe. Simple ingredients.CONS: Very expensive. Containers are far too small for horses, much less barns with multiple horses. The packaging for shipping is non-existent, so failure of packaging in shipping is a legitimate concern. The product packaging isn't great for application. There's not enough product for the intended audience: horse people with multiple horses who want to keep this on-hand in their barn. There don't appear to be any proprietary ingredients, so it may be worth your while to collect ingredients individually and make your own if you have multiple horses.While I love the powder formula, can attest unequivocally to its effectiveness, and how easy it is to use to treat rain rot, I wouldn't purchase again unless I found it deeply discounted and could insure it would reach me intact. It turned out to not be a good value for me personally due to packaging fails, overall cost, and far too small amount of product vs expense. I have a barn full of seven of my own horses but can't afford to keep this on hand. A bulk option at a discounted price would prompt me to reconsider, though!

My pony seemed to develop a sensitivity to the strong fly spray I was using. Was itching on everything he could find. I got this for him and sprinkled it on him and rubbed it in with a curry. I had to repeat later on in the day, but he stopped itching and I bought him Natural Fly Spray.

tried this for my horse's dermatitis. It's not easy to apply and didn't seem to work as well as products I tried that worked.

Due to unproperly sealed the bottle lid had loosened and some of the product came out and so I lost some of my product in the bag it was packaged in. Would have lived a replacement bottle. The stuff is expensive for such a small bottle for a big animal. Product does work on my horse though. Could you possibly send me another bottle due to product loss?

It's great to sprinkle on the area needed to soothe
