[QUOTE="dickie, post: 110368, member: 2103"] Thrush is the problem you are describing. Until you get it all cleaned out, it will not allow the hoof to grow back up. What you will need to do is to get a dremel with a small grinding bit, take and go up the crack until you get to the root of the crack. (it will look ugly) Once you get to the root of the crack take some bleach water, in a large syringe and use that to clean out the area. After that take some exopy and seal the area. It can be a long process growing the hoof out. It took my horse 6-8 months to grow the hoof back out. The crack my horse had was all the way to the cornary band. If you do not feel comfortable doing this, find a corrective farrier. [/QUOTE]
