EQUUS SELECT

TEA TREE OIL BASED PRODUCTS Antibacterial, Antifungal, Antiviral T-HOOF MEDICATED HOOF OIL

T-SUL MEDICATED CREAM

is an excellent aid in the treatment of thrush, white line disease and dry hooves. Great aid for any bacterial or fungal hoof problem. It won’t stain your hands. Tea Tree Oil is excellent at killing bacteria and fungus. Also contains a topical pain reliever. Use daily until clear. Works well as a preventative. Excellent as a hoof conditioner.

is simply the best medicated cream you will ever use. T-Sul uses Tea Tree Oil, Sulfur, Zinc Oxide and Glycerin in natural Olive Oil and Bees Wax base. T-Sul does not sting. It’s fantastic for scratches, cuts, scrapes, ringworm, rain rot, mud fever and any bacterial or fungal rash or infection. Try it on your dog’s hot spots.

To order T-Hoof and T-Sul call (313) 320-0696 or go to www.equusselect.com Equus Select LLC, 1657 Aline Drive, Grosse Pointe Woods, MI 48236

Look what people are saying about T-Sul & T-Hoof! Nothing has gotten rid of my horse’s scratches as well as T-Sul. He gets them every year, so I have practice. ~ Val J. I bought a horse with a bad case of scratches, not knowing he had it. The first year I got medicine from the vet and it didn’t make any kind of change. I discovered your T-Sul product two years ago and the MSU Expo and started treating his feet. MAN – what a difference! ~ Carolyn P. T-Sul has performed better than any other topical dressing I have used in 35 years with horses. ~ Andrew M. Used the medicated hoof oil, T-Hoof, for thrush and it cleared it right up! ~ Elise S. I love the T-Hoof for my horses because it eliminates the threat of thrush immediately and it conditions the hoof. ~ Jan B. Used T-Sul on awful cuts for horse, dogs, people – cured scratches on drafts, got rid of ear infection in dog. Works really well on scars and injuries to heal well and pretty. ~ Julie B. T-Sul worked wonders! Cured my horse’s rain rot and saw hair growth immediately! ~ Sabrina N. My horse had chronic thrush that I could not resolve until using T-Hoof! Now he is thrush free! ~ Mary D. White Line disease – treated it once a day for about four days with T-Hoof and it was gone. ~ Larry F.

BUILD A BETTER BARN At MD Barnmaster, we’ve spent thirty years perfecting our product, and the result out-performs the average barn in every way. A better barn is chew-proof, kick-proof and darn near fire-proof. It can handle heavy snow loads, high winds, and tooth-rattling earthquakes. Most importantly, your MD Barnmaster barn provides you a hassle-free ownership experience with a name you can trust.
