Eek -- a crack like that looks painful. A crack doesn't "grow back together," right? The hoof has to grow out past the cracked part?

Curious, How come no drain or thermal barrier ?

When I work on hooves like this I prefer to find the real reason for the crack (which always is an imbalance in the hoof capsule) and correct it by trimming. My experience is that quarter crack comes from the bars. High heels and large bars make the back part of the hoof very stiff compared to the front part and the hoof wall brakes in between. By lowering the heels and bringing the bars back where they belong the crack stops moving and heals by it self.

This is very similar to how you fix a turtle with a smashed carapace :D

After watching this video, we used this method and product to repair a crack in our horse's hoof that she had for a couple of years. It worked wonders. We are now using the same method on our other horse that had an injury just above the hairline that traveled down into her hoof. Thank you Ian, great video and product.

We are actually looking into a superior glue to this, I've tried it on a couple of horses and it holds even tighter
