Skin Care

Horses can develop skin issues that take a lot of maintenance to heal. Whether you're treating a simple wound, or trying to get control over a bad case of scratches, The Cheshire Horse has natural and medicated skin care products to help you out.

To treat wounds, we carry a variety of salves and antibacterial ointments. A product like Fiske's Skin and Wound Salve will treat a wound with 100% natural ingredients, cooling and cleansing any problem spot. For a different approach to healing, with antiseptic qualities, Leovet Silver Ointment uses silver ions, along with other natural ingredients, to calm and heal infected areas.

Common skin problems often specifically affect horses' genital areas. If they aren't cleaned properly on a regular basis, sheaths and udders can take on any number of uncomfortable issues. We carry products like Farnam Excalibur Sheath Cleaner for Horses and Equiderma Sheath, Udder and Genital Cleanser to help you maintain these sensitive areas.

Some horses develop skin issues all over that benefit from antibacterial and antifungal treatment. The Cheshire Horse carries a wide variety of medicated topical sprays, ointments, and shampoos to treat many of these surface issues. An all-purpose spray like Shapley's Original M-T-G spray can be a convenient treatment, while a potent medicated shampoo, like CalmCoat Ketoconazole 1% and Chlorhexidine 2% Medicated Shampoo, works well as an occasional deep cleanser.

Does your horse simply have dry skin? We also carry gentle moisturizers like Bag Balm, Durvet DuraCream, and EQyss Premier Spray.
