Whether it's a small cut or a minor graze, horse wounds should always be treated quickly, effectively and with the correct treatment. Throughout the life of a recreational or professional horse rider, your animal will likely run into the odd scrape - most of the time it won't be serious but you'll want to keep it that way.
Everyday injuries left untreated can easily become long-term problems such as infections and lesions - resulting in costly veterinary care and periods of recovery that you'll absolutely want to avoid. In our latest blog, Waterman's Country Supplies have compiled some of the very best wound care products you need to tackle injuries whenever they appear. From protective wound care sprays to sunburn soother, insect bite treatments to natural plant extracts, find everything you need to take care of your horse today.
