Chronic Equine Skin Issues

June 17, 2019 4 min read

How can COAT DEFENSE® help?

We love our horses. At the end of the day, we just want them to be comfortable, happy, and healthy. Battling chronic equine skin conditions can be a long, stressful, painful process, for us and our horse. COAT DEFENSE® is out to change the way we go about treating these skin problems by creating a product that utilizes natural, readable ingredients. We've created something new for the equine community that can not only help us treat these issues, but prevent them in the first place.

What makes COAT DEFENSE® products different?

  • NO harsh chemicals, only simple ingredients you can read

  • Starves bacteria and fungus of their food source, allowing skin cells to repair themselves

  • Anti-bacterial and Anti-fungal properties PREVENT and TREAT skin issues

  • SAFE and WORRY free solution that can be left on, and used daily

  • Can be used for multiple skin issues on horses, dogs, goats, sheep, cows, and people… all 4 leggers and 2 leggers alike

  • Can be used on tack, blankets, sheets, coolers, harnesses, clothing, in boots and helmets, to stop bacteria from building up, prevent rubs/chafing, and keep everything smelling fresh

  • Can be used to help absorb sweat and keep horses dry and warm during chilly winter rides

 

“We LOVE it!! It cleared up Gidget’s rain rot super fast! We’ve been using the powder as a preventative on Gidget’s back after rides and it has really kept the rain rot at bay. So it’s worth the purchase!” – LeeAnn Stone Johnson, Facebook Review

What is COAT DEFENSE® daily PREVENTATIVE POWDER?

Is used BEFORE the skin is heavily inflamed or broken. COAT DEFENSE® daily PREVENTATIVE POWDER can be used as a barrier against skin and coat ailments, while also treating the early stages of fungus and bacteria buildup.

  • As a dry shampoo that allows retention of natural oils, super handy if it’s too cold, or water unavailable on a trail ride

  • Soothing, Deodorizing  Dry Shampoo for Dogs. Great for keeping them smelling fresh in between professional grooms!

  • Safe for dealing with fungal problems on /in dog face and ears…(kills earmites!)

 “I can not thank COAT DEFENSE® enough for their immediate response to my desperate seek for help! This could not have happened at a worse time! Rain, nasty mud and fear of a staph in stagnant water and unmucked stalls. I continued to clean and wrap and apply antibiotic ointment until I was overwhelmed with proud flesh, but in fear of exposing to the nasty elements at hand.  COAT DEFENSE® rescued my horse!  I’m so grateful. Within a day or two samples arrived at my home. I applied everyday or every other day to the affected areas and washed the wound with water and betadine as necessary.  The results are excellent  as you can see!!!! THANK YOU!” — SHANAN MAJORS, CALIFORNIA “I can not thank COAT DEFENSE® enough for their immediate response to my desperate seek for help!
