Who of you have a shop in the vehicle? Do you sale the products for the hoof care? Who many is important in your bussines? Do you think about the farrier sales products for the hoof care or others products for the horse healty?

I have a new van and I believe the tar or hooves grease bounces do not kicks me.

I sell Hoof Boots ,feed supplement,Disinfectant ,and a hoof oil...when wanted..The supplement sells really well...

I've often thought about selling supplements and whatnot. But to be honest with you I dont know enough about the supplements or dressings on the market... Anyone have any good links to some independent reviews or studies on such things?

Josh, do you think the guys at Tractor Supply are knowledgeable about equine supplements and dressings?

They stock a bunch and let the consumer make the decisions. Best they're likely to offer is the aisle location of the product and a price check.

Don't let a little ignorance keep ya from making a buck. Particularly since in my experience, none of this stuff makes enough difference to the average horse to warrant any serious research.

If you believe you have a market, stock up and add that 20% profit to your revenue stream. Just don't forget that you'll have the tax complications of now being a service provider and a retailer.

Best Luck,
