Why Fiskes is referred to as “100 years of Horse Care”?
The formula for Fiske’s was developed by a rural veterinarian from Paradise, Nova Scotia in the late 1890’s. Before his death, Dr. Simms’s gave the formula to Leon Fiske who became the guardian of the recipe since the 1960s; in turn Leon passed the formula to his daughter Melanie Fiske before his death in 2004. The recipe has remained unchanged since its early development over 100 years. The product was developed to treat the topical needs of livestock, the hoof, skin disease and infections such as ring worm, galls, boils, cuts, scratches, rain rot, mud fever, utter balm and burns. The product is a very effective hoof treatment both for preventative and restorative hoof care health as explained by David Hayne.
