Fairly priced and kind to the environment. The right tools, practical guidance, proven results. Based in Devizes, Wiltshire, we're a small company primarily producing health and grooming products for horses and dogs. We've been creating and developing skin protection products for over 10 years. From a starting point of needing high quality, affordable products for our own horses, ponies and dogs, we moved on to providing them to friends and riding club members before finally launching them onto the market in 2010. Our original aim remains: selling quality products that actually work at prices that people can afford. A policy of monitoring and development, often following all-important feedback from our customers, means that we constantly improve and refine our product range.

🍂 MALLENDERS & SALLENDERS: UNDERSTANDING HYPERKERATOSIS

Have you noticed dry, thickened or scaly patches around your horse's knees or hocks?

Mallenders and sallenders are terms used to describe skin changes commonly associated with hyperkeratosis, a build-up of keratin in the outer layer of the skin.

🔎 What should you look for?

Signs include flaky skin, thickening, scaly skin and, in more developed cases, crusting or cracking.

🌿 Supporting healthy skin

A consistent care routine matters. Keep affected areas clean and dry where practical, avoid harsh scrubbing, and use suitable skin-care products to help condition dry skin and maintain suppleness.

Remember, not every dry or scaly patch is hyperkeratosis. Other skin conditions can look similar, so seek veterinary advice if changes persist or the skin becomes painful, inflamed or weepy.

🐴 Save this post as a handy reference for your horse's skin-care routine.

✨ Bear's fresh clip gets the thumbs up.✨

Jayne decided to try Flick ’n’ Swish conditioning spray as a pre-clip spray to help prepare Bear's coat - and was delighted with the results.

Here's what Jayne had to say:

⭐ "I just wanted to tell you how delighted I am with the latest of your products I’ve tried - Flick 'n' Swish.
I have already tried most of your products in the Sweet Relief Range and Sweatbuster.
I thought I’d try it as a pre-clip spray in order to prep Bear's coat.
I’m delighted with how easy the clip was and how nice it looked afterward.
Maybe I’m biased as I love Bear but here he is without any further brushing or sprays!"

Thank you, Jayne, for sharing your lovely feedback and photo with us. 💚

🍂 Mite-y Product Guide: Autumn & Winter Skin Care 🐴

Did you know that mites become a particular concern for horses during the autumn and winter months?

Horses grow thicker winter coats in colder weather creating a warm, sheltered environment where mites can thrive. Horses with feathered legs may be particularly susceptible to Chorioptes mites which can cause skin issues.

Behavioural signs to look out for include rubbing, stamping and biting, while the skin itself can become flaky, scaly and crusty, particularly around the lower legs and feathering.

💚 Which Biteback product is right for your horse?

Our guide highlights three options to support your horse’s skin care routine:

🌿 Sweet Relief Cream - Highly concentrated, ultra-slippery formula that forms a barrier on the skin, moisturising dry, flaky areas while soothing itch.

💧 Sweet Relief Lotions & Flowers and Zinc Powder - Easy daily application, coating the hair and forming a protective barrier to mites.

🩶 Sweet Relief Silver Cream - Formulated with ionic silver to help soothe and support the skin’s natural healing process when needed

🍂 Top tip: Autumn and winter are ideal times to pay closer attention to your horse’s skin beneath thick coats and feathering. Regular checks can help you spot changes early.

🍂 FEATHER MITES: WHAT TO LOOK OUT FOR

As autumn turns to winter, your horse's feathered legs may need a little extra attention.

Feather mites, including Chorioptes mites, can cause changes to the skin around the fetlocks. Longer, denser feathers can make it harder to spot early signs, so regular checks are important.

🔎 Look out for:
• Stamping or rubbing the legs
• Itching around the fetlocks
• Scaly skin, crusts or scabs

🌿 A consistent management routine matters. Keep grooming equipment clean, inspect beneath the feathers regularly and support healthy skin and coat condition.

If you suspect mites, speak to your vet to help identify the cause and establish an appropriate management plan.

Remember, not every itchy or scaly leg is caused by mites.

Save this guide for your winter horse-care routine. 🐴
