They're back!!
It's been a long wait but we finally have the green light from the FDA to start making and selling our Thorn Ridge Ranch® Hoof Oil and ZoZo's Grooming Cream again. We've notified everyone on the waiting list and are taking pre-orders on the cream. The hoof oil is in stock already. Thanks for your patience while we waited!
Thorn Ridge Ranch's ZoZo’s Grooming Cream was created and developed by our co-founder, Melissa Alvarez at her family’s horse breeding facility, Top Hat Friesians, for their Friesian mare Zoey fan Top Hat (ZoZo) who had numerous coat conditions due to the heat, humidity, and bugs in South Florida. Melissa researched, developed, and tested ZoZo’s Grooming Cream on Zoey over a period of five years until she finally created the perfect barrier cream that worked consistently as a protective bandage over Zoey’s coat and skin, and shielded it while Zoey’s body healed any scratches, sores, or cuts that she had acquired.
ZoZo’s Grooming Cream contains a lot of exceptional ingredients including Kaolin clay, zinc, plant oils, essential oils, and vitamin E to name a few. It works to keep a horse’s coat in top condition by creating a protective barrier on areas of the coat and skin. ZoZo’s Grooming Cream works in two ways. Once applied on troubled or irritated areas of the coat or skin, like scrapes or wounds, and left uncovered, the grooming cream hardens to become a barrier bandage that covers and protects the area to give the horse’s body time to heal itself. The hardened barrier bandage will remain in place until it gradually falls off, or until you either brush it off or hose it off with water. Secondly, if you have an area where you’ve applied the grooming cream but you also want to wrap the area with traditional elastic vet wraps, self-adhesive wrap bandages, dressings, or any other type of bandage, the grooming cream will stay soft because it’s not exposed to the air and it will provide an added layer of protection between the horse’s coat and the bandages while the horse heals itself. ZoZo’s Grooming Cream is light and fluffy, and it smells great too.
