Cowslips are the leading prosthetic device for treating
lameness in New Zealand dairy cows. Developed in the UK by Dr Ernie Logan in
the late 1980s, Cowslips are now trusted and widely used by farmers and
veterinarians around the world. Plus is suitable for Holsteins, Friesians, and Beef breeds.
Before application, lift and clean the hoof, ensuring the
cause of the lameness is correctly identified. The Cowslip should always be
fitted to the healthy claw after any necessary treatment of the affected area.
Applying the Cowslip to the sound claw relieves weight-bearing pressure on the
damaged claw, allowing it to heal naturally.
Once fitted correctly, the Cowslip will remain securely in
place and will shed naturally after two to three weeks, by which time recovery
is typically complete.
Cowslips are available in three sizes to suit different
breeds and body weights:
