Friesian Expert Oil is a specialized product designed to maintain the health of Friesian horses' legs and skin. It's based on a traditional remedy used for working horses, helping to prevent issues like mites, mud fever, itching, and skin irritation. The oil is recommended by experts like Grand Prix dressage rider Marc-Peter Spahn.
It comes in various sizes, ranging from 32 oz to 10 liters, with prices starting at $70. The oil is applied to the skin to promote healing and prevent further damage, and it doesn't need to be washed out before the next treatment.

My family owns Macias Corral Friesians, and we have been breeding and importing Friesians for over 10 years!

I’m excited to work with FHANA and help others fall in love with these amazing horses!

Beautiful day today for spa day for Wylster 463 Sport Elite AAA. We love this stallion! I wonder if Wylster has the longest mane of all approved stallions?

What’s one sentence that makes you immediately realize someone knows nothing about horses? Ours? “A horse is laying down- must be dead because horses don’t lay down.” Yeah right…just napping 😊
