Overview

Why We Love This

Original M-T-G has been providing quick and effective relief from numerous skin ailments since 1938! Originally formulated for humans, this safe and easy to use product is the only one needed for relief from a variety of bacterial and fungal skin problems.

Original M-T-G provides results after just one application! Formulated to eliminate the causative agent creating the skin problem, it conditions the skin and hair around the damaged area, promoting both healthy skin and maximum hair growth. In fact, Original M-T-G has proven to work exceptionally well promoting hair growth. Users report up to 3 inches of new growth on manes and tails in a single month.

Original M-T-G creates a healthy environment for the hair follicle, resulting in maximum growth while keeping the length of the hair shaft soft and pliable for minimum breakage. Original M-T-G is a time-tested, user-supported solution to both skin healing and hair growth in a single bottle. An oil-based product that does not require washing or water for application, it is not only easy to use, but great for cold weather.

Original M-T-G is also safe and effective on dogs and other animals’ skin problems, such as hot spots, itching and dry skin.

Shapley's™ Original M-T-G™ is rated 4.5 out of 5 by 184.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great product Makes the hair oily but that’s also why it works so well.
Date published: 2020-09-10
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Really works!! I’ve always believed in MTG but this time it took on a new meaning. My horse rubbed his tail off from sweet-itch. I had been trying different things since I ran out of my original MTG. Nothing was working. So I got this new improved kind which I think does smell a little better but I am astonished with the results. He actually likes when I apply it, must alleviate the itching and his tail grew back in what seemed like a week. I am so happy with this product and the results!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Really works I use this once per week on my gelding's tail. It has gotten thicker, longer and less sunburned. Happy with the results.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My horse got a weird skin problem and we tried everything, the vet did too... and a g/f of mine from up here in Spokane, told me to use this ... and in just days, it was healing... she had me use it 3 times in a week... my poor horse before treatment for days ... was itching his head off... this stuff it the best ... thank you!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best ever! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We use this product for tail growth and itches and never fails!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Smells weird and is greasy, but great to have! Someone at my barn gave me a bottle of this that they were no longer using. I didn't think much of it, but used it here and there on my horse's mane. I recently went on a nearly two week vacation, and when I came back, I found that my horse had iched the top of his tail completely bare! When I felt his tailbone, he moved his tail like it was reallyyyyy itchy and the skin was flaky and dry. I put M-T-G onto his dock, and saw results immediately. After one day, his skin wasn't itchy and dry anymore. After three weeks, there's so much hair growth that I can barely see the spot anymore. I have no idea what happened to make him itch like that, but I'm glad I've got a remedy!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great for Everything! I use MTG for just about everything. Want to condition mane and tail? MTG. Want to get rid of rain rot? MTG. Want to grow hair back from a previous wound? MTG. Itchy tail? MTG. Wanna keep "ice balls" from forming on the bottom of your horse's tail in the winter? MTG. Shiny mane and tail? MTG. Tail and mane growth? MTG. Mud scratches? MTG. I have a list, but I may run out of space typing. Haha. Buy this! You won't regret it!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works great! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought a mare that had a large piece of her mane missing from eating out of a round bale feeder. I used M-T-G and it grew at an impressive rate. Can't compare to other products since this was the only one I tried, but I was pleased with the results.
Date published: 2018-11-29
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Product! I have an Appy gelding. He ripped out a huge chunk of his tail. Using MTG I've seen his hair grow back stronger, and healthier than ever. His mane had been buzzed and the hair grew back within a few months and was thicker and stronger, including his forelock! I use it as instructed, once a week and keep his tail in a tailbag. It's not a miracle product that helps over night but is definitely worth it if used as instructed.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very Useful My horse sometimes gets dry and itchy skin in the summer and this product helps greatly. My horse can be sensitive to smells, but the smell of this product does not affect her.
Date published: 2018-04-01
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great product This product is great!!! It works great and in very short time
Date published: 2018-03-29
Rated 4 out of 5 by from Works great but can’t stand the smell While this is clearly a very effective product for a variety or skin conditions, the smell is hard to tolerate. Wish there was something that could be done about that.
Date published: 2018-03-29
Rated 4 out of 5 by from Oily & stinky but it works As much as I hate applying MTG, it does work.. definitely not something I use every day but it works well on rain rot and overly dry/itchy skin. It stinks and it's oily, but it works well for overly irritated skin. I usually always keep some in the barn.
Date published: 2018-01-17
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Impressive Results In the winter months, my horses tend to suffer from dry itchy skin. We have experience mane rubbing and tail itching. We put M-T-G on their scalp few times a week and they have not been itchy. Has very unique distinct smell, but after you see the results you do not mind the smell anymore!
Date published: 2018-01-10
Rated 1 out of 5 by from MTG Discussion page for horse health has posted over and over how it burns the horse-even if it helps some and burns others it should be taken off market to prevent burning and sores in horses!
Date published: 2017-12-11
Rated 5 out of 5 by from RAPID RESULTS AFTER ONLY A COUPLE OF APPLICATIONS, THE POSITIVE RESULTS WERE EVIDENT. GREAT PRODUCT.
Date published: 2017-10-27
Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great for itchy tails I use this on my yearling colt's dock/tail bone to keep him from itching during the dry months. It works great. Just make sure your horse isn't always in direct sunlight because it can burn, but I've never had a problem.
Date published: 2017-09-11
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Stinky, but effective! This stuff really has a strong smell, but it is great stuff! It treats almost any skin condition or patch of lost hair, and it helps with dandruff also. I always keep a bottle on hand!
Date published: 2017-04-06
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great product! I love using this product to keep on top of scratches and rain rot!
Date published: 2017-04-05
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works Amazing! I used MTG on my show horse's tail (since the braiding makes the hair fall out) and it has not only grown back fuller, but it is also shinier than ever.
Date published: 2017-01-02
Rated 5 out of 5 by from It really works! I use M-T-G on my horses tail every winter as well as braiding it down and bagging it. It really helps to grow his tail during our down months!
Date published: 2016-12-28
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great for skin issues! This is a great product for a variety of skin issues. I have used it to treat rain rot as well as other skin fungus. I have also used it to help hair grow back in places where my horse has rubbed his hair off. It is very safe, which is a big plus for me. It's only downside is that it doesn't smell good. However, they also sell one which is supposed to smell better (but I haven't tried it).
Date published: 2016-09-08
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great product, multiple uses! This is a great product for many uses ! I've used it to treat scratches , and to promote tail hair growth, I use it to promote overall coat growth, it adds a nice sheen and conditions hooves and softens dry skin patches.
Date published: 2016-08-24
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Amazing I have a very sensitive skinned chestnut who always seems to have perpetual scurf/rain rot in various areas of his body. I've always been careful of what products I use to treat his skin issues as many things I've tried have made him break out in hives. I was worried about trying this on him as it seemed strong, but he had no bad reaction to it AND it cleared up ALL his skin issues within two days! I'm truly amazed by how well this has worked and I plan to always keep some around now should he ever have a flare up again.
Date published: 2016-08-24
Rated 1 out of 5 by from DO NOT BUY I used MTG on my horse as a treatment for rain rot, it cleared it up but caused a massive sore on his butt ( which WAS NOT rain rot). Unless you want your horse to have sores, DO NOT BUY!!!!!!!!! If I could rate this product a zero I WOULD! It also turned my palomino's mane green!
Date published: 2016-07-31
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great for Chestnuts! My new horse is a chestnut and this is the best product for his sensitive coat! He got a case of rain rot and it did wonders to clear it up and grow the hair back quick. I use it as a preventative now as well as to condition his tail . I have also started using it on his legs. I use wear disposable gloves just to make clean up easier but you can put it on with bare hands and it is good for your hands too. It does separate in the bottle so just give the bottle a good shake. I can't say enough about this product and how great it is and how many uses there are for it.
Date published: 2016-07-21
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great - takes time I've been using this product for a few weeks now to treat scratches on my Senior OTTB's back feet pasterns. It's taking some time but does seem to be working. Be diligent and give it some time. Smells bad so I wear latex gloves.
Date published: 2016-07-12
Rated 4 out of 5 by from Smells great &I it works! I bought this for my mare that scratches - it was very easy to use and my mare loves it!
Date published: 2016-05-03
Rated 5 out of 5 by from this is the good stuff I have added this to my coat dressing mix for my show cattle, it is great for all skin issues and keep the coats in shape, I use it every time I groom cattle for show or sale.
Date published: 2015-09-28
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Used it forever! Read the bottle!!! Test your horse for a reaction before using this product!! I like to test on an inconspicuous patch on the rump, if there is a reaction it won't be hideously in the way. I started using this when my gelding lost his forelock! It kind of grows the hair back in little tufts if you apply it to the whole follicle. I recommend really trying to get only the roots of the hair. I've used this on blanket rubs, trailer tail rubs, and mare tail. If you're put off by that smell I'm sorry but most medications don't smell pleasant and this is in my opinion a medication. It does work, just crinkles your nose. Also, people use it on themselves? I haven't tried it but I hear it works!
