Sheep hoof rot disease is characterized by lameness of sick sheep, fear of standing while lying, and difficulty in walking. There are often ulcerated surfaces between the hooves, and when the hoof shells are rotten and deformed, the sick sheep can not afford to lie on the ground.

Sick sheep should trim their hooves in time, especially in the humid and hot season. If the hoof fork is rotten, it can be washed with 5% iodine tincture; if the soft tissue of the hoof is rotten, it should be thoroughly expanded and cleaned, and then packed with 5% copper sulfate powder in the bottom hole or hole of the hoof, and then coated with pine distillate oil.
