Having hooves trimmed is much cheaper than having hooves shod.
No more loose, lost, or bent shoes.
The hoof can be trimmed more frequently and kept in better balance.
A bare foot tends to keep itself cleaner.
A bare foot doesn't trap snow and ice.
There are many factors that the horse owner needs to be aware of in order to help their horse have optimum
hoof health. This web site is here to encourage people to get educated, so they can make informed decisions
about their horse's health, and long-term soundness.
