horses have healthier feet and hooves as well healthier legs and joints if they are do not wear shoes. keeping shoes off horses is better for them. keeping the hooves trimmed regularly is also important. just a tip from a horse lover

PointyDormouse60089, Thrush is a fungal infection, not restricted to babies. It thrives in warm dark places in any mammal species, including adult humans and certainly horses feet if not kept in clean conditions and stones etc removed.

I'm a bricklayer and have always wondered why the indent in the top of a brick is called the frog. makes sense that it is derived from the horses hoof...

Player #10639782, my horse has been barefoot most of his 19 years. However, when I know I am going to be on rocky and rough terrain, I will have shoes put on. Sometimes shoes are the healthier option. It really depends on the horse's feet and what the horse does.

why do cowboys get on the horse on the left side mostly? Or is that my imagination? Too many westerns!

No metal horse shoes! You can use rubber ones! & Yes depends on what the horse is doing or being used for!

I think he meant within the hoof wall. You can't be between a wall.

thrush is also a fungal infection in horses feet, not only something babies get. a good way to reduce fungal problems is to put a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar in a 8 oz. glass of water and drink it. also good to put in your horses feed.
