All equestrians know that the hoof of a horse is the most important body part.
Like tires on a car, the hoof is what stands between the horse and the road. Just as you wouldn t drive a car without tires, you would never to ride a horse with problem feet. A hoof has unique parts and features that require special care. If you looked at the bottom of the hoof, you would see the outer layer of the hoof that is called the hoof wall. This is also the part of the hoof that is visible when the horse is standing with feet on the ground.
