	Balanced Hooves = Balanced Horse
		A horse that lives in fear is going to have repercussions throughout its body including its hooves, eventually, as the entire equine system is taxed.
		I look to get the hooves balanced; I like to imagine superimposing folded hooves (individual to each hoof; not to each other) if that's possible; sometimes its not possible due to the individual horse's conformation of the hooves and distal limbs.
		Well, if the hooves are not conditioned to rocks because the horse lives on grass, common sense tells me that of COURSE the horse is going to be ouchy on rocky trails.

	The SF Site Featured Review: Cloven Hooves
		Read a hundred pages into Cloven Hooves and you'd be convinced you were reading a very conventional, if well-written, mainstream novel: an everyday story of a woman, Evelyn, and her odyssey from an unfettered and imaginative childhood in rural Alaska to a crumbling marriage among her husband's family in Washington State.
		Perhaps part of the reason the author recast herself as Robin Hobb is that she had worked out her demons as Megan Lindholm, and needed to move on.
		On the other hand, Cloven Hooves was free of the typos frequently encountered in another current series of fantasy classics reprints being published in England.

	Trimming Your Horse's Hooves
		The first thing to remember when thinking about trimming your horse's hooves yourself is to hire a farrier to do it first and allow you to learn more fully, or take a class or two in it.
		Before beginning, your horse should already be at the stage where you can comfortably, and safely, lift all his feet and hold them, or put them between your knees as a farrier does.
		By this point you should already have learned the correct length your horse's hooves should be after trimming, so using that knowledge, use the nippers to begin to trim just the toe of the hoof.

	All About Horses - Horse Care - Healthy Hooves, the Natural Way.
		Because these horses were now stalled, standing in their own waste with no movement, the hooves could no longer hold up to the rigors of carrying heavily armed knights into war.
		When the natural expansion and contraction of the hoof is diminished by shoes or unbalanced hooves, this important blood flow is hindered, putting the horse at a disadvantage not only in his hooves but his whole body.
		Of course, nutrition is also a key element in building strong, healthy hooves; without the proper nutrients and mineral balance, hooves will be weak and inferior regardless of whether shod or not.

	How to Trim Goat hooves the right way
		In this case, be sure that you trim the hooves more often, and that you are not leaving the heel so long that the goat is walking on ‘high heels’.
		If your goats have plenty of rocks to walk on, or are in a large herd that travels over many acres a day, you might be able to escape this chore for four to six months.
		In most cases, when the goats are walking on grass or in pens, hooves should be trimmed every four to twelve weeks.

	Horse Hoof Care: Shoes on Too Long - Dry, Brittle Hooves by Cherry Hill
		When shoes are left on a horse's hooves too long, the shoes become loose and often pull off large hunks of the too-long hoof when the shoes finally do come off.
		When a horse's shoes are pulled and the hooves are left unshod, the hooves generally break around the edges up to some extent, especially where weakened by the nail holes, until the hoof tissues can adapt to being barefoot.
		Often, hooves will crack not because they are too dry, but because they have been too wet.

	Untitled Document
		However, Pierson’s puppeteer has “clawed hooves” (described in “Ringworld” by Niven, 1970) rather than feet with five digits and metacarpals as seen in normal humans.
		For the most part, the hooves of the puppeteer develop in the same way as a normal horse, and because of this fact, the hooves may have developed due to functionality.
		There is however a distinction between the hooves of the puppeteer and the hooves of a horse, that being the “claws” which are characteristic of the puppeteer.

		And if you are starting out with contracted hooves (like most!) then water is one of the most important tools you have to change your horse's hooves back to healthy ones.
