Re: was books for sale now Wet Hooves

i understand about the wet hooves being ouchy, but it is even in summer
when it is dry that this horse still can't go on gravel. he is ok on
roads and arenas for sure but i can't take him on rocks or gravel. his
feet haven't much of concavity either. Maybe that is why, he just has
flat feet.
Is there any way to get the sole more concave:?

Marilyn, if the trim is right, then I would suspect a metabolics issue, perhaps related to diet. I have a flat-footed horse. He can't handle a lot of green...

I suspect that the change in weather conditions isn’t long enough for his feet to toughen up to the gravel. I will let someone with more knowledge answer...
