Skip Navigation LinksAll Horse Topics > Lameness (Hoof) and Shoeing

No hoof, no horse, goes the old saying; the equine hoof is one of the most common sources of lameness. Learn more about problems that can afflict the equine foot, such as laminitis, ringbone, puncture wounds, poor balance, navicular disease, sole bruises, thrush, white line disease, and more.

For lamenesses affecting the leg, see the Lameness (Leg) category.
