A lot of people chalk the health of the hoof down to genetics.. and yet, as a full time hoofcare provider, I place less and less significance on “genetics” in hoof health, and more and more on how we feed the hoof to get it stronger.
Originally published in 2019, this episode includes an interview with Sally Hugg, “nutrition guru” and creator of California Trace minerals. In it, we explore how nutrition can help the health of hooves, and address various issues such as poor hoof quality, shelly walls, thin soles, laminitis, stretched white line, sore feet, etc.
