Question
hello sir, are white hooves soft than black hooves? is this correct or its a fake? what care can i take for white hooved horses? what shoe would you suggest for white hoof, aluminum or steel

Answer
The notion about white hooves on a horse is not true. Yes they are a little softer but if properly taken care of it should pose n problem.
The type of shoe used on a hoof isn't determined by the color of the hoof. It is determined by the farrier depending on the condition of the hoof, the condition of the legs and the surface the horse will be worked on.
