Product Information

To create your hoof shoes, it’s time to prepare and place the cardboard. This step will give your shoes their distinct hoof shape. Start by tracing the outline of your shoe onto a piece of cardboard. First and foremost, stables should be designed to incorporate a ‘run-off’ for urine and water. Fresh air should be a priority in the stable environment. The choice of bedding is subjective, however it is important that whatever bedding used, it should not be too dry as this will compromise the natural moisture content of the hoof horn. The bedding should be kept as fresh as possible. This will reduce the build up and establishment of endemic bacteria and fungi within the stable environment. Several of these micro-organisms have a natural tropism for hoof tissue e.g. Thrush. Nutritionists, farriers and veterinarians are now beginning to concur that bioavailable-available sulphur is an extremely important nutrient in the diet of the horse, especially with regard to hair and hoof growth; and integrity of connective tissue. According to the 1989 National Research Council (NRC) publication ‘Nutrient Requirements of the Horse’, the recommended daily allowance (RDA) for sulphur in the horse is 0.15% of the diet dry matter. 5 The horse like other non-ruminants must meet its sulphur requirements from bioavailable-available sulphur, therefore both the source and the quality of bioavailable-available sulphur is very important in the equine diet. New sulphur enriched Hoofmaker contains two excellent sources of bioavailable-available sulphur; the nutrient Methylsulphonylmethane (MSM) and the essential amino acid Methionine. Each 20g sachet of Hoofmaker contains 2,500mg of MSM and 2,500mg of methionine. Both of these nutrients are easily absorbed sources of dietetic sulphur. The importance of sulphur in relation to improved hoof growth relates to the durability of the keratin sulphate molecule. The keratin sulphate molecule relies on the integrity of it’s numerous disulphide bonds made up of the sulphur-bearing amino acids. Methionine is one is these essential amino acids therefore its’ inclusion in Hoofmaker is fundamental for improved integrity of keratin sulphate. MSM is a nutrient rich in organic sulphur. MSM provides 34% bioavailable-available sulphur, ensuring that there is adequate sulphur being provided in the diet for optimum hoof growth.

Hypona Hoof Maker® Ingredients: To make your hoof shoes easy to put on and take off, you’ll need to plan a fastener system. This will ensure that the shoes stay securely on your feet while walking or moving around.

To add screws to the shoes, start by marking where you want them to go. Use a drill with a small bit to create pilot holes in those spots. Then, insert the screws into the holes and use a screwdriver or drill to tighten them securely.

To make hoof shoes at home, you will need screws. These screws are used to create the appearance of hooves on your shoes. You will drill holes in the shoe and then add the screws to mimic the look of hooves. Make sure to work in a well-ventilated area when making your hoof shoes at home. This is important because some of the materials, like epoxy and paint, can give off strong fumes. Working in a well-ventilated space will help to ensure that you have good air circulation and reduce the risk of breathing in any harmful chemicals. For this step, you will need a drill. Start by drilling small holes in the bottom of the shoes. These holes will be used to attach the screws later on. Make sure to space the holes evenly and avoid placing them too close to the edges of the shoes.I always make sure to follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer when using materials for my DIY projects. This includes the shoes, drill, screws, cardboard, epoxy dough, paint, and fur that I need for making my hoof shoes. It’s important to make sure the shoes are in good condition and fit well before moving on to the next steps. Step 2: Drill holes Make sure to cover the entire shoe thoroughly with an even layer of epoxy dough, paying special attention to areas where you want the hooves shape to be more prominent. Take your time and work carefully to ensure a smooth finish.
