What if the key to solving your horse’s lingering hoof issues isn’t a different supplement or shoe, but a completely different way of looking at their feet?
On this episode, co-hosts Dr. Tania Cubitt and Katy Starr and guest Dr. Sammy Pittman, a veterinarian, farrier, and equine podiatry expert, discuss how the environment, biomechanics, and nutrition all play a role in horse hoof soundness, including:
- What’s really happening when horse hooves chip, crack, or flare
- Why "fixing" conformation can sometimes do more harm than good
- How over-supplementing might be hurting your horse more than helping
Whether you're managing a high-level performance horse or a trail riding horse, this episode is packed with practical takeaways to help you support soundness and build stronger hooves - from the inside out.
