ABSTRACT:
The horseshoe assembly of the present invention comprises a U-shaped pad member having one or more glide clips attached thereto around its outer circumference. Each of the glide clips has a glide surface protruding a short distance below the bottom surface of the pad member. The coefficient of friction of the glide members is less than that of the pad member. A modified form of the invention utilizes a metal plate between the pad member and the horse's hoof. The metal plate has a small roller at its forward edge. A further modification comprises casting a plurality of shoes in various shapes and sizes capable of fitting directly to horses' hooves without further reshaping of the shoes.
