    Re: [RC] White hooves - Maggie Mieske


    That's an old wive's tale.  We have horses with white hooves that are no problem and horses with black hooves that are crappy.  Depends on the quality of the hoof, not the color of the hoof.  A white hoof has no pigment in it and will show bruising more easily than a dark hoof will.  Ask to talk to the farrier about the feet and see what he/she says.
