When her shoes were taken off, my mare had very overlaid bars, especially in her hind hooves. This subsided with time, so as for now, the bars of her hind hooves look completely fine. The bars of her front hooves however still (over two years!) tend to overlay the sole. I've been often told that this causes damage to the sole (bruising) as well as to the inner hoof structures (especially the navicular bone. <br /><br />Then, on the other hand, I found articles saying that the bars are actually trying to support/protect the sole, coffin bone and cartilages by "stimulating" them from underneath. <br /><br /><br /><br />I would be very interested to hear your opinion on that.<br /><br />Greetings from Germany. :-)nandouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02829648269771349799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8415492346905673232.post-78027530385227478002018-10-09T19:24:59.685+01:002018-10-09T19:24:59.685+01:00Hi Julie!

It's possible they may make it available to purchase upon request.
