What is a "toe crack"?
A toe crack is a common condition in horses where the hoof becomes cracked, usually affecting the front of the hoof near the toe. It can result from various factors such as dry conditions, repeated injury, or improper trimming. Symptoms may include visible cracks in the hoof wall, sensitivity, and difficulty walking. Treatment typically involves trimming the hoof to remove the damaged area and using supportive tools such as hoof boots or special shoes to help healing. Regular hoof care and maintenance are essential to prevent toe cracks and maintain overall hoof health in horses.
