Written by Our Renton backyard mustang gets his hoofs trimmed every two months. We don’t need to put shoes on him most of the time, because he was a wild-born horse. As a product of natural selection, he ran up to 50 miles a day in the desert without shoes the first ten years of his life.
Also, Renton’s soft wet ground is pretty easy on horses that don’t spend too much time on streets.
But Zeus seems to enjoy his trims, as you can see from this photo. And the farriers (hoof care specialists) all seem to like him.
