S

Shoe manufactured or adapted for an asymmetrically loaded hoof. The aim is to provide better support for the more loaded hoof wall. This is done by forging an extension. While extension shoes are practical when dealing with the lateral wall, medial extensions must be used with caution, these often predispose interference problems (brushing) or the shoe being pulled off if stepped on by the contralateralhoof.
