Hello barefoot mafia :D!!!!*
I have come for some cc on my mares hooves!*

She's an 8 year old welsh a, hasn't done any roadwork until recently and has always had rock hard little feet, never had a crack/chip in the 3 years I've owned her.*
She had laminitis about 18 months ago now so is already on a low sugar/high fibre diet, she has fast fibre and a multi vitamin supplement.
Her hooves don't grow particularly fast she only usually needs the farrier every 10-12 weeks and she was last trimmed 2 weeks ago.
She has never had shoes, and I don't plan to change that just wanted an opinion on the condition of them now and what i can do to keep them this way now she will be out on the roads alot more.
Thanks :)

RF - her soles are pretty good, sounds like shes wearing shoes on concrete!

I'm no expert, but her feet look very long to me. She looks like she has lovely concave soles, but the frog that is pictured does not look very healthy. It looks like it may have some thrush and it is quite narrow.
 
I did wonder about her frogs but there's no smell/black gunk at the mo? She has had thrush a few times before but not recently, never really thought about her frogs being narrow but thinking about it my other mares are wider!
