There is provided a horseshoe comprising two rigid horseshoe segments which are capable of being articulated relative to one another along the transverse plane about an elastic segment. The rigid segments are attachable to the horse s hoof in the conventional manner, by the use of nails. Each of these rigid horseshoe segments defines a recess adapted for supporting the elastic segment. The elastic segment is made from materials such as natural or synthetic rubber, or relatively flexible thermoplastic material, e.g., a polyurethane orthermoplastic rubber.
