A hoof boot includes a massive base for attachment of a horseshoe and a collar which is connected to the base and is glued laterally to the hoof of a horse via a textile covering lined inwardly of the collar. The base and the collar are made in form of molded part of plastic material. The collar is provided with several thin strips which serve as predetermined breaking points so as to divide the collar in several sections and to allow adjustment thereof to the configuration of the horse hoof. The attachment of the horseshoe to the base is accomplished with nails, split rivets or wood screws in such a manner that the horseshoe can be detached without removing the molded part which is glued to the horsehoof.
