A horseshoe apparatus protection assembly for Equidae comprising a flexible and elastic housing material with an outer cover comprising rigid material covering the protection assembly. The horseshoe is intended for the protection of the feet of horses, ponies, donkeys, mules, and other animals in the utilitarian and sportive domains. The inner housing may be stamped or cast using elastomeric materials to conform to the shape of the foot. The rigid material of the outer cover comprises synthetic resins including adiprene. The outer cover may also be adapted to be elastic at its upper regions to permit ease of fitting and removal of the horseshoe apparatus from the foot of the animal. The base or sole of the outer cover may be adapted to accommodate additional elements comprising calks, non-skid plates, horseshoes and like devices traditionally used in conjunction with foot coverings for animals. The inner housing may be adapted to contain a treatment product by means of a groove to hold the treatment product or by impregnating the inner layer with the treatment product. |
