A gauge for the measurement of the shoulder bone angles of horses with respect to gravity, as an aid in the proper shoeing of the fore feet. The gauge has a gravity reference pointer which swings about a pivot axis so that it points downward under the influence of gravity, and protractor means to indicate the relative angle between the gravity pointer and the horse's shoulder bone angle. The protractor means include an angle scale, a concave locating cup adapted for positioning over the horse's shoulder point, an opposite bone angle pointer integral therewith and optional clamp means for controllably securing the gravity reference pointer with respect to the scale.
