A two part plastics material horseshoe has a relatively flexible strip part 16 of L-shaped cross- section, shaped so as to be suitable for adhering to the side wall of a hoof, and a relatively inflexible shoe-part 15 adapted for bonding to the strip-part 16 once the latter has been adhered to the hoof. The two parts are pre-united in the toe region, to set the relative disposition thereof. Attachment of the strip-part to the hoof is enhanced by providing a liner 28 of a rough texture within the strip-part, and the shoe-part may be affixed to the strip-part by a heat-welding technique. <IMAGE> |
