Traditionally, the horse shoe is made out of steel and is fitted to the hooves of horses to offset wear. The steel shoes can wear out both the horses' joints and the surfaces they walk on. Lone Pedersen hoped that it would be more comfortable for the horses with the new shoes and that they would not be affected by as many injuries.Many carriage horses wear rubber shoes as well. The shoes give the horses better footing, and better traction on pavement or other slick or west surfaces.
