depends what is wrong with the hooves.. just cleaning wise take the hoof pick and get under the packed in dirt and brush the pick along the frog( triangle inside of the hoof) (which is very sensitive by the way) and repeat until the hoof is clean! if the horse is limping or is sensitive to the foot call your local Vet or Farrier.
