What do you call the dots on horse hoof?

The answer will depend on what you mean by 'Dots'. If you mean the tiny dark dots that are on the coronet band of some horses those are called Ermine. Spots on the hoof itself are either just a 'marking' caused by the color of the skin at the coronet band or possibly a 'hoof brand'. Some people will have a farrier imprint a pattern or series of numbers on a horses hoof to help prevent theft and identify horses that may look identical.
