Oh, dude, hooves totally get an apostrophe! Like, when you're talking about the possessive form, you gotta throw in that apostrophe before the "s." So, if you're talking about the hooves of a majestic unicorn, it's totally cool to write "the unicorn's hooves." Keep it casual, man!

horses (without apostrophe) is the plural of horse. For example, "I saw two horses."

horse's (with apostrophe) is the possesive - something that belongs to the horse. For example, "The horse's hair was smooth."

The word hooves is a common plural noun. It requires no apostrophe.

We filed the hooves of the horse. - This wording makes a longer and more awkward sentence.


If the word hooves has a possession or belonging, it needs an apostrophe.

We filed the horse's hooves.
