In many disciplines it is required that you paint your horse's feet before going into competition. There are two types of hoof paint that are appropriate for most formal shows: black and clear. The clear paint is usually used on white or light coloured hooves whereas the black is for dark hooves.
The Paint Horse Registry has a breeding stock designation for horses that do not meet the spotting criteria to be a paint. Breeding stock horses are registered and can be shown at paint shows they just don't show "color".
People who show their horses at horse shows will "paint" their horses' hooves to look bright and shiny for the judge. A parade horse may have his/her hooves painted a bright or sparkly color, just like girls use nail polish. In the summer, horses also tend to get dry hooves, so conscientious horse owners often "paint" their feet with hoof conditioner to keep their hooves healthy.
Paint horses are commonly used for western riding disciplines such as trail riding, ranch work, cutting, roping, and rodeo events. They are also popular in the show ring for disciplines like Western pleasure, reining, and barrel racing. Paint horses are known for their versatility, making them suitable for a variety of equestrian activities.
