every day .. with or without shoes !
Zebras cannot be fully tamed and will likely fight you in any attempt to shoe them. Zebras typically have stronger hooves than horses and do just fine without shoes so long as their hooves are maintained.
== == Horseshoes are pieces of metal that are attached to the bottom of a horses hooves. They stop the hooves wearing down, and also provide grip. This is not to say that a horse without shoes will not be okay. It is a matter of choice.
The horses owner calls a person called a farrier or a blacksmith that comes out and trims the horses hooves before nailing the shoes onto the bottoms of the hooves.
a farrier takes care of horses shoes and hooves
No, a farrier is a craftsman who trims and shoes horses' hooves.
To stop their hooves wearing down on unnatural, man made, hard surfaces.
It could be hooves, horse shoes, hair, ticks, or the horse itself.
The horses with fur shoes are called Clydesdales. Clydesdales have long hair, known as "feathers," that cover their hooves, giving them the appearance of wearing fur shoes.
Horses don't have toenails, they have hooves. And yes, usually they need to be trimmed regularly. Many horses are shod, and will need new shoes something like every 6 weeks. Even an unshod horse will need its hooves trimmed, unless it somehow manages to get enough natural wear from moving around in its paddock to keep the hooves at a suitable length, which would be quite rare.
This really depends on the horse, If you have a horse with soft hooves, you many want to go with shoes. If you have a horse with harder hooves, then talk to your farrier and see what he/she thinks you should use. Also, take into consideration what you will be doing with the horse, if you are going to be doing lots of jumping you may want to use shoes.
Farrier is correctly spelled. Farrier: noun: a craftsman who trims and shoes horses hooves.
Horses have hooves because that is the way they are, why do humans have feet. But horses need shoes because their hooves get damaged very easily when walking around, and it is very painful for the horse when their hoof gets cut, punctured, or otherwise damaged. And because they make a cool clickety clack sound when they walk!
