Should your Tennessee Walkers back hooves hit her front hooves?
No, your horse's hooves should not hit themselves. Accidents can happen of course, but if this happens often, it is usually a sign that the horse either needs his hooves trimmed, or that he has a conformation defect that is preventing his feet from traveling straight.
How do cows kick?
When a horse runs on the left lead (the left front leg reaches farther than the right leg) the hooves land in this order: Right hind, left hind, right front, left front, repeat.

There is also a short period where the horse is completely airborne after the last front leg hits the ground. Then it starts over.
Why do horses need hoves?
Like claws, hooves are also made of keratin and are found on mammals such as pigs, deer, antelope, and horses. Hooves are usually found on herbivores or prey animals. They serve a very special purpose for most members of this group by offering protection from the impact of their feet striking the ground when running. Hoofed animals rely on being able to flee rapidly to avoid predators. Because more force is put on front hooves when the animal runs, they are often larger and can withstand greater force than the back hooves. Many mammals have hooves that are cloven with two parts. This structure allows the animal to walk easily in all sorts of habitats, from hard ground to soft, sandy soil . Hooves are also used for grooming, to dig for food, and for defense.

Your goat could be limping for a lot of reasons depending on whether it is a front or a hind leg - it could have a musculoskeletal injury - feel the leg for heat and pain and look for any swellings. Or it could be limping due to a stone bruise, footrot, shelly toe, scald, or other injury to the hooves - check the base of the foot and between the claws - you may need to trim the hooves and ensure they are not overgrown - sometimes when they are overgrown you can get under-running and build up of material - also feel the hooves for any heat

What protects horses?
Horses have two main defenses, their teeth and their hooves. Hooves can be used to kick or strike out at other horses/people/animals and the jaw can be used in a lunging motion, almost like a snake, to lock on the to offending creature and bite (this hurts a lot. If a horse ever threatens to bite you, get away from it immediately!) When two stallions fight, they use their teeth and front hooves to attack each other. They will always go front on. When two mares fights, they kick out with their back legs, which also causes a lot of damage!
