Record which hoof and what happened
Choose all four hooves or a particular hoof, then record the care or action and footwear status. The form includes routine checks, trimming, shoeing, boot fitting and professional assessments.
Record observed issues and how the horse moved, along with your own notes or advice given by a farrier or vet. These are observations, not an app-generated diagnosis.
Keep a photograph with the entry
Attach an available progress photograph when it helps explain the observation. Compare dated entries under the selected horse rather than relying on an undated picture.
Keep original photographs that are important to you and make backups of your records. A photo cannot replace an in-person professional assessment.
Link observations to the next visit
Use the care calendar for the next farrier, vet or follow-up appointment. Keep notes about the visit or agreed plan in the relevant records.
Where your permissions allow, correct an entry, remove one saved in error or move it to the right horse.

Common questions
Can I record one hoof rather than all four?
Yes. Choose the relevant hoof in the entry form or select all four for a general check.
Does a recorded concern diagnose a hoof condition?
No. The diary records what you observed and any professional advice you enter. Seek a vet or farrier’s assessment for concerns.
