Hoof Painting

Cute Overload reader Alexandra R. sent in two pics of her family farm's fashionable horses:

Who doesn’t love a little extra glam! These are pictures from our family farm in New Jersey. Our horses love being pampered! My horse Cuda is in leopard print, gold and blue stars and the tiger stripe pattern is my sister’s horse Gabriel

Well, it's better than dressing them up in gaudy outfits. The goats probably just ended up eating the clothes right off their back, so they had to resort to this.

Plus the workers at the glue factories love to collect them as souvenirs.

Would this dry out the horses hooves?

As silly as this is, if the hooves were being handled while being painted, it's all for the best! Even when they're shod or clipped regularly, a lot of horses have issues with hoof handling if it's not done quite a bit...and even those who used to be good with it can regress.

Adorable gaudiness, and grats on having patience to the girls who painted them :P I sure wouldn't have THAT much.
