Welcome to Back To Basics Natural Hoof Care. This site is intended to help horse owners understand the principles of natural hoof care based on the wild horse model, and its benefits to horses as well as provide horse owners with access to a good natural barefoot trim.

This site is intended as an introductory overview guide to basic hoof care principles. More in depth information can be found on links to websites of other specialized experts in the Relevant Links section.

You will find information on the natural barefoot trim and its process, as well you will find answers to your questions about de-shoeing in our FAQ section. There is valuable information on the use of horse boots to aid the transition period of horses being shod to being barefoot for life.

Have a look at our Services page to find out how we can help your horse become a comfortable barefoot horse. Also please scroll down to see links to articles at the bottom of this page.
