If there’s one thing that always disappears from your grooming kit, it’s one of the best hoof picks. For this reason, it’s not something you want to spend too much money on, while at the same time it needs to be comfortable to use and do a good job because picking your horse’s feet out is an important part of his daily care.

There are a few different types, but the main way to group them are those with brushes and those without. A brush is useful to clear away any last bits of dirt once you’ve removed the main debris but it’s not essential. Choosing one that’s a bright colour is also handy as it makes it easier to find and identify as yours.
