    [RC] White hooves - T.B.Pots


    Hi everyone,
     
    I'm new to this list and new to the horse world after a 17 year break.  I'm in the process of searching for a horse.  My interests are gearing toward endurance rides someday (once I find someone else here in Maine to help guide me!).
     
    I spoke to a gentleman about an anglo arab he had for sale.  He told me it could never do rides longer than 15 miles because he has three white hooves.  Now, could someone please elaborate on this?  He said the horse was perfectly sound but that white hooves were weak.  I never heard of this before but as I mentioned earlier I've been away from the horse world for a long time.
     
    Thanks for your help,
    Tracy
