>How do you prevent the buildup of ice and snow in the feet of a shod horse?
I've never used but have heard of a type of pad that pops the snowballs
out of the hoof. According to people I have heard talk about them they
are round on the bottom, flexible rubber and the snow can't build up. You
might ask a farrier about it.
