This is probably a stupid question...but I am trying to sort through everything I am learning about feet in an effort to return my horse to soundness permanantly.
I understand that the hoof grows from the top down. It has always been obvious to me when looking at the hoof walls. Where does the sole grow from? Does it grow out from under the coffin bone? If the coffin bone has some sinking, will the growth of the sole be affected? Will it really eventually gain the concavity it had previous to the 'incident' as my farrier/trimmer has suggested?
