Hi Candace,

I  Googled styrofoam/hooves/equine. Here are a couple of sites:

https://www.google.ca/search?q=styrofoam+hooves+equine&espv=2&biw=1134&bih=897&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwicqYTO7Z_KAhVDWx4KHdIFBn8QsAQILw&dpr=1.1

More in our Conversations archives.Even more on our EC Hoof sister site.

Styrofaom pads are very useful,but nothing will help (ok, maybe it will,but just temporarily) if the trim isn't a balanced one.
