__**Scenario 1: Farm Owner** __

 Bruce currently owns a farm outside of the city to which he normally retreats during his time off from work. On one such weekend, Bruce takes his horse in to be shoed by his friend Ted who is a local farrier, an individual that specializes in shoeing horses. Though sometimes horseshoes can be glued onto the hoof, Bruce wants the horseshoe nailed into the hoof so that it is secured. Hammering nails through the holes of the horseshoe into the hoof is the most common practice for shoeing a horse. Though it can affect the horse’s movement negatively if done incorrectly, Bruce doesn’t want his horse walking barefooted and potentially damaging its fragile hoofs. Bruce brings his horse to Ted’s stable where he begins the shoeing process. The process is going well until Bruce’s horse slightly snorts as Ted hammers in the nails on the left front hoof. Bruce is concerned for a little while but is told that this reaction happens all the time during shoeing. Ted finishes shoeing the horse and all horseshoes appear to be hammered on straight. None of them appear to be crooked or misaligned. Bruce’s horse walks out of the stable gracefully as Bruce thanks Ted for his help.

Two weeks later, Bruce’s horse is showing signs of “lameness”, having immense trouble walking and standing up. It appears that his horse’s left front hoof is bleeding and infected. The nails in the horseshoe were hammered in too far and have penetrated the sensitive internal portion of the hoof. On top of that, the nail became loose and caused the horseshoe to be misaligned. Bruce’s horse now must be taken back to Ted the farrier to remove the nail and to an equine veterinarian for treatment. - U-Shaped Horseshoe - Durable, Strong Material - Devices to keep the horseshoe in place (i.e. nails) Should have __** - Clasps or buckles to hold the horseshoe in place -<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';">Bindings for the horseshoe that connect with another portion <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';">-<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';">Alignment Adjuster Could have __**<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';">-<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';">“Frog” dam to protect the frog and upper heel of the hoof from penetration Want to have but won’t __**<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';">-<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';">Magnetic implants in the hoof <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';">-<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';">Diamond plating on the horseshoe

His mounted unit is utilized in crowd management, searches, parades, dignitary protection, and so on. They are responsible for patrolling areas which consist of all types of terrain. For two years now, he has been working with his assigned horse for all kinds of police work. The horse is now old and he is about to retire. With no choice, Bob was assigned for a new trained horse Shadow which was never on duty before. Among most horses that have been working in the unit, Shadow used the borium-tipped metal horseshoes which are harder and heavier. It is assumed that these horseshoes can maintain better strengthens their performance especially for horses that are new to the work. traction which s <span style="font-size: 120%; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;"> <span style="font-size: 120%; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">Stepping onto the streets the first day on duty, Shadow seemed to walk confidently with every step. That day, Bob and Shadow were working long shifts and had attended big parade events throughout the heart of the city. The streets were mostly concrete but became wet and slippery due to the pouring rain later on that day. The road conditions varied from scene to scene. Trash covered most areas of the road along with the rain, making it more repulsive to walk through. Later that night, Shadow started to slow down and he showed signs of soreness and lameness. Bob immediately took him to the local equine vet. He was informed that a durable hoof mechanism is very important and that injuries and behavioral problems may occur due to constraints of the horseshoe.

=__Scenario 3: Jockey__= Jasper White is a racehorse owner, he owns a Thoroughbred racehorse “Voltron”, an expensive pure breed horse known for its agility, speed and spirit. Horseshoe studs and rims are inserted in the shoe to create extra traction more better performance on various track conditions. These studs and rims created a burden and wears out the legs and the hooves. Voltron had a small injury in the front left leg during the last derby cup. The horse trainer Richard replaces a new set of horseshoe for Voltron to allow it to rest and recover the stress on the hooves and legs. Jasper did not have time to wait till his horse recovers completely because there is a highly profitable race coming up really soon. As the new horseshoe is nailed, Voltron was ready to race. During the race, Voltron’s injured front leg causes the hoove to be soften, creating a lower heel symptom, causing the horseshoe to misalign and could not sustain the weight load. Voltron fell and sustained a bowed tendon, a serious injury that caused the tendon fiber to be torn. Voltron’s racing career was ended.

__Must have__ - Durable horseshoe for racing performance - Devices to keep the horseshoe in place (i.e. nails)

__Should have__ - Rims and horseshoe studs to create traction - Proper trimming for each leg to predispose the horse to tendon injuries - Alignment Adjuster

__Could have__ - Toe grabs for the horseshoe and adjustment for low heel and long-toe problems

__Want to have but won’t__ - Carbon fiber horseshoe for reduce weight and increase performance
