The horse, its treatment in health and disease with a complete guide to breeding, training and management . Fig. 635.—Rodway Iron Shoe with Double Grooves Fig. 636.—A Concave Ground Surface nails are driven. No better form of shoe exists for harness work, providedit affords the necessary wear; but this is just where it fails for the heavierclass of horse. The hunting-shoe is concave on the ground surface, with a groovefor the nails round its outer border (fig. 636). This is a good form forhacks and other light horses, as it affords very firm foothold, especiallyupon the grass and soft roads.
