Equine Care Hoof Tester for Horses, 13 Inch Chrome Vanadium Steel — Open-Box, 5% Off

[SEE HOW THE HOOF RESPONDS] Press evenly at points across the sole, frog, heel, and hoof wall to find the sore or tender spot and see how the horse responds. For users used to handling a hoof; not a substitute for your vet.

[FIXED 13-INCH, SIZED FOR EVERYDAY HORSES] A fixed 13-inch tester sized for everyday horses and ponies, made for horse owners, barn managers, and farriers who are used to handling a hoof.

[STEADY TWO-HAND SQUEEZE] The handles open wide to reach across the hoof, so use both hands for a firm, even squeeze - especially at the wider openings.

[CHROME VANADIUM STEEL, 13 INCH] Made from chrome vanadium tool steel with a 13-inch reach for leverage on the hoof. Wipe it dry after use and oil the pivot now and then.

[ONE FIXED-LENGTH TOOL] Includes one 13-inch hoof tester for routine barn and field hoof checks. This model has a fixed length and is not adjustable.
