Hoofjack Hoof Stands - Good Things To Know Before You Buy
The HoofJack hoof stand is designed to hold and comfortably support a horse's hoof through all phases of trimming, shoeing, treatment, or daily care.
It has a wide, sturdy base that supports one of two different included accessories: a post to hold the hoof while extending the leg forward, or a cradle to hold the hoof while bending the leg backward.
A knob on the side of the base can be loosened or tightened to easily adjust the height of the post or cradle, and also allows them to be changed from one to the other in seconds.
The base of the Hoofjack has two large, round magnets to hold rasps, nails, hoof picks, or other items that may need to be kept handy.

Hoofjack Uses
The folks at Hoofjack suggest a few possible uses of the Hoofjack, including:
- Supporting the hoof for daily cleaning.
- Supporting the hoof for treatment or bandaging.
- Using the Hoofjack eliminates the need for the handler to put the hoof between their knees (an awkward position for a lot of people).
- If your horse has the bad habit of leaning on you when you pick up a hoof, let them lean on the Hoofjack instead of you. For some horses, leaning on the handler is a bad habit that should be discouraged or broken. For other horses, such as horses with stiff joints, letting them lean on the Hoofjack can help keep them more comfortable.
- A Hoofjack has an adjustable height so it can help make horses with a limited range of motion more comfortable. This can help keep the horse, and you, more patient and a lot happier.
