That’s it. Any horse, any time period, any peoples, did they fit a shoe that helped the horse to swim in water?

(Was thinking about how horses are pretty good swimmers, maybe due to their power and hoof shape. Could they be better?)

    Oh, I thought this was going to be about refurbishing and reselling horses.

      My expectation was that one might rotate an equine on an axis other than yaw.

      I’m going to use this as a confusion-inducing insult:

      Yeah whatever, horse flipper.

      So I read it and thought oh I read that wrong what the hell is a horse-flipper how would you do that?

      Then I read the rest of the question and was like oh wow I was right the first time but also still wrong because I thought they meant the verb instead of the noun.

      I thought it was for people that flip off horses for no reason, they just don’t like 'em.
