Tonya the horse doesn't have feeling in the hooves so I've been told Ruth
Not in the hoof wall but under the sole (bottom) they have blood veins that help keep the hoof growing & the 'inside' portion they can feel....if there's something in the sole/frog that causes pressure or pain they can feel that. But not in the hoof wall itself (the outer) which is why we can put nails thru it when shoeing.
