Fear no more, you will soon be showing off those hoofs!! I have found the most brilliant tool for all of us horned hoofers.
I went on holiday recently to Madeira and had a pedicure and chirpodist session to remove hard skin on my feet. They used this tool and almost shaved off all my hard skin, you wouldn't believe how much came off - better than when I go to a chiropodist in UK. My feet were left so smooth that I honestly was amazed.
Anyway, took a peek at the tool he used and googled it when I came home. I ordered one and some blades (around £14 in total with delivery). It is called a corn remover, but dont be put off, it comes with an attachment for corns but the blade bit is just for hard skin. I have just used it again and it is bloody brilliant. I will never have to pay chiropodist again to do it.
You must try it, I love it!
