@ White Arabian Filly: Hi. It is still not clear what "hoof testers" are. Are these specialised people, tools, or what? Trying to help here - the term is rather inaccessible at the moment and I believe you are trying to get this to GA. DrChrissy (talk) 21:48, 6 June 2016 (UTC)
Putting it at horse hoof may be best for now, although I do think I can round up enough sources to put in something about the common tools at farrier, and then also mention it in the horsey part of the veterinary medicine article. Yep, the equine podiatry people do tend to be a fringe group with odd ideas. I remember one horseshoeing video that had comments by some of them at the bottom. "Hooves are hearts, and they expand and contract when the blood flows into them, which is ruined by horseshoes!" That person needs to ask a vet how hooves actually work... 🙅 White Arabian Filly Neigh 19:56, 10 June 2016 (UTC)
The small section on controversy is insufficient per WP:WEIGHT to cover the vast quantity of published ongoing and repetitive controversies in this industry and specifically for this "show". ▶ I am Grorp ◀ 04:42, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
Somewhere between this article and the Soring article, we could definitely mention that the inspections, in practice, have failed. As I was reading on this subject, these points were made:

My take is that the Walkers West site might be commercial, but the historic information appears to be accurate. I wouldn’t tag it so much “self-published” as “uncited.” I don’t think being a commercial site is, by itself, disqualifying, though if better sources can be found that would be good. JMO.
