Just a little experiment how cheap and lightweight an hoof boot could be without R&D cost, not designed for extensive use. It's parameterizable to get a better guess on material needed compared to hoof sizes.
Be aware ill fitting hoof boots may cause lameness, bruising, ... and high vet cost.
For correction purposes or regular use get professional horse shoes. There is at least one company out there 3D printing customised shoes.
This was designed without any knowledge on biomechanics.
Use at your own risk.
This is a parameterizable file created in FreeCAD 0.21.1. Sizes can be changed in the Spreadsheet, but might break the whole thing. Maybe I missed some topological naming problems or the resulting shape is unable to fit all the holes.
About the design: I decided to orient myself on roman Hipposandals, after 2000 years their patents should have run out. Hooks are not sensible to be done with flexible material - instead I added some holes for chicago screws and from there
