The present invention concerns a pad-like support device (1) intended to be attached between a horse's hoof (2) and a horseshoe (3) comprised of at least one first side part (6), at least one second side part (7), at least one middle part (8) and a support section (9) for the frog, and at least one first flexible zone (10) and at least one second flexible zone (11) extending essentially along the pad-like support device's longitudinal direction. This design allows for the support section (9) and the middle part (8) to be flexibly arranged in the horizontal and vertical directions relative to the first side part (6) and the second side part (7). The first side part (6) and the second side part (7) include at least one first material layer (29) constituting a surface layer on the topside of the side parts (6, 7) and at least one second material layer (30) constituting a surface layer on the bottom side of the side parts (6, 7) and at least one intermediate material layer (31) positioned between the first material layer (29) and the second material layer (30) of a relatively softer material than the material of the first material layer (29) and the second material layer (30). Material layer (31) is partitioned into at least two sections (34) by at least one intermediate wall (35) that stretches between the first material layer (29) and the second material layer (30).L'invention concerne un dispositif de support de type coussinet (1) destiné à être fixé entre le sabot (2) d'un cheval et un fer (3). Ce dispositif est constitué d'au moins une partie premier côté (6), d'au moins une partie deuxième côté (7), d'au moins une partie intermédiaire (8) et d'une partie support (9) pour la fourchette, au moins une première zone flexible (10) et au moins une deuxième zone flexible (11) s'étendant sensiblement sur la longueur du dispositif. Cette conception permet à la partie de support (9) et à la partie intermédiaire (8) d'être disposées flexibles dans les sens horizontal et vert
