Best Answer

Some horses where shoes at the age of 1 year to correct themselves, but generally a horse will be shoed for the first time between the ages of 3 and 4.

Most horses never get shoed. Shoes are put on horses if they are to do certain types of jobs or they have a foot defect. A healthy trail horse may never see shoes.

How often should you change your horse's shoe-and-can-you-re-use-the-old-shoe?

If your horse is shod then you should have the farrier visit every 6 to 8 weeks to trim the hoof and reset the shoes. You should have new shoes put on the horse as old ones can be a bit deformed or worn thin, but it is a good idea to carry a few old ones around with you for emergency spares if your at a show or on the trail etc.
