Different ones have different prices. Just to trim can cost about 30 dollars. A trim and to put on shoes can cost twice that. Especially if you have a hard to shoe horse or a horse with special needs.

It all depends on where you live, how often the farrier visits and what you have done.

A horse needs his feet tended to every 5-8 weeks on average.

If you have your horse trimmed, you might be looking at $25-$50 per visit, depending on what part of the country you live in. If you have your horse shod in front and trimmed behind, it might be anywhere from $75-$125/visit. That also depends on cold shoeing (where the shoe is fitted without the iron being heated first) or hot (using heat to help shape the shoe). Four shoes might cost anywhere from $100 on up.

The more specialized the shoeing, the more expensive it will be. If your horse needs therapeutic shoes such as eggbars or heartbars, or if you want them tapped so you can add caulks/studs, or your farrier makes custom shoes, the more it will cost.

In addition, price seems to also depend on any credentials your farrier might have. If he's got his journeyman's certification and/or regularly attends educational courses, you will pay a premium for that education.

The cost of a good farrier is one of the many expenses that make owning a horse all but impossible for many people. Of course rates can vary greatly from one region to the next but the average is $30 - $50 for just a trim and $80 - $120 for shoes. Half shoe usually runs about $60.

How much does a farrier cost?

The average farrier costs are: $30 for a trim, $60 to shoe only 2 hooves, and $90 to shoe all 4 hooves. However, this will vary on if your horse needs special shoes/trimming, and who does your horse's hooves. A professional will cost more than your neighbor who does some farrier work on the side.

How much does it cost to get a horse shooed?

It really depends on your farrier, and your horses needs. If your horse needs a shoe on all 4 hooves, it will definitely be more expensive than if your horse just needs a trim and no shoes. . . My horse gets her hooves trimmed, plus 2 shoes on her front hooves. This is usually $50-$55. My friend's horse only gets a trim, so her farrier bill is usually $30-$35. I know a horse that needs all 4 shoes, so his farrier bill is usually $75. It really depends on your farrier though, some are cheaper than others.


How much would it cost a year to get a horse hoofs done?

This will depend on the farrier as a general rule, the better the farrier the more they charge typically. But it will also depend on if the horse needs corrective trimming/shoeing. However you can expect to pay $200 or more per year for minimal hoof care.

I really depends on the area and the service being provided. Near where I live, the cost for just a trim is from $20 to $30. For just regular shoes it's about $60 for a reset. For speciality shoes (reining, jumping) it can be up to $180 (in my area) for a reset.


How much do ferries cost to come do your horse?

Do you mean farriers, as in the people who trim and/or shoe your horse's hooves? One farrier lists his prices as :$30 for a trim, $60 for a pair, and $90 for all 4 shoes. This is about the normal price for a farrier. However, if your farrier does corrective work on the feet, the price will vary, depending on what work he does. And some farriers give discounts if you have so many horses done at the same time.
