Yes. As was said, not all horses need to be shoed. If they do, they need to have shoes removed periodically. You should have a ferrier see your horse every 2 months or so to do this. Horses hooves grow continuously, and they need to be trimmed, and to do that, its shoes must be removed.

Horse shoes that have not been too worn can be put back on the horse after trimming. This is called a Reset. After they are too worn, they can be removed and used for lots of different purposes including recycling, crafts, etc.
