If you are just excerisng your Horse/Pony in the arena, dismount immediately, and lead your horse out to untack him and call the farrier.
If you are on a Hack and you are far from home, use your mobile phone to call anybody you know with a horse box to come and pick you up, then phone the farrier.
Never continue to ride a horse if it has thrown a shoe, is is most likely to damage the hoof more severly.
You need to make sure that the shoe is completely off and that there are no punture wounds on the sole or frog of the foot from the nail. If the shoe is still partially attached you need to completely remove it, which may require a pair of shoe pullers.
You should keep a well fitting boot on the hoof to protect the bare foot until the farrier is able to see your horse.
If you are riding, walk the horse back to the barn, don't ride.
Call a blacksmith, I doubt the horse would be hurt but walk them out to see if they're lame. Walk the horse carefully back to the barn or stable.
they cant throw a shoe while riding unlike horses in real life so no need to worry
In that situation, you should wrap the hoof in cotton. =)You can also go to the website below for all your riding level needs. =)
A horse with a rider on should not have an issue with any neignboring horse if trained correctly. This would be a bigger problem if paddocks are shared, but while riding the horse is to be compliant with the rider.Regular riding of your horse with you in strict control should build this bond.
walk home (try and find the shoe first) call farrier or blacksmith immediately try to keep stabled
pad the hoof with cotton and wrap it. ^^ you might not have those with you while your riding!!! I suggest you get the horse back to the barn, only at a walk, and then do ^^ and then you should call your farrier to come put a new one on as soon as possible :)
yes no matter what a riding hat should always be worn while riding a horse as if they get spooked they will rear or kick (usually) and you could end up with severe head damage or even death if not wearing a hard hat.
If your horse goes to buck you should try to keep its head up because it is harder for a horse to buck or lay down if its head is up.

riding club champions is ggod, but after a while you have to pay
A stirrup is a ring or frame hanging from a horse saddle by a leather strap. This is where the rider puts his foot to get on the horse and while riding the horse. There is one of each side of the horse.
Smoking while riding has been done by cowboys for a number of years so it is probably a matter of safety or preference. Smoking can be a serious fire hazard in certain instances and controlling a lit cigarette while riding could be difficult.
