Dismount and go back.
If you are trail riding, its always handy to carry an Easyboot; then you can put it on and continue riding.
Make sure all nails, etc.. are out of the hoof.
Save the shoe if you have it for the farrier.
If you have a very tender-footed horse, and are on rocky terrain, you can try making a "wrap" around the hoof with a bandana and clothing or several layers of Duct Tape to minimize damage on the way back. Make sure its on tight.

If the shoe was not thrown cleanly, call your vet if excessive damage is present, and call your farrier. Either way- call your farrier because your horse without one shoe is like you without a shoe. You should also try to find the shoe so that no one steps on it and injures themselves.

If a horse throws a shoe while riding what should you do?
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.

On howrse Pad the hoof with cotton and wrap it securelyThe most important thing to do when your horse throws a shoe while riding is to get off (of course) and check to make sure the shoe is completely off. Check the sole and frog of your horses hoof to make sure there are no puncture wounds from the nails. If the horseshoe is still partially attached to the hoof, the shoe MUST be removed before moving the horse. Sometimes you can do this by hand but you may need a set of shoe pullers to safely remove the shoe. To prevent damage to the horses hoof, make sure you feel comfortable doing this or have someone else who is familiar with the process to do it. People who trail ride often or for long distances often carry a hoofpick, a set of shoe pullers AND a boot that can be put on the bare hoof until the farrier is able to put on a new shoe. In most situations, it is enough for you to walk (do not ride) your horse back to the barn. Unless there is an injury or existing hoof problem, padding or wrapping the hoof is usually not necessary. A well fitting boot is a good thing to always have on hand for just such emergencies. Boots are a good way to protect the hoof until your farrier can make the trip to see your horse. (I highly recommend Boa Boots) Always use good common sense and your own judgement. If you think your horse was injured when the shoe came off OR if you have any doubts, ALWAYS call your vet or farrier to ask their advice before moving the horse.If your horse throws a shoe while you are riding what should you do?Pad the hoof with cotton and wrap it
