You should stop them, then walk them back to their stall and leave them there until the shoe can be replaced. Have a vet check for damage.
for howrse; padd it with cotton
immedately get off your horse and check out the hoove it threw the shoe off of. and call the shoe person immediately.
they cant throw a shoe while riding unlike horses in real life so no need to worry
Dismount and see if his hoof is OK. If it is not, then walk home. If it is fine, remount and go home, but take it slow.
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.
In that situation, you should wrap the hoof in cotton. =)You can also go to the website below for all your riding level needs. =)
walk home (try and find the shoe first) call farrier or blacksmith immediately try to keep stabled
if you do not have long to go you can carry on riding if you do i would advise to turn back and call the farrier/blacksmith! ...or you could simply put up a stake andplay horseshoes!
Get off your horse and lead them back to the barn. If your a good distance away on a trail, it's alright to ride the horse back, but keep to a walk. Call your farriar immediately. It's not bad for a horse to go missing a shoe, but you shouldn't ride until it is replaced.
OLD ANSWER (100% WRONG!!)It can'tNEW ANSWER (100% RIGHT!!)Horses only throw their shoes if the nails are loose, but an experienced rider (a rookie aswell) could easily spot that before ridingPad the horse's hoof and stop riding.
Ride your horse back to where it's kept. A horseshoe is to keep a horses hooves from wearing down. Some have cleats for different types of riding. The hoof won't be the worse for wear by simply riding back to the stable and getting a new shoe put on.
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.
