Just interested to know what people pay for there horses/ponies shoeing.
With my farrier it's.
£70 pony
£80 horse
£20 for a trim.
Do you think to the price fair or over priced ?
 
Essex
Not sure about ponies
Horse - 4 shoes £65
Fronts and trim - £45
Trim £20 or £25

My friend had a horse with hooves like dinner plates and she had to pay £95! Ouch :eek:
 
£60 for new set
£55 refits
£100 for remedials behind and normal fronts
£20 trim
£5 replace pulled shoe, £10 if new needed

I live in county durham, keep my horses at home so he only does mine and he has a 18 mile drive to get to me. I am the only person he does in my area. He will also only trim the pony when/ as he needs it, usually 3mthly as his feet hardly grow and doesnt charge extra for just doing 1 set.
 
Add to above: he charges me £10 to put a new one on if naughty pony takes it off in field.
We take the horses to forge 30 mins hack or 10 mins in box.
Always accomodating if we need one replaced in an emergency.
 
Lincolnshire

Full set £55
stud hones £5 extra
Trim £20

Always on time, kind and patient with horses, refits lost ones for free (even when it's because of horses rubbish crumbly feet) and always comes with 24 hours of my panic call to say one's missing - I'm very lucky

Oh and he will come when booked - look at them and tell me they'll go another 2 weeks and re-book for then (no charge for this call out!)
 
£60 full set, £40 for fronts and £20 for a trim.
Lost shoe, free, sometimes £7.50.

Visit for advice/check on lameness/laminitis/abscess etc, free, even if its not your own farrier (but happens to be on the yard).

Pretty good value really.
 
in south wales a full set is around £55 ,trim £15 my new horse came from hereford and they pay £90 a full set !! id have a fit if it was that much for me:eek:
 
Gloucestershire: £75 a set, most farriers are about that price now around here.

10 years ago i only paid £45 a set for my 14.2, its just gone up and up and up!

Farrier the other day wanted £20 for a lost shoe and i had the shoe, thats a joke!!
 
Berks
£90 - remedial front / normal back another farrier on our yard charges £110 for remedial
£70 - if he can re-use shoes
