It hasnt happened to me for 3 years. Maybe try a new farrier?
How many times a month does your horse pull his/her shoes off?

Does he wear overreach boots? Was discussing this problem yesterday as I have same problem. Was told overreach boots were my answer with hoof hardner.
I was also told to work my horse harder to stop him hooning around in the first place!

He is always turned out with overreach boots on, it is a necessity. I think because he has heart bars it is always going to be a problem.
Funny you should mention about more exercise, i've had the week off work and have worked him every day!!!

My horse has lost 5 shoes since 1990!!!! fantastic farrier and only uses 2 nails each side of the shoe. No word of a lie.

Mt TB used to pull shoes on a regular basis when at my last yard. He has since changed yards and has only lost one since being there! ( moved in september). I am now making sure he is shod every 5 weeks even if he dosent look like he needs doing as can become loose in a day with him! its quite hard with thoroughbred feet but im really pleased at the mo also hes is now on NAF hoof supplement.
