Ask your vet. Different horses have different requirements, and if the shoes are the wrong size, or not the proper type, it can make your horse lame.

Horses who are regularly worked should be trimmed and shod (if you want shoes) every 6 weeks. Horses under light or no work may be able to go up to 8 weeks between trimmings. Shoes are not necessary on every horse, but all horses should have their feet trimmed. Get in touch with a good farrier.
