Location: Four Corners Colorado | After learning to trim my own and doing it for years, I have come to the conclusion that farriers don't charge enough. I feel $50 to trim is a fair price, to trim a well behaved horse. I'd tac on extra if the horse is a pain Lol. $100-$120 is probably fair for shoes. If you are way out of the way or not on the schedule I'd expect a trip charge. |

Out here in MO anywhere from 55 to 150 for four new. I was paying 85 for a guy that started out great then went to crap.
Now I just trade sex and a hot meal for my shoe jobs..... |

I'd faint over some of these prices, but my farrier would smile!

Location: MI | Trim: $35. I've seen $25 advertised around here. Most of the time I trim mine (I went through a course) or my vet (did farrier work through get school, was educated; doesn't normally trim for people anymore I don't think but I trust him) does them for $35.
Fronts: he would charge me $85; I don't currently have any that need shoes. Also had a quote from my daughters English trainer's farrier $135, $175 for all 4. |

Butttt my dad is my farrier so he doesn't charge me :P Those are his prices though, been a farrier for 30+ years and doesn't change his prices unless it's for corrective shoeing. |

Location: Up and over to the right | Holy hot dogs!
I pay $50 trim, $125 for 2, $225 for 4 and my guy is averagely priced.
That's what I get for living in the NE where even breathing is an expense…
I will see the $300-500 range when it comes to aluminums, drill & taps, special pads, etc. But I'm talking high end HJ/dressage horses.

Same here!! Hahahaha!! We had a guy come do 2 trims and 2 full sets. I wasn't happy with either of my trims and hubby's head horse pulled a front shoe in a week. Not to mention they looked overdue after 2 weeks he left them so long. So instead of paying someone that doesn't care about my horses, hubby does them. He takes his time bc he knows I'm a perfectionist lol. And my horses' feet look great again!
