John Wayne had a film career that lasted more than 50 years. It would be impossible for him the use the same horse but his later movies he did use his own horse, a 16HH chestnut Quarter Horse who went by the name Dollar.
I think in Cahill:US Marshal Wayne was forced to ride a mule (donkey/horse cross) due to lack of a better mount. There may have been other movies where he rode a mule but I can't remember.
Where have all the cowboys gone, Save a horse ride a cowboy.

Yes. The most serious riding accident John Wayne has was in 1969 during the filming of The Undefeated. He fell from his horse and fractured three ribs.

In no particular order John Wayne rode Bo (or Beau), Dollor, Dollar, Cochise, Duke, Banner, Steel, Alamo, and Starlight The two he rode for the longest period of time seem to be Banner (14 years) and Dollar
When Wayne was a child his transportation to and from school was a bony old horse (can't recall it's name). Although Wayne is best known for his westerns, they comprised only about one half of his total movie tally. Most people would be surprised to find out that John Wayne was not a big fan of horses. He always said he would rather spend time with a dog. He liked dogs. In his later movies he used his own horse (Dollar), a 16hh chestnut with a wide blaze and long stockings. If my memory hasn't completely failed, the horse was sold shortly before or after his death in 1979 for $15,000.
That horse was the director's idea. He was very flashy but was an airhead and John Wayne hated him. I think this was the movie where JW backed that Appaloosa over a wooden bridge. I don't know if this is correct but I think they had to replace that horse 1/2 way through the filming because it was such an idiot. add: I'm thinking the director was Howard Hawkes and I had heard that he actually owned that particular horse. Don't know if that is true or not.
