How much money do you have to spend at what level?

I still recommend the Psychoactive Skin of Proteus.

What about the collar of healing from the MIC. Lets you see your Mount's Red Bar and you can cast heal on it once per day.

#1 Remember the paladin's mount is a magical Beast, NOT an animal.

A paladin’s mount is treated as a magical beast, not an animal, for the purpose of all effects that depend on its type (though it retains an animal’s HD, base attack bonus, saves, skill points, and feats).

So spells or magical objects that specifically work on animals will not be of any use to your mount. For example

Horseshoes of Speed
These iron shoes come in sets of four like ordinary horseshoes. When affixed to an animal’s hooves, they increase the animal’s base land speed by 30 feet; this counts as an enhancement bonus. As with other effects that increase speed, jumping distances increase proportionally. All four shoes must be worn by the same animal for the magic to be effective.

Faint transmutation; CL 3rd; Craft Wondrous Item, haste; Price 3,000 gp; Weight 12 lb. (for four).

HoS won't work for a paladin's mount or a centaur. Horseshoes of a Zephyr would work for a paladin't mount if it was a horse of some kind.

Horseshoes of a Zephyr
These four iron shoes are affixed like normal horseshoes. They allow a horse to travel without actually touching the ground. The horse must still run above (always around 4 inches above) a roughly horizontal surface. This means that nonsolid or unstable surfaces can be crossed, and that movement is possible without leaving tracks on any sort of ground. The horse moves at its normal base land speed. All four shoes must be worn by the same animal for the magic to be effective.

Faint transmutation; CL 3rd; Craft Wondrous Item, levitate; Price 6,000 gp; Weight 4 lb. (for four).

It's worth noting that according to MIC, horses have all the same body slots that humans do except rings. So any item that would be useful for a humanoid PC (eg, Cloak of Resistance, various stat-boosting items, etc.) can be had for your mount. Might need a little refluffing (eg, a cloak would be more of a horse blanket kind of thing, gloves would be horseshoes on the front legs, etc) but by RAW the cost would be the same. The only exception as far as cost differences go is barding, which does cost more than regular armor depending on the size of your mount.
