I would disagree with Midden here. Replace both to keep damping the same on both sides. The only time I have not done this was when one failed less than 10K miles from fitting.
Yes, always replace shocks, springs, bushes, brakes etc in axle pairs. A new shock absorber or spring will work better than an old one and can upset the balance of the car and effect tyre wear ect if you just replace the one.

Do you have each shock independently set up to counter weight differences of driver/passenger and other effecting loads?
