Speak to the horse gently and try clicking your tongue. Try not to stand direclty behind it as horses have a blind spot directly in front and behind them.

What angle should you approach a horse?

Your horse needs to see you before you come to close or else it might jump and be frightened and that could be bad. So walk towards the front of your horse but when it is far away and then you need to turn your body towards its side and then it can still see you because of where its eyes are placed. If you walk towards the front of your horse and it wants to run it will run right into you and the same with the back do not walk towards the back of your horse because it can kick you and it sure does hurt! the same when your brushing or tacking up your horse it is best to walk around the front of your horse. i hope i have helped. If you need anymore advice just write to me on my message board and i will try to get back to you asap. thankyou.

How do you aproach a new horse?

Well, it all depends on the horse. Always approach the horse from the left or right side of the horse. Usually where the withers are. Slowly talk gently to the horse to let it know that you are there. Then, place our hand on the horse's back. Then you go from there, wether it's bridling and saddling or just simply grooming.


Should you stand close to a horses hindquarters?

Not if he doesnt know you are there! However if you are grooming a horse and have to go round his back it is best to stick close to his hindquaters than go out wide. This is because if he does kick out then his hoof wont get up to the sp[eed and force it would be if he was fully reachin out. He woould just thump you out the way rather than giving you the full effect. Always approach a horse taslking to him or singing or humming so that he knows you are there and alsways approach towards his head.


Can a low backed horse rack?

Answer no Answer They probably could, but it would put a lot of strain on the horse. The rack requires a high head set with a back arched towards the ground. The rack on its own put a lot of strain on a horse all its own. When a horse already has damaged back muscles the rack could injure the horse more and make it un-ridable.
