This is a very common riding fault. It's very important to be aware of the position of your heel. Your shoulder, hip and heel should make a straight line perpendicular to the horse's topline. If your heel and shoulder are not where they should be you may get 'left behind' the vertical. It also may be helpful for some extra practice in a two-point position over ground poles or cavaletti's.

What to do when walking behind a horse?
Try to avoid ever walking behind a horse, it had suddenly kick. But, if you ever do walk behind a horse, give it a LOT of space, and don't make any sudden movements or noises that will spook the horse.

What does it mean to get your horse on the bit mean?
The term 'on the bit' is a simple question with a semi-complicated answer. I'll try to keep it short and sweet. A horse is on the bit when he has accepted the bit, his mouth is soft and the rider can feel it in their hands. The horse should be foaming and slobbering, which is a good sign. The face should be vertical or nearly vertical with the nose just slightly out. Avoid getting 'behind the vertical', your bit is less effective when you are. As backward as this sounds, 'on the bit' is accomplished not by your hands but with lots of leg and some seat. It is usually for more experienced riders. If you are not driving the horse into the bit with your legs and seat, then you are just pulling on his face and you defeat the whole purpose. I hope I have explained this so it makes sense to you. As with much of riding, on the bit is a feeling. You have to feel it. But when you do, you will know it. It is the correct way to ride, and when you get to this point you and your horse are truly partners, a team.

When walking behind a horse which should you do talk softly so it knows where you arestand close to it's butbe quiet so you don't spook it or stand at least six feet behind the horse?
you should walk behind nd tlk soflty and run your hand over its bum/back. if it is a horse thatis likely to kick the closer you are to it the less it would hurt if it kicked you. if you are a total stranger to this horse i would adise not to walk behind it until it knows who you are. Don't approach a horse directly from behind ever! It's a blind spot in their vision. Even you approach just a little to the right or left (preferably left) then they will be able to turn their head and see you clearly. Otherwise just call the horses name, have a treat in hand, and pat it on the rump as you get nearer to let it know you're there and not some vicious beast.

The shaved are behind a horse's ears is called a bridle path. The bridle path is there to create space for the bridle or halter and to keep the mane from getting entangled in it.
When walking behind a horse should you talk softly stand very close to the hindquarters be extremely quiet so you do not spook the horse or stay six feet behind it?
With a familiar and calm horse, it is OK to calmly (but not timidly) go behind while staying close and keeping a hand on top of his hindquarters. With an unfamiliar horse, it is a good idea to stay out of the "kicking radius", about 6 feet away.
Should you stand atleast 6 feet behind a horse?
Sad experience has taught he how to properly estimate the lenght of a horses kick.^lllThe person who said that did not answer your question. That person simply stated something that happened to him. The answer to your question is yes. You should stand 6 feet behind a horse, if you absoloutely HAVE to stand behind them. Otherwise, avoid walking/standing behind a horse. Also, you should talk quietly to the horse while walking/standing behind a horse to let him/her know your there, otherwise, it may kick for some reason, say a fly was bugging it, and you would get kicked.I hope this helped.-Winnie7573
