When riding what safety distance must be between each horse?
Horses are large animals that need plenty of space. They can also be temperamental. When riding, a gap about the length of one horse should be kept between horses. (When riding abreast, the width of one horse should be kept between the riders). Horse's stalls should not be shared - each horse should have its own stall. The stalls should also be large enough that when standing in the middle of the stall, neither of a horse's neighbours can reach it. The horse should have room to turn around and lie down comfortably in the stall. The statement that horses all sleep standing up is a myth - horses can sleep standing up, but many prefer to lie down, and this takes the strain off their joints. Horses need at least an acre of pasture each.

When leading a horse should you walk in front of it so that it knows where to go?
You should never, ever walk in front of a horse when leading it! This is a dangerous place to be should the horse spook or attempt to run you over. You also cannot see the horse and you have no control over him in that position. You should walk to the left of the horse, beside its neck, with the lead in your right hand. Think of the horses head, his shoulder and you between them as points on a triangle. From this position you can see your horses head and if he should spook you are out of his way. You also have control over him via the lead rope and if he pushes into you, you can use your elbow to move him over.
