Best Answer

It is best for horses to have a least one horse companion as they are herd animals and can feel nervous and unsafe without another horse. They will also get very lonely, and could also get moody and bad tempered because he is being isolated. So, if possible, do get another horse to go with your current horse. Many horses are for sale as companion only, as they are no longer ridable. Or, a rescue centre might loan you a horse for companion. Hope I've helped!

Riding your new horse?

Well when you first ride your new horse you want to just get a feel for how the horse reins and how he or she reacts to your leg and hand signals. Your horse may have been trained differently then you, and you should just get the feel of him or her the first time you ride. Hopefully you have not bought the horse yet and you are just trying him or her out at the breeders, but if you have bought him of or her already, that is OK too.


When leading a horse in hand should you walk in front of the horse?

No never, not even if going through a narrow gap, always walk to one side so the horse doesnt bolt and trample you. absolutely not, you don't want to lead directly in front of the horse, but you don't want to lead right behind the horse either. you should lead the horse from your right, so the horse does does not feel intimidated. When going through a small gap, it is nice to be able to lunge the horse in a small half circle through the gate, yield his hind quarters and then walk through, so that you both don't have to swish through. It's safer to do it this way.
