Only a certain kind of horse. Those horses carried gold. The word Dakota was the only way of stopping them so bandits couldn't simply stop them by saying "whoah!" or something.

At least i think this is right....Hope this helped! :P

Can you use a tie down with a hackamore on a horse?

Yes, but keep in mind that a hackamore already puts alot of pressure on the horse. It would be better to stop substituting training with gadgets, because it will come back to bite you later.


How do railroad personnel stop a runaway train?

Modern railroad cars are designed to never "runaway". But nothing is totally redundant. So I'll redirect this question: What would you do If you lost your brakes? I think you would find quite a few similarities with yourself and a train engineer. Modern trains can and do runaway. The San Bernardino Train Disaster of 1989 is a case in point. Human error was the cause. The Runaway train could not be stopped, and crashed into a neighborhood, killing many people and the crew. Though the train could not be stopped by railroad personnel, despite "modern design," given time it could have been stopped, say, by demolition of the track with explosives. This runaway train could have been stopped had the proper number of locomotives with the proper amount of braking power been employed for the weight of the load involved. The emergency braking system was simply insufficient to stop weight and downhill momentum. The car analogy doesn't apply very well, because in a car you have the option of reducing your speed, even in a brake failure, by steering into an uphill direction, or even sideswiping stationary objects. We've all seen runaway truck pull-off lanes on long grades, places where the truck can steer off the road onto an uphill slope with a high-friction surface, in case of brake failure. Trains can't do this.

What year did the horse and carriage stop and the cars started?

How many miles does a horse and carriage travel in 1 day?

The amount of miles traveled will depend on the speed of the horse, the weight of the carriage, the terrain that is being covered, the weather, and how often the horse and people need to stop to eat and use the restroom. Typically a horses best travelling gait is the trot, a trot can average 4 to 8 mph in a none racing breed.So if all the factors are in your favor, flat terrain, light people, carriage, and belongings you should be able to cover roughly 16 to 32 miles in a day once you factor in an 8 hour period to sleep, and roughly four hours for taking breaks, using the bathroom, eating, and drinking (both people and the horse).

How do you stop your pony from being stubborn?

Make the horse want to do what you ask it to and make the horse understand you are the leader. To be the leader, move the horses feet forward, left, right and backwards. To make the horse want to do what you are asking it, make what you are asking it be the easiest thing to do. Like, if you want the horse to stop, lope the horse until he is begging to stop, and then, when you give the slightest signal to stop, the horse will stop on a dime.
