This is Avery good question. There are 2 ways you can go behind a horse. You can walk 5-6 feet behind them, or directly behind them. 5-6 feet away from them is far enough away that the horse can't reach you should he kick. Walking directly behind them just doesn't allow them enough room to get enough mometum to severly harm you. However, they could jump backwards into you, and they can still kick you if they wanted to, it just wouldn't be a very hard kick.
When walking 5-6 feet away from them, keep talking soothingly so they know you are behind them. If you don't talk, they may spook when you reappear on the other side of them.
When walking directly behind them, get as close to the tail as you can. Put your hand on the horse's rump, and talk softly.
If you are unfamiliar with the horse, walk 5-6 feet away from them. That nis the safest way, although more time-consuming. And make sure you talk or whistle, or make some noise (not a scary noise though) so they know where you are at all times.
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.
well it not such a good idea walking behind a horse but if you must as you are walking behind him run your hand along is/her body so the horse knows your there dont make sudden movements to spook him walk carefuly and softly the horse expert
walk atleast 6 feet behind the horse make lot's of noice so the horse knows your there
Its recommended.
Not necessarily, as long as you put your hand on the horse while walking around it, the horse knows your there and you do not startle it, you should be okay. If the horse is known to kick at people, then you would be better walking in front than behind.AnswerIf you cannot walk, for some reason) in front of the horse then, yes it is better to walk at least six feet behind the horse. It usually puts you out of kicking distance.
you should walk atleast six feet behind it,and..you should talk to your horse very softly to let your horse know where you are.
Talk to the horse at all times in a soothing, calm voice. While walking alongside it and behind it, keep your hand on it's body so it knows where you are. Do not walk up behind a horse without talking to it, otherwise, you will probably get kicked.
Just let him no you are there, Touch his bum and make sure he knows your going behind him/her.
When you are riding on another horse behind a horse, always keep the space of an "imaginary horse" between the two of you. If you are just walking behind a horse, run your hand along their behind to let them know you are there, and if is a bigger horse just make a circle around it.
You first let the horse know your behind him or her by talking to the horse calmly and walk slowly toward the horse so you don't spook him or her. Never Run Behind a horse!!!!$!!!You then gently hand your hand on your horse's behind and continue talking to him or her to let the horse know that its just you that's behind him or her. By then it should be safe enough to do whatever you were going to do. But whenever you are behind a horse, Let The Horse Know That!!!!
make sure the horse knows you are behind them by either keeping your hand on their rump or talking to them.
at least about 1 and a half metres away from its bak luv horse crazy
