never ever do that because you might get trampled if the horse gets scared. always stay on the left side of the horse you are walking.

If you are leading a horse should you stand in front of the horse?

Yes and no. You should be leading from the left side, slightly in front of the horse. The horse's front feet should track next to you and its head should be at or near your right shoulder.

When you're leading a horse should you walk right in front of it to show it where to go?

No, you should never stand directly in front of a horse. They could strike out at you with their front hooves or try to bite you and you won't be able to see the horse's body language in case they start to spook at something. Always lead the horse with the horse to your side and wearing a harness and lead rope.

When you walk a horse how can i break it from walking ahead of me?

You should call a trainer or more experienced friend to help you. But generally the best way is to carry a dressage whip in your left hand, while you are leading the horse with your right hand. When the horse starts to push to the front simply bring the handle of the whip up to chest level and let the horse bump into it. He will learn that he is not supposed to go past you. Alternatively you can stop walking and make the horse back up each time he tries to get in front of you. Eventually he will stop doing it.

No, you should lead a horse either at his head or his throat. The horse knows where youa re going judged on where you are facing. It is dangerous to walk in front of a horse, because if they spooked, they could run right over you.

No, you should never walk in front of a horse. It may bite or rear up on top of you. You should stand to the left if you are leading him normally or stand to the right if you are leading him on a road. hope this was useful.


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.


When walking the horse should you be in the front showing it where to go?

When walking your horse you want to be beside it on the left side along the neck/head area. You never want to walk in front of a horse as it could step on you and seriously injure you. While leading the horse the lead rope should be held in the right hand and the rest of it coiled up in the left hand. It is best done if someone can show you first. And never wear flip flops around horses! Actually, you should be able to walk on either side of a horse. Any well trained horse will let you do anything on either side: mount, lead, lunge, etc. And make sure the lead rope is not coiled around your hand. It can be coiled, but keep your hand out of the coil. Just wanted to make that clear, because if it is coiled around your hand and the horse spooked, you could be dragged around after the horse, possibly be trampled and kicked and most definitely break your hand.


When you lead a horse around where should you be..?

About even with its throat latch, is how I do it. and the side should not matter, as every horse should be trained to lead from either side. The horse should also be trained to keep his head right in front of your shoulder, keeping you even with his throat latch. He should adjust to your speed and position, not you to his speed and prefered position.
