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.
You should not pull a horse around with anything. You can LEAD a horse with a halter.
When you lead a horse, you should stand between it's head and it's withers, or even at the shoulder. So, no, you should not "lead" it but you should not let the horse lead you.
A halter and lead line. The halter is placed around the horse's head and the lead line is clipped on to the halter so you can lead your horse with the lead line. Lead line=Same as lead rope ;)
You would use a halter and lead rope. The lead rope is attached to the halter, which goes on the head, similar to the bridle. Tip: NEVER wrap the lead rope around your hand, in case your horse bolts.
If your horse is on the correct lead in canter, around a corner the horses inside leg should lead first, so that there is enough balance. If the horse is on the wrong lead, the outside leg will lead and it will be harder for it to get round as it is unbalanced to the strides will be choppy and bouncy to ride.
Do walk on the horse's left side, hold the lead rope with your right hand near the horse's head, maintaining a safe distance. Don't walk directly in front of or behind the horse, avoid sudden movements or noises that may startle the horse, and never wrap the lead rope around your hand.

Actually, you should walk to the side and ahead of a horse when you lead it, just in case the horse spooks so you will not be run over.
Just for everyday use to move a horse from place to place? Well, you use a halter, which goes around the horse's head. You attach a lead rope (also called a lead line or lead chain) to the bottom of it and its an easy way to lead a horse around. Its kind of like having a collar on a dog with a leash.
The left lead, which is the inside front.
Could you please be more specific with your question. Do you mean what type of halter do you use to lead a horse? Or what type of enclosure you lead a horse in? If you explain more clearly what it is you want to know I can provide an answer to your question.
Well, if your horse is trained, you should be able to just squeeze with your lower leg, and your horse should go. If you are referring to walking a horse in hand, then you should stand by the horses should with the lead rope in your hand. Make sure that the lead is NOT wrapped around your hand, because if your horse spooks, it could drag you with it. Move your hand forward, pulling the lead rope forward as well. When the horse begins to walk, lessen the pressure on the lead so that you are barely pushing it forward any more. Making sure that you are keeping pace with your horse. If the horse is well trained, it may not move if you are too far in front of behind the shoulder. Always be careful that you are not standing in front of the horse as well. If you stand directly in front of the horse and it spooks it could very well run you over.
