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.
You should not pull a horse around with anything. You can LEAD a horse with a halter.
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.
The left lead, which is the inside front.
Because you never know when the horse will bolt. So the safest way to not get bolted is to lead a horse on the near side. : )
You can, but it's best to lead from front left shoulder.
On the left side of the horse, near the horse's cheek. Um no ^ ................. you lead a Horse from the near side ( Left Side) and you should stand at the Horses shoulder. That is the correct way. (:
A halter
Typically a lead is attached to a horses Halter, but some people will clip a lead onto a bridle as well.
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.
To walk a horse, you would use a halter and lead rope. : )
You are in between your horse and traffic that way, it shows your horse it is alright as your horse should trust you
lead rope and a halter(halter goes on the head and a lead rope attaches to a loop on the bottom of the halter
