You put your hand on the horse's rump and slide it across until you are on the other side.
hind right, two diaganal, front 4th.
The horse has 3 basic gaits. Walk (4 beat), trot (2 beat) and canter/lope (3 beat). For the walk the horse will step forward with one hind foot and then the opposite front foot steps forward and visa-versa. Example: right hind=left front then left hind=right front. This only applies to the walk. Trot and canter have their own cadance.
No, you should walk next to the horse, usually on the near (left) side.
A pirouette is a dressage movement where the horse spins, keeping it's hind feet in place. In dressage it is performed at the canter, but when you pirouette at the walk it is called a turn on the haunches.
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.
it is always important to be careful when walking behind a horse. talk to it as you walk down its side toward its hind end. carefully place your hand on its back and run it along its body as you walk. when you get to his hind end, stay as close as you can to its rear without being right on it. this will minimize damage if you get kicked because there will be less force.
To walk a horse, you would use a halter and lead rope. : )
False. you should walk right beside the horse's ear.
I usually walk on the left side and walk confidently and the horse will follow
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.
you can but it's not recommended you should stand to the left of the horse/pony.
No. You should walk to theleft of the horse. Hold the lead rope firmly, but don't wrap it around your hand. Just walk in a straight line, or wherever you need to go, and your horse should follow, unless he/she is stubburn. Then you should speak calmly to the horse, and pull on the rope gently, until the horse moves forewords.
