The off side. The left side is the near side as we always mount a horse and lead on this side so it is 'near' to us.

The near side of a horse is the side from which a rider mounts and dismounts. If you were face to face with a horse, the "near side" would be on your right.

It is called its near side.


What is the off side of a horse called?

The near side is the horse's left side. The off side is the right side. In the horse world, almost everything is done from the near (left) side of the horse.


Why should you lead a horse on the near side?

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. : )


Which side do you tighten your girth from?

You tighten it from the near side (the left side). Everything at horse riding is done at the near side, mounting up, putting on the saddle, putting on the bridle and leading your horse. The only thing that isn't at the near side is your horse's mane. That goes to the off side (the right side). Hope this helped! :)


Should you lead a horse from its left or its right side?

Yes! Even though it is said that you can only get on a horse from the near side (left side), my old man told me it is best if you train your horse to get on and off from both sides. He told me, "This is because if you were to fall off your horse and you had a broken your leg or something, and it just happens to be that you can't get on from the near side, you may stay there in pain until somebody finds you if your lucky enough if your horse wont allow you to get on from the other side." If this occurs, don't get a short tension span with the horse if he/she wont let you on... this may just be your fault for not training them to allow you to get on from both sides. Yes, you can get on from the near side if you want, but i suggest that you get on from the opposite side every now and then.
