I hope your not kicking him hard:/ I have two horses though and i would assume he/she is trying to nudge it away so it does not happen again. Generally they just do it though to try and "push" you back. Horses may not be human but they sure like revenge!

How do you get a horse to listen to your commands?

Some horses respond better with voice or leg. If leg then to get them to walk, give them a nudge and trot, another nudge. Canter, put your outside leg back and inside leg slightly forward and squeeze hard. If they don't respond then give them a harder nudge or a little tap with the crop / whip. If voice then tell them to walk, tell them to trot, canter and so on. Saying it in a calm, clear voice would be ideal. Hope this helped!

To hit a horse with the leg is called?

I think this question is refering to what is know as a "leg aid". It's not so much a kick as leg pressure to direct the horse to what the rider wants him to do. Well trained horses should always understand leg pressure which can be heels, calves, thighs or butt (seat in horse talk).


Whats the best way to motavate a horse to canter?

First you have to put yourself in a two point postion. Back straight, inside reins up outside reins taught, with the horses head pointing to the outside. Your inside leg should be by the girth your outside leg behind it. Tell your horse you're planning to canter then nudge him three times to get him to go, he'll probably start with a trot nudge again til he canters. You'll know the whole beat changes.

To get your horse to go faster, first you squeeze the horse's sides by bending your heels down and pushing them towards the horse. Next, you kick. If none of the above work(and if possible) you use your crop on the shoulder or hind leg quarter area. This should work.
