When walking behind a horse, there are two things you can do- walk 5-6 feet behind him or walk directly behind him. The first way is the safest and you should do it around an unfamiliar horse. With a horse you know well that you trust, you can walk directly behind him. This way, even if he did decide to kick he wouldn't have enough room to get enough momentum to do much damage. either way you walk around the horse, you should talk softly so the horse knows where you are and do not walk quickly, as this will most likely spook the horse. If you are walking directly behind them, keep a hand on their butt to let them know that you're there.
you should walk atleast six feet behind it,and..you should talk to your horse very softly to let your horse know where you are.
well it not such a good idea walking behind a horse but if you must as you are walking behind him run your hand along is/her body so the horse knows your there dont make sudden movements to spook him walk carefuly and softly the horse expert
you should go to howrseinfo.com and get the answer. for all the rideing levals.
Just let him no you are there, Touch his bum and make sure he knows your going behind him/her.
Not necessarily, as long as you put your hand on the horse while walking around it, the horse knows your there and you do not startle it, you should be okay. If the horse is known to kick at people, then you would be better walking in front than behind.AnswerIf you cannot walk, for some reason) in front of the horse then, yes it is better to walk at least six feet behind the horse. It usually puts you out of kicking distance.
make sure the horse knows you are behind them by either keeping your hand on their rump or talking to them.
Talk softly to it so it knows where you are, and stand at least six feet behind it. =-)
stand at least 6 feet away
Well, this would depend on the horse, and the skill of the person walking behind it. You do not want to startle the horse by speaking loudly or making a sudden rapid movement, but even the presence of a person directly behind them can cause some horses to spook and jump/bolt or kick. It is best to get the horses attention long before approaching their behind, and never approach directly from the back, one needs to be off to the side near the shoulder. If one MUST walk behind a horse, it is best to start at the shoulder place your hand on the horse, keep your body next to his and walk all the way around while touching the horse in a very close manner.
This is Avery good question. There are 2 ways you can go behind a horse. You can walk 5-6 feet behind them, or directly behind them. 5-6 feet away from them is far enough away that the horse can't reach you should he kick. Walking directly behind them just doesn't allow them enough room to get enough mometum to severly harm you. However, they could jump backwards into you, and they can still kick you if they wanted to, it just wouldn't be a very hard kick. When walking 5-6 feet away from them, keep talking soothingly so they know you are behind them. If you don't talk, they may spook when you reappear on the other side of them. When walking directly behind them, get as close to the tail as you can. Put your hand on the horse's rump, and talk softly. If you are unfamiliar with the horse, walk 5-6 feet away from them. That nis the safest way, although more time-consuming. And make sure you talk or whistle, or make some noise (not a scary noise though) so they know where you are at all times.
Try to avoid ever walking behind a horse, it had suddenly kick. But, if you ever do walk behind a horse, give it a LOT of space, and don't make any sudden movements or noises that will spook the horse.
