Trotting is a particular gait: it is a diagonal gait moving the right front and left rear forward at the same time and then followed by the left front and right rear together. Trotters only race trotters.

When trotting on the correct diagonal you should?

When posting at a trot, i would recogmend to look down at the right "shoulder" of the horse, and when you are rising, make sure that the right shoulder appears to be in a downward position.

Eventually you will learn to feel what is the right diagonal and such.

What are some tips on mucking horse stalls faster. You have 12 to do then you have to put sawdust in.?

Answer

scoop out the obviously dirty muck and screen the remaining - not so dirty muck -. We use a piece of chicken wire nailed over a 3 x 3 wood frame. It saves having to replace about half the sawdust. Scatter what goes through the screen and discard what does not. If you top-dress the stall with fresh sawdust it looks good. If you have dirt floors, do whatever is necessary to keep the dirt level. Perhaps, level your floors and then put mats in the stalls. Use plenty of dehydrated lime to deal with the ammonia. Stalls do not have to be clean... they only have to look - and smell - clean.

Okay...

This is the person who wrote the question: The floors are like gravel with wire over it so the pee sinks down in and keeps the ammonia to a super low low smell. I use a pitchfork for the remaining, and the dirty, but your advice was great, thanks! The last part-- I like that- Lol.

What is a Form of trotting or running at a slow or leisurely pace?

the gaits of a non gaited horse include 4 major, and all together 7, including English style gaits, and western style gaits. the major ones are walk, trot, canter, gallop. the picky ones are (from slowest to fastest) walk, jog[western], sitting trot[in between kinda bumpy, but not bad], posting trot, lope[western], canter[English or all round], and gallop. usuall in a western style like western pleasure u wouldn't gallop, but u would do a very slow (depending on the horse), very comfortable (again depending) jog. so i guess ur answer is called a jog. any non-gaited horse can do it.

Why is a walk called a Toby?

I had never heard this use before, but the Oxford English Dictionary lists as one of the definitions of toby to be "the highway" in thieves' slang. It is thought to have originated from toba' from tobar, the word for "road" in Shelta, the secret language of the Irish tinkers. It dates back in print to 1807.

In New Zealand, 'toby' is widely used to mean the mains water tap outside a house frontage, presumably because it is on, or at the side of, the highway.

This seems to have spread from Irish immigrants to Australia, and thence to NZ. Where the word is never used for 'highway', though it probably still is in the UK (where a 'Tobyman' meant a highwayman.

As a diminutive of the name Tobias, the Toby jug (Toby Fillpott) has no connection; it occurs in Cockney rhyming slang in 'toby jugs' for ears (lugs). Similar to 'Tobermory' for an unlikely story, from the main village of the island of Mull in Scotland.

Why does 2007 Wyoming State Quarter D with the simple horse and rider on back have on the right hand side below rider the word men clearly stamped?

Almost, but not quite. The letters are "nen"; they're the initials of the coin's engraver, Norman E. Nemeth.

Engravers' initials have caused problems with several other coins as well:

* Mercury dimes - A. A. Weinman's monogram is often mistaken for a West Point mint mark, even though the West Point Mint wasn't opened until about 40 years after the last Mercury dime was struck.

* Lincoln cents - public outcry over supposed "egotism" caused Victor D. Brenner to remove his initials from the reverse of the cent in mid-1909. They weren't restored till 1918 and then were much smaller, tucked under the edge of Lincoln's shoulder. * Jefferson nickels - Felix Schlag's initials did not appear on the coin for almost 30 years. They were only put on after he died. * Roosevelt dimes - right-wing zealots who hated Roosevelt claimed that John Sinnock's "JS" on the coin's obverse was actually a coded reference to Soviet dictator Josef Stalin (!!)
