How do you stop a horse from kicking?

Answer 1

firstly, you've got to check why the horse is kicking in the first place.

• is the girth to tight?
• is your reins to tight?
• is your position right?

Sometimes when your riding, horses like to give a small kick, sometimes for excitement, but mostly because they are uncomfortable.

I hope this is helpful to your question ( : satu231

Answer 2

First try giving and taking with the reins, which means releasing and then tigtening the rein contact. Then try to turn your horse as a horse cannot turn well at a past pace. Ride it in decreasing sized circles until you regain control Praise it for stopping, but do not punish it or it may think it is being told not to stop This is assuming you are riding English/Classical style

Answer 3

sit back

keep calm

pull on the reins

try to turn your horse in a circle if you are in a wide space

talk to them say stuff like steady and whoa

and remember they have to sop at some point they cannot run forever!

Answer 4

First, determine the cause of the kicking behavior, such as pain, fear, or aggression. Address the underlying issue or seek help from a professional trainer or veterinarian. Practice desensitization exercises to help the horse get used to potentially triggering stimuli in a controlled and positive way.

Answer 5

Add another horse to give your horse company or add a horse to a field near them if either of these are not an option then you can add some toys ie treat balls ect??

Answer 6

If your horse bolts, you should try to slow the horse down by getting the horse to go in circles. When the horse slows down sufficiently, jump off.
