When walking behind a horse what do you do?
When going behind a horse, you should: 1. Either stay six feet behind the horse, or be right behind it (only if you know it is a good horse) 2. Talk to the horse softly so it knows you are behind it The reason to stay right behind the horse is so that if the horse kicks you, it won't be able to kick very good, because you would be so close. Tip: Don't touch a horse's flank, that's where most horses are ticklish.

With a familiar and calm horse, it is OK to calmly (but not timidly) go behind while staying close and keeping a hand on top of his hindquarters. With an unfamiliar horse, it is a good idea to stay out of the "kicking radius", about 6 feet away.

What should you do when you walk be hide a horse?
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.

The answer to your question is yes. You should stand 6 feet behind a horse, if you absoloutely HAVE to stand behind them. Otherwise, avoid walking/standing behind a horse. Also, you should talk quietly to the horse while walking/standing behind a horse to let him/her know your there, otherwise, it may kick for some reason, say a fly was bugging it, and you would get kicked.I hope this helped.-Winnie7573
If your walking behind a horse you should?
Don't walk behind a horse. You could get kicked. A horse can't see behind them so if you have to get to the other side walk to the front and around. If your working near the back part, make sure you let the horse knows you're there. Put your hand on his and talk softly to him. If you see someone get kicked, the horse probably was spooked, but if you get kicked, don't worry, I'm sure they didn't do it purpose. :)
