Because you never know when the horse will bolt. So the safest way to not get bolted is to lead a horse on the near side. : )
For Horse Isle: The right side of a horse is also known as it's _____ side. Answer: off
The left side of a horse is also known as its near side.
Do walk on the horse's left side, hold the lead rope with your right hand near the horse's head, maintaining a safe distance. Don't walk directly in front of or behind the horse, avoid sudden movements or noises that may startle the horse, and never wrap the lead rope around your hand.
The near side is the horse's left side. The off side is the right side. In the horse world, almost everything is done from the near (left) side of the horse.
You tighten it from the near side (the left side). Everything at horse riding is done at the near side, mounting up, putting on the saddle, putting on the bridle and leading your horse. The only thing that isn't at the near side is your horse's mane. That goes to the off side (the right side). Hope this helped! :)
On the left side of the horse, near the horse's cheek. Um no ^ ................. you lead a Horse from the near side ( Left Side) and you should stand at the Horses shoulder. That is the correct way. (:

No because it gets spooked or bolted you are going to be the first thing it hits. You should lead a horse from the near (left) side.
No, you should walk next to the horse, usually on the near (left) side.
It is rarely a good idea to lead a horse by walking in front of him (sometimes it is necessary if you are walking through a very narrow passageway). Ideally, you should walk by his left (near side) shoulder. That is a much safer position to be in, and it allows you to communicate better with your horse.

Actually, you should walk to the side and ahead of a horse when you lead it, just in case the horse spooks so you will not be run over.
Definitely not. You should walk on the left side of the horse (also the side you mount from). You still lead them by doing this, as they will follow where the lead pulls or goes.

You are in between your horse and traffic that way, it shows your horse it is alright as your horse should trust you
