Horse Tips
Tip 1: To be safe around a horse, you have to stick your hand out in front of thier nose to let them sniff you.
Tip 2: To be safe when you're on a horse, is to know lateral flection. Lateral Flection is when you make the horses head turn left or right. Sit on your horses saddle with your back slumped back in the saddle. Then take one hand and lift the rope up as high as you can without choking the horse. Then take your other hand, slide it down the rope, make sure the other side of the rope is loose then pull slowly to the left or right, whichever way you wish to go. Then place it down in your thigh.
Tip 3: When you're done saddling the horse, and are getting ready to ride run your horse around and jump over objects so then they won't buck when you're on them.
Tip 4: Make sure you have a pad, a saddle, a carrot stick, a bridal and a leadrope. Also make sure you have a big area for them to run around in.
Tip 5: Be nice to your horse at all times and HAVE FUN!
Tip 6: Always run your horse so if it has to kick it will do it when you are runing it. Jump it over a barrel if you are going to jump on your horse. : )
