How many miles can a horse trot in a day?

Different horse will have different endurance levels. Some horses can only move fast for short periods of time, others for long periods of time, e.g., the Arabian. Trotting is slower than the gallop, but trotting for long periods of time is actually better exercise. The miles that a horse can trot a day depends strongly on that horses fitness, breed, age and conformation. That is a question that has more than one answer, and it highly depends.

How do you train a 3 year old gelding under the saddle effectively?

first you should make sure that your gelding is calm enough to lounge , after lounging is covered and he listens to you correctly the second step can be quite hard,getting a saddle on.Its good to train a horse at a young age, i would have started all this when the horse was about 2 but no need to worry .Lounge him around with a saddle on ,it will get him use to the feeling of a saddle .make sure when u get on him,it is in a small secure { fenced] area with people around you to help out, as all people would say,start of slow!! and very steady ,don't start trotting at all until he really gets use to you,this will take time.


How do you get your horse older on Howrse?

Horses age on Howrse each day you log in to the game. Also, you can use aging points to age your horse by 2 months. If you want to use aging points, train your horse for the day and then put the horse to sleep either in the stall or the pasture. Then click the pyramid and it will tell you how many aging points you have. Use one and your horse will age 2 months and you can start your training over. You can age your horse as much as you want as long as you have the aging points.

What age should you bit a horse at?

Start out with a bosal or side pull and once your horse is respoding to pressure introduce a light snaffle or D ring bit to your horse keeping it not too tight but not too loose in their mouth.Since you normally start riding a horse at the age of 2 then perhaps the age 3 or 4 your horse may be ready for the bit. Don't rush it. You should be able to feel how your horse is working and when he is ready to move on.


When can you ride horse?

A horse should not be ridden before the age of three. This is detrimental to the horse's health, and will cause severe problems in the future. The best time to start training a horse under saddle is when the horse reaches the age of four, when the joints of the animal have properly set.


How much should you exercise your horse?

This depends on the age and health of the horse and what you use it for. However, I think that if you want your horse to be 'fit' then you should be riding it several times a week for at least 30 minutes.


How old do donkeys have to be to pull a cart?

Whether its a donkey, mule, horse or pony, they should not be doing this kind of work until the age of 3. You can start their training at around 2 but there is a lot of training work before they can pull a cart. A donkey or a mule/hinny matures at the age of five, whereas a horse usually matures at the age of four. No animal should be worked before it is skeletally mature, so you can start the training when the colt is two but you have two years in which to train a horse, three to train a donkey or mule (though, being much more intelligent, they actually need much less time to figure out what to do).
