    Approaching squarely in front could be considered aggressive body language by a horse in certain situations. In the event the horse would rear, or lunge forward and rear, you would be directly in the path of the feet.

  16. JJJJview07 says:

    Signal and let the horse know you’re coming. Use voice and eye contact before your approach. Read their mindset. Its polite as well. Approach off center. Flight or fight, if horses interpret danger. They dont ask question first.
    I am more comfortable approaching off center, one side or the other. Training both sides of your horse is good idea.

    if you go up behind a horse and touch them they can jump at the feel of you because they werent expecting it (even if you do call their name)
