Default How to train a dog to safely run behind a horse

Hi!

Has anyone got any tips of training my young Dalmatian to walk safely
behind our horse (or a good web-site to look up)?

We've tried her on the lead behind the horse and both parties seem
perfectly happy. We just want to go onto the next level correctly.

The Dalmatian can do the basics from puppy training thus far (sit,
recall, down, etc)

Thanks,

John


PS: The Dalmatian is deaf and works from hand signals.

If the horse is well-behaved and trained, you can have the horse walk slowly
and talk to the dog to keep her along.

Puppies pick up on this kind of stuff very quickly. However, she will hit a
stage where she won't listen to you, and you'll need to tie her again. (Or
so I'm told. Mine's not there yet--a Labrador)
