I do it all the time. I would never do it with a horse I don’t trust, but it’s not a big deal if the horse is on cross ties and he always knows where you are so you don’t startle him. It’s not that much different than walking behind them because you’re in a blind spot either way. Don’t get me wrong, I will never approve of crawling under a horse’s belly or sitting between his front legs or any of that nonsense.

why? i do all the time because i trust the horse. and my dad says that its safer than going around the butt.
NEVER WALK UNDER …
NEVER WALK UNDER YOUR HORSES NECK always walk rather a far distance behind or in front.
and if you know the horse and the horse knows you, you can go VERY CLOSE to the horse butt running your hand across the top or ur horses butt so they know your there. but you NEVER walk under a horse neck
I like the horse, …
I like the horse, very quiet.
And when i had my horse i used to walk under him ALL the time….as long as you both trust each other,
It just depends on the horse really.

If thats a strange horse to you and he dosnt know you well then no shit!
