B. 3 YrsExplanation
A normal horse should be backed at around 3 years old. At this age, the horse's skeletal system has developed enough to handle the weight of a rider and the stress of training. Starting the backing process too early can put too much strain on the horse's joints and bones, potentially leading to long-term damage. Waiting until the horse is 3 years old allows for proper physical development and reduces the risk of injury.Rate this question:

The correct answer is "Inside Leg on Girth Outside Leg behind girth." Canter aids refer to the cues given by the rider to the horse to initiate and maintain the canter gait. In this case, the inside leg is placed on the girth (near the horse's belly) to ask for the canter, while the outside leg is positioned slightly behind the girth to support the horse's hindquarters and maintain balance during the canter. This combination of leg aids helps the horse understand the desired gait and maintain the correct lead.Rate this question:
