Since the mod is from 2013, check if you need compatibility patches for your Skyrim version (Special Edition or Anniversary Edition).
Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to handle the installation and load order.
Test the follower horse behavior in a safe area first to see how it works with your current follower mods.
