Horse Behavior and Body Language π΄

Published 2021-03-19
I cover some examples of behavior and body language that horses will display. Sometimes you get mixed signals from similar-looking body language in the ears or tail so I cover a couple examples speaking on this. Next, I show how learning to read a horse's behavior and body language helps when working with a horse. Finally, I give insight into how this later translates to riding your horse and improving communication.
I hope this video is a help in your journey of understanding and reading horse behavior and body language. Feel free to leave a comment with questions or if you would like to share a future video idea π

Who doesn't have a horse but is mindlessly watching these videos π€£

As someone who is both immensely respectful for a horses size and power and (occasionally) intimidated by them, I found this video very useful. Thank you!
-
I love it how your videos always get straight to the point and you don't try to drag it out and make it confusing, they are always so straight forward and I love watching them. : )
-
Good suggestion about riding an experienced horse to get familiar what it should feel like. All beginners need to ride experienced horses.
-
Another flawless tutorial. I wish I had seen this video in class, you present it in such a straightforward fashion and using REAL horses!!!!!!. Not drawings with bad printing clarity although your drawings are really good. Always enjoy your videos and look forward to them every week.

This was nice to watch and learn more about horses. I haven't been around horses much, but recently, I've been volunteering at a horse sanctuary/rescue and been working with older horses. Most of them are sweet, but there are a few aggressive or grumpy ones. It's good to be able to tell their mood.

Appreciate the thoroughness of this video exploring all the different behaviours. But I have to say, Iβve never encountered a horse named Zoloft beforeβ¦ Iβm guessing thereβs got to be an interesting story behind why he was named after an antidepressant! π

Thank you for the great video! I appreciate how you broke it down into sections and took a freeze-frame to explain further. I am going to show this in my Animal Assisted Therapy course!
