People who interact with horses often wish they could tell us how they feel. But by tuning into horses’ body language and facial expressions, we can discover a wealth of information that helps to indicate how positively or negatively a horse is feeling at that point in time.

Horses tend to communicate visually rather than verbally because it much safer for prey animals not to make noises that might draw unwanted attention. They are incredibly good at reading subtle signals given out by other horses, but that are very easy for humans to miss.

Quarantine is in place at our Hapton HQ in Norfolk after a horse tested positive for strangles.
