FDNH 29: Does my horse like me? Aug 11, 2021

Show notes

Does your horses response to you feel off? Does it feel like they don't like you?

Looking for our horses eye contact and facial expressions can be a good indicator to understanding what they feel about us. If they like us, if they enjoy what we are doing with them and to them. But if you're already recognising that your horse isn't stoked to hang out with you how do you go about being a more pleasurable experience for your horse?
