Who Your Horse Spends Time With
We decide who our horses live beside — who comes in at night, who moves to the empty stall — and we rearrange it constantly, for reasons that have nothing to do with them. We have never once thought what this does to them.
Article Summary
You have moved a horse before. Split a paddock, brought one in and left the other out, turned one loose for a break, led a new horse through the gate. You did it for good reasons — footing, owners, schedules, the empty stall — and you never once thought of it as a separation. But the horse standing at the fence, calling into the dark, is keeping a different account than you are. What if the layer we were never taught to watch — who our horse has chosen to stand beside — is the thing that matters most to him? And what if, every ordinary day, without ever meaning to, we are the ones taking that away from him? Not realizing what that does to him.
