Horses are remarkable teachers because they have an honest, accurate, and uncanny ability to size people up instantly. Because horses are prey animals, their very survival depends on their ability to detect and evaluate a predator’s state of being. When we interact with horses, their response to us is immediate, truthful, and non-judgmental. They are mirrors reflecting back to us the state of our energy and body language.

“A good horse needs very little, but he needs htat very little a whole lot.”

Cowboy and trainer Buster McLaury in “Buster Says…”

“When I hear somebody talk about a horse or a cow being stupid,
I figure it’s a sure sign that animal has out foxed them.”
Tom Dorrance
