Lord Shagg-Pyle:
I was told by my wife that if a horse puts its ears forward, it is being friendly and wants to say hello.
Why is it then, that when I went to say 'hello' to an equine at my wife's stables, that it puts its ears forward and bit my hand? Evil creature! Both my wife and the horse!

beast5680:
Horses.....hateful things they make me sneeze and cough as i,m allergic to them i find it best to avoid them completely

narked:
I tend to find that regardless of the positioning of the ears in relation to everything else, they try to bite me. Or if I am not available to be bitten, and they happen to be out in the yard, they bite my car instead.

And once again I have been roped into collecting haylage this afternoon. Yet do the walking tins of Pedigree Chum appreciate this? Nope!

P16LET:
Maybe it operates on the same basis as a dog wagging it's tail won't bite....that's absolute tosh too, as the three small yappy pointless dogs I've launched into orbit after attaching themselves to my person, were all wagging their tails beforehand..... :shock:  :wink:

clbarclay:
The way to a horses heart (like most creatures) is through its mouth, offer them a polo or apple chunk first and then they tend to be a lot more appreciative of you. Alternatively just give them a wide birth, after all how would you react if a natural preadator walked up to you?
