Iโve never seen a more misunderstood animal more than ๐๐ก๐ ๐๐จ๐ซ๐ฌ๐ ๐๐ก๐๐ญ ๐๐ฌ ๐๐ฎ๐ซ๐ญ๐ข๐ง๐ .

Iโve been trying to tell you that I am in pain, but you donโt seem to listen.
I show you that Iโm in pain by not being willing to work but you just call me ๐ฌ๐ญ๐ฎ๐๐๐จ๐ซ๐ง or ๐ฅ๐๐ณ๐ฒ. Instead of helping me, you just ๐ค๐ข๐๐ค ๐ก๐๐ซ๐๐๐ซ.
I show you that Iโm in pain by rearing when you try to ride me, but you enjoy showing people you can sit to a rear. Instead of getting off and listening, you just say โ๐๐โ๐ฌ ๐๐ฅ๐ฐ๐๐ฒ๐ฌ ๐๐จ๐ง๐ ๐ญ๐ก๐ข๐ฌ, ๐๐ญ ๐ฅ๐๐๐ฌ๐ญ ๐ข๐ญโ๐ฌ ๐ ๐ข๐ฏ๐๐ง ๐ฆ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐จ๐จ๐ ๐ฌ๐๐๐ญ!โ
I show you that Iโm in pain by throwing my head in the air, but you just say itโs one of ๐ฆ๐ฒ ๐ฏ๐ข๐๐๐ฌ. Instead of helping me, you just buy ๐ฆ๐จ๐ซ๐ ๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐ญ๐ฌ so that I can no longer ๐ญ๐ก๐ซ๐จ๐ฐ ๐ฆ๐ฒ ๐ก๐๐๐ ๐ข๐ง ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐๐ข๐ซ.
I show you that Iโm in pain by bolting, but you just get scared and decide Iโm not the one for you. You sell me and I still remain as ๐๐ก๐ ๐๐จ๐ซ๐ฌ๐ ๐๐ก๐๐ญ ๐๐ฌ ๐๐ฎ๐ซ๐ญ๐ข๐ง๐ .
Itโs our responsibility as animal owners to do right by them, horses canโt speak, they communicate through their actions. So we need to listen!
9/10 times โnegative behaviourโ is caused my pain, the rest is learnt behaviour. Either way I always check for pain first.
๐๐ก๐ ๐๐จ๐ซ๐ฌ๐ ๐๐ก๐๐ญ ๐๐ฌ ๐๐ฎ๐ซ๐ญ๐ข๐ง๐ , deserves the world. The amount of tolerance, loyalty, patience and trust the hurting horse has, is something I can only dream of having.
