What is my horse thinking?

In understanding facial expressions and behaviour, riders and horses often fail to see eye to eye, which can negatively impact the harmony in the human-animal relationship. What do pricked ears, a high head carriage or a raised tail mean? And why does the horse not understand even seemingly simple signals? This extensively illustrated photo guide uses short, concise texts to explain how horses communicate with each other and with humans. It provides assistance in interpreting even the finest signals and shows how horse owners can react correctly to their horse's messages.
