I’ve written before about how to massage your horse. I’m a big fan of Jim Masterson’s DVD. But I’ve never before seen a video of a horse massaging a human. I need to teach my boy how to do this!

Oh yeah! I’ve read that horses will groom you back if they like what you’re doing or just like you. Yay social animals!
I don’t think that anyone is going to be laughing when he decides to take a bite.
That was one of my favorite parts of being an equine massage therapist. They give back what they get. Never thought to film it though!
My horse does this, and he will mimick whatever stroke I am doing with him – so if I am using my nails, he will (try) to use his teeth to scrape, or if I make a fist and rub in a circular pattern, he tenses his nose and does the same. Its so sweet.
