Their keen senses allow them to feel out situations from a far. Horses are noble and honest in their communication and unlike dogs who are loyal to their core, horses seek out companionship and leadership. Horses offer people a chance to learn and trust through interaction. Add in a group dynamic of teamwork, cohesion and peer support, it can be beneficial to mind body and soul. Learning to work with and ride such a powerful animal is an extremely rewarding experience.
