“How Can I Tell if it’s Normal or Abnormal Behaviour?”

In this episode, we take a closer look at how to recognise what’s normal horse behaviour and what may be a sign that something is off.We talk about how horses communicate stress, comfort, curiosity, pain, and emotional wellbeing and why context is everything. From subtle posture changes to bigger behavioural patterns, we explore how to observe horses with curiosity rather than judgement.Understanding what is “normal” for an individual horse is key to good welfare, effective training, and strong relationship-building. This episode is all about tuning into the horse in front of us, listening to what they’re expressing, and responding in a way that supports them.Voice note your questions on WhatsApp to +353 85 143 8688 to have your questions answered on the Podcast.
