They know. More than you can imagine. Thus why I plan to spend tomorrow night with my big yellow boy. If you can, get a copy of the Tao of Equus. Amazing stuff, whether you're a horse person or not.

Can you volunteer at a local therapeutic horse center? Might be good for them and you. I don't know how people function without a horse. I saved my first horse, and later he did the same for me during a rough teenage career.

Dogs are great, but horses have a different brand of wisdom.
