Horse Communication
Sound Communication
Whinny: A rather loud, bugling and free sounding call that is one of the most loved sounds horses make.
Translations- Hi, whos that? Hey! Im over here!
Neigh: A sound that is almost like a whinny, just a little bit deeper.
Translations- Hello, can you see me? I can see you!
Nicker: The best and most welcoming horse sound in the world. The nicker is a low, rumbling sound that is made in the horses throat. You might hear this sound when a horse greets another horse or you! – or at feeding time.
Translations- Hello, I missed you! Mmm, whats that? It sure smells great! Welcome back, Im glad to see you!
Snort: A sound that horses make by pushing all the air in their lungs out hard through their nostrils. It sounds quite a lot like the snort you make when you are objecting to something except its a lot louder and more fluttery.
Translations- Oh, watch out! Whats that? I dont like it! Its scary! Whos that guy? He looks suspicious!
Blow: A big exhale, that sounds like your sigh, just louder and a lot deeper.
Translations- Is there anything new going on? Not much is happening. Things aren't so bad.
Squeal: A high-pitched, ear-piercing scream that is so loud that it can be heard from hundreds of meters away.
Translations– Hey! Stop it! Cut it out! Ouch, that hurt me! Im warning you, if you dont stop that then Im going to really get mad!
Grunts and groans: These sounds are all kind of the same. Grunts and groans are often made if the horse is exercising, being rubbed or massaged.
Translations- Ugg, this is pushing my fitness. Oh, that feels nice! Hmm, thats good.
Sighs and sniffs: A horses sigh sounds just like yours only its much louder. A horses sniff sounds like the sound you make when you
blow your air out of your nostrils.
Translations- Uh, Im bored. Mmm, Im rather tired. Time to hit the sack. Lifes not that bad.
Roar: This sound is a mix between a neigh, whinny and a squeal. It has the deep, hoarse sound of a neigh, the loud, imposing sound of the whinny and the enraged scream of the squeal. Normally you would only hear this sound coming from a furious stallion.
Translations– Get out of here right now! You are trespassing on my territory! I will attack you if you dont get lost immediately!
Ear Communication
Flat back ears: When you notice a horses ears starting to pin back against its head, moving towards the beginning of its neck, get ready for anything!
If youre riding a horse and its ears are back slightly then its just listening to your voice, but if its ears are pinned back against it skull then it is getting very angry.
Translations- Ooh, Im getting mad! Youre making me angry! If you dont stop what youre doing I will make you wish you had!
Pricked forward, stiff ears: Ears that are pointed forward and are being held stiffly in place mean that the horse is alert.
Translations- Hey, whats that? Whats that noise? Thats an unusual sound!
Relaxed, loosely forward ears: When a horses ears are like this they look just like the pricked forward, stiff ears except they don't have that alert stiffness.
Translations- What a lovely day! Things are really nice out here, I really like this place.
Uneven ears (One pointing to the front and one pointing to the back): When a horses ears are like that they are just plodding along.
Translations- (Sigh). There's nothing going on here. Isn't there any action around this place?
Stiff, twitching ears: If a horses ear looks like they do when theyre pricked forwards and stiff except that they are twitch be very careful! You must watch out when youre riding a horse and he/she does this. It could mean that its getting ready to bolt.
Translation- (Shake). What's that?! I'm getting anxious! If something scars me now I'm ready to run for the hills!
Airplane ears: When a horses ears are hanging on either side of its head. This means that its bored or tired.
Translations- (Yawn). Im so tired! Nothing ever happens round here. Boring. Bored.
Droopy ears: When a horses ears sag down a droop to its sides it means its tired and ready to get to bed.
Translations- Mmm . . . Im awfully tired. I could really do with some warm bran mash and a nice loose box. Time to bed down for the night.
Tail Communication
Tail switches hard and fast: When you see a horse doing this then you know you've got a very, very, VERY angry equine on your hands. Don't go anywhere near a horse in this state. Ill strike out and hurt you before you can do anything!
Translations- I have so had it! I will just attack anyone who dares to go near me! Im so mad now I think Im gonna explode!
Tail held high: When a horses tail is held up high, flying in the air like a big banner then its say it is proud and high spirited!
Translations- I am horse and Im proud of it! Look at me! Im so stunning! I am the greatest! I am the best!
Clamped-down tail: If a horses tail is like this it means it is scared.
Translations- Im so scared! Please cant someone help me! Whats going to happen to me?!
Tail swatting against flanks: When a horse does this its just getting rid of some annoying thing that decided to land on or touch it.
Translations- Ouch! Oh, good! Got that silly fly!
