Two days ago we published an article about a dog thinking he was a horse because of some of the manners his owner spotted for all of us. What is happening in the video below is actually the opposite. The horse is doing a typical dog move that everyone that has been in contact with dogs will understand.
It seems like the horse has an itch on his ear, and he is using his foot to get rid of the disturbing feeling, just like a dog usually does. People were very surprised because they never saw anything like this before, but the itch was disturbing so he had to find a way how to get rid of it.
However, as a reminder, this is not the only time a horse has shown dogs’ behavior. There have been multiple cases of horses rolling around on the ground doing one of the things dogs enjoy doing the most. Perhaps it seems very entertaining to them.
It is really interesting how different species who live together influence each other’s behavior as well. What about your horse or other pets? Have they shown behaviors typical for other species? We would like to hear it from you.
