Animals create special relationships with humans, and this is especially true with horses. The nonverbal communication between a human and horse strengthens the emotional bond that is shared. Therefore, words aren’t needed for human and horse to be perfectly in tune with each other's emotions. The relationship between horse and human creates love and understanding that is often indescribable.
