This Horse’s Sneaky Way Of Getting Cuddles Will Melt Your Heart.

Humans have many ways of telling each other how much we mean to one another. We have hundreds, even thousands of ways of expressing thanks and love.

And yet these sentiments aren’t necessarily easy to communicate or even understood between humans and animals. However, when feelings of affection and gratitude from animals are finally understood, it can make for a surprisingly touching moment.

All the more awesome when it winds up on camera!

Phoenix looks at the camera and then tries again, this time nudging her close to him. It was at that point that she finally understood, and gives the gentle horse a hug.
