Hey, recently, have you seen any videos that just warm your heart yet? Well, today I got one. Let me tell you about Shiner, a 4-year-old Chestnut gelding who did something truly heart-melting for his owner during a tough time—a painful divorce. This horse, by comforting his owner in the sweetest way, showed the incredible connection between animals and humans.
So here is the context: That day, Shania, a horse owner, was going through the challenges of moving out on the day of her divorce. Yet she still set up the camera as usual to capture moments with her horses and pretended nothing happened.
Surprisingly, in a vulnerable moment, Shiner, the intuitive horse, could sense Shania's hidden emotions. And what he did next actually melted everyone’s hearts. Shiner was nudging and getting his owner closer, creating a safe space for her to express her feelings. And at that touching moment, Shania broke down in tears because she couldn’t hold them back any longer.
“I just happened to be hiding from my emotions and my horse Shiner, felt that. He felt my pain and just pulled me into his chest to let me cry it out and reassured me with his nudges.” shared Shania.
Especially, until now, horses are always known for being pretty sensitive to human emotions, and Shiner takes it to the next level. His actions show a deep understanding of Shania's pain, and he could be just like a human friend who can offer comfort with every gentle touch. It's like he's saying, "I'm here for you."
And you know what's even more touching? The video was abundant with people who were moved by Shiner's sensitivity and the care he showed his owner.
