A horse’s affective state—also understood as their underlying emotional outlook—shapes how they form attachments, learns, and copes with challenges.

Positive affective states promote optimism and curiosity, encouraging horses to try new solutions and engage with their environment.

Negative affective states can lead to pessimism and withdrawal, where a horse may stop seeking solutions to stress or discomfort.

To nurture positive affective states, it’s essential to meet a horse’s core needs:

- Access to high-fibre forage for at least 13 hours daily (no breaks longer than 4 hours)

- Regular exercise

- Social interaction with other horses

- Opportunities for recumbent (lying down) sleep

- Behavioural enrichment

Supporting these needs not only promotes emotional well-being and healthy attachments, but also enhances learning, welfare, and resilience in horses.
