Quite by chance I found Poppy has a ticklish spot under her tummy that quite literaly makes her go week at the knees! She stops eating, her head wobbles from side to side and her top lip curls up and she almost goes into a trance! Power!! At last I can get her to stand still whilst I groom her whilst she is tied up!!
 
Charlie loves having his topline rubbed to the point he almost bows and turns his head right round so all you can see is his top lip curling in ectasy! He also loves having his dock rubbed and tail combed. Never had such a tactile horse!
 
Harry loves his lip, behind his ears, along his topline, his bum and his tummy lol. Found most of these by chance and his tummy gives the biggest reaction, with his lip going crazy and he tries to curve round and groom you back lol!
 
Our pony loves the underneath of his tail tickled. Right at the top. He hooks it to the side so we get just the spot. His hind end shakes and he curls his lips.
Think he possibly enjoys it a bit too much :)
Little perv.
 
Yes lol Cochise has a "buck button" he so ticklish on his bum, if u press on it when your riding him he pops a little buck! if you stroke it gently he pulls funny faces :p
 
Ron doesn't really, but he'll look moderately pleased if you scratch just in front of his withers.

Tom is itchy everywhere!! He likes you to scratch any or preferably all of the following...
ears
poll
neck
withers
armpit
belly
between his back legs :eek: (dirty old man!)
hocks
heels
under his dock
his chest

he has no skin conditions or anything, he's just an itchy, attention seeking little terror. :D

All mine have been like this at this time of year.

It's like when you have an itch and can't scratch it and then someone does it for you:D:D:D :DAbsolute heaven:p:D:D
 
Harvey - withers (hes a traditional man)

Simon - anywhere and everywhere but especially the inside of the top of his back legs (another dirty old man)

Roscoe - again anywhere and everywhere but especially on his chest in between both front legs - he goes crazy for it!
 
My old share pony Mandy had two:

Right where here chin groove was - If you tickled it, her bottom lip would wiggle like mad!
She also LOVED being stroked right down her face, ears to muzzle, and would quite happily nod off as long as you continued to do so :D

Now, Evil Bonnie Coblet... I think she likes her chin tickled, but she does a damn good job of hiding it if she does!
 
Haha thelwell_girl i think all cobs called bonnie must be the same.. ours likes it if you scratch her just infront of her shoulder, but she pretends she doesnt :P

Harvey likes his dock, withers, neck, shoulders, chest, armpits, bumcheeks.... you name it!

Not found Winnies yet but Otti is pretty much the same as Harvey!
