Favourite thing about your horse?

Gosh there is so much about him I love it's so hard to pick one thing!
His soft scented muzzle
His kind honest nature, how a horse with a sad past could become such a loving trusting lad.
How he tries his heart out for me.
How he understands me, when I was so ill with depression he actually seemed to know and understand and acknowledge in his own way.
My equine soulmate and best friend.
 
The way she calls to me as soon as she hears me at the yard-regardless of if she can see me or if she is in her further field. If she can see me she stands watching me until I go see her :) plus her super cute 'special spots' where if I scratch her she turns into a puppy with a Shakey leg cause she likes it so much-puts her into a trance!
 
His sense of humour. Not an anthropomorphism, he really does have a sense of humour. And he knows it. You should have seen him yesterday when I was trying to rake his corral. But he's also very much 'mine'. He's broken, not right in the head at the moment due to having developed claustrophobia, but he will call to me, supervise me and hug me when he needs to. He is one of those horses that will push his head against your chest and breathe you in. He'll lift his head up so his eyes are level with yours and look right into your soul. He'll mesmerise you and when he pulls away you feel he has taken a little bit of you away with him. He's going on holiday, away from his scary stable, for a long while tomorrow and I am going to miss him every moment he's not here. Fortunately he's going somewhere very special and I shall be down to see him as often as I can.
 
Mine - because he is always on my side and tries to please me in everything.

He also forgives me, especially when jumping which I am very nervous at - he will always have a go however little support I give him and has got us both out of trouble of numerous occasions….
