Photo Challenge: 8 Non-Equine Besties

Humans love their companion animals … and so do our horses!

While horses clearly enjoy the company of other horses best, there are also plenty of horses who have formed friendship bonds with animals outside of their species. Either that, or you guys are really good at getting everyone to look cute for a photograph.

Either way, enjoy these 8 horse and animal friendships!
