This could mean many things. It could mean the horse feels bad, or is in a bad mood, or it could be getting ready to 'herd' you or even attack.

Why can't a low - backed horse rack?
I am sure it is possible for a low-backed horse to rack, however, the Rack requires a high head set and therefore, a dished in back and that puts alot of pressure on the horse, especially on its back. Since a low-backed horse already has a messed-up back, it puts even more strain on the horse, and can lead to a horse with no chance of ever being ridden again.

Can a low backed horse rack?
Answer no Answer They probably could, but it would put a lot of strain on the horse. The rack requires a high head set with a back arched towards the ground. The rack on its own put a lot of strain on a horse all its own. When a horse already has damaged back muscles the rack could injure the horse more and make it un-ridable.
What motions do horses ears make and why?
Horses have extremely mobile ears - they can move in almost any direction. Horses in the wild use their ears to help detect predators, and even though domestic horses don't need to do that, they still use their ears to tune into the environment around them, so generally, wherever their ears are pointed, that's what they're paying attention to - so if they're keeping an ear on you, that's a sign that they're paying attention to what you're doing! In addition, horses use their ears to express feelings. A happy, alert horse will have his ears pointed forward. An upset horse will have them about halfway back, and a frightened or angry horse will pin them back so they're almost flat against his head.

Why do English horseback riders want their horses head higher?
The theory behind the higher head carriage for hunt seat riding is if your going over fences and hedges (example:fox hunting) you want your horse's head up and paying attention. I don't want to take my horse over a fence, even a low one, if his head is not up and his eyes not forward. It is dangerous for horse and rider both. The lower head carriage is the product of the modern show ring style. Too low is not good for anyone.

Can you touch a horses muzzle?
You can, if you be careful not to bring your hand too low down to the nose. The nose is not a place where you should pet a horse because they can and will bite you. The best place to pet a horse is on the forehead or neck. If a horse is particularly head-shy (or not willing to let you pet him anywhere on his head), giving him a scratch or rub on the neck is the best way to make friends with a horse.
