Yes, just like any other animal with hair or fur, the dander from the skin, hair, and fur is the usual allergen. So, often if you have an allergy to dogs, you do to other animals, not always, but often. Sometimes, if they start young, they will ease up as you age, but many times if they are acquired at an older age, they are more severe. There can be other factors, everything that goes along with a horse and therefore, someone is exposed to when they are with a horse. Hay, dust, grasses, wheat, feed, shampoos, and anything else used on the horse to discourage flies, ticks, horse flies, and all the other insects drawn to horses. So,when someone is touching a horse they are touching everything the horse has been exposed to. The best thing to do is give up and see a Dr. who can test you for different Allergies, once you know what the monster is you can take the proper measures for your allergy.
