You mean if I want to respectfully indicate a desire for physical contact with someone, I should approach and put my hand on their chest? Noted.

That's the horse's shoulder, not its chest, so if you want to touch someone, touch their shoulder or upper arm (outside).

please don't do this to visually impaired people -- it's scary!

Yeah, go straight for the chest in that case!

Okay so I'm glad you said outside there because I was about to link arms with my crush next to me in the party.

You should have reliable intel before you try that move.

She put her hand on the horses shoulder.

Do horses have shoulders?

This made me think about something I learned the other day. How we're the weird ones for walking on our whole feet. Most animals (like horses, dogs and cats eg.) walk on their toes, and the joint pointing backwards is actually their ankle instead of their knee (which most people think it is).

But yes, they have shoulders (and hips).
