How to Stop a Horse From Biting & Ear Pinning
By Amy Hunter, eHow Contributor
Biting and ear pinning are methods that horses use to communicate with each other. When they bite or pin their ears back, they are saying "back off."

Patience and firmness are important when curing the horse that insists on pinning back its ears or biting while being worked with.
