How to use it
Reward your horse the way horses do
A pat on the neck is a human gesture. A scratch on the withers is the one horses share in the field.
Clip it on
The Ekilike stays on your belt or saddle pad thanks to the retractable clip. It pulls out and retracts on its own.
Scratch the withers
Right after a well-done exercise, a few seconds of scratching with the curved teeth, in the saddle or on the ground.
Watch
The lip stretches, the head drops, the breathing relaxes: your horse got the message.

What research says
Based on the science of allogrooming
Ekilike builds on equine behaviour research. It soothes and builds a bond, alongside treats.
Scratch rather than pat
In a study of 18 horses, scratching the withers led to clearly more relaxation behaviours than patting the neck.
Thorbergson et al., Journal of Applied Animal Welfare Science, 2016 ↗A gesture that means something to him
Allogrooming is the social gesture horses naturally share in the field. Ekilike lets you recreate it with curved teeth, without hurting your fingers.
