most likely cause is that they are protecting their space. They need to know this is not acceptable before they get into the habit of doing it.

Some of the horses on our yard do this Lucy when other horses are brought in/out past them to their own boxes. I just tend to square up to them and growl if they do and they usually retreat behind their doors! I don't think it's uncommon, one horse on our yard nods its head like mad every time someone, human or equine, walks by!!
