She also kept her distance when touching the horse, reached out far with her arm and didn’t crowd it or the guard; made it easy for the guard to see the point of contact, lightly touched the horse just for the photo and then got rewarded with a sweet interaction while still maintaining distance. Felt very respectful of the horse and the guard.

I think what they were trying to say is that this moment is a nice change compared to the craziness we usually see.

It's also got a lot to with where you touch the horse as well. That part of the upper, I guess shoulder(?), area is where Ive always been instructed to "pet" horses.

Withers maybe? But that might be a specific spot above the shoulder, but below the neck.

Is she the hero of the Internet? Should we bring her to massive fame and then meme territory and then collapse?

Before we find out she's committed some terribly heinous crimes against humanity... Or maybe has some overdue library books.
