Horses specifically? Interesting. Normally when people ask this question their "test case" is cats or dogs.

Just trying to be different, but the same point stands.

I don’t believe in an afterlife or the concept of souls. If we are talking about consciousness then yes horses clearly are conscious beings.

Lean yes, but what gives me pause is when you say "nonhuman animals have souls/can experience an afterlife" it seems to have no logical endpoint?  It gets absurd quickly.  Do bacteria have souls?  Insects?

This is an important question, because many horses died in medieval battles and we want to know if they could go the heaven with their knights.

My vision of Heaven is an intellectual version of a dude ranch... complete with nature hikes, swimming, golf, tennis, and horseback riding as complements to the cultural life. Dogs and horses would be there. Cats? I'm not so sure.

Horses have sensible souls.  That's doesn't say much in terms of heaven or hell though.
