As the saying goes: You cant teach an old Dogg new tricks.

West Coast music legend Snoop Dogg has mastered his craft as a rapper and frequent actor, but he refuses to work with a particular kind of animal. The Doggystyle emcee came clean on Wednesdays episode of his GGN podcast telling guest Tiffany Haddish hes scared of horses .

Im scared of horses to this day, Tiff, he told Haddish , whod just described her own girlhood dreams of one day raising the animals. I dont know why, Im just fucking scared of them. Im so serious. You aint never seen me in a scene with a horse.

Ive been in a scene with ostriches, iguanas, all kinds of shit ... Aint never been in a scene with a horse, he went on. Like, get that motherfucker away from me.

Surprisingly, Snoop said that his wife, Shante Broadus , once owned a horse for three years and regularly rode it for her peace of mind. Snoop told Haddish that he refused to interact with the animal due to his equinophobia .

Maybe in your past life you fell off a horse, Haddish suggested.

The rapper quipped he was probably the Headless Horseman instead, referring to a folkloric figure popularized by Washington Irvings 1820 short story The Legend of Sleepy Hollow .

Snoop, whose real name is Calvin Broadus, doesnt seem to mind most other animals even the ones that are generally unwelcome.

In my apartment I had a roach that we couldnt kill, he told the famed entertainment journalist Nardwuar in July. We tried to kill the motherfucker when we first moved in and he wouldnt die, so we called him The Gooch. And he just kept getting bigger and bigger ... We used to leave food out for him.
