Is it possible to have an anaphylactic reaction to horses and react just by being around them?

Yes: Yes, it is possible to have a severe allergic reaction to horses just "by being around them." an anaphylactic reaction would be very unlikely, however. More likely symptoms might include runny nose, nasal congestion, sneeze and pruritus (itching of the eyes/nose).
