Make she wears synthetic leather? Current ones (and allready in 2013), were quite like the reall thing...
Otherwise it's a bit of a plothole...
Again though, she may feel a separation between Equestrian intelligent life forms (which USUALLY, except cases like Spike, translate into humans when coming through the portal), and Earth/human world animals...
[EDIT]
Also, Even in Equestria, there farm animals, like cows, of (seemingly), lesser intellect.
Still, I agree this kinda is odd...
