    Really agree!! Be the change. How horses are treated in racing as well as other equestrian sports often results from horses being viewed as commodities. I also agree that horses should generally not be under saddle before the age of 6. If horses have an approximate understanding of their environment similar to that of a two or three year old human, using bullying, whipping, spurring etc to make them perform just can’t be the right approach.

    I think a good enough rider, and a well trained enough horse, should be able to perform at a high level with minimal tack

    Not every horse is afraid of a whip, because as a normal person you know that a whip is only an extension of the arm. And many riders use it when they do groundwork, working on the hand and lunging and some for riding. But the whip don't may touch the horse.
    And of course not like Charlotte Dujardin. FEI should ban her forever. And people like edward Gal and Carl hester should be investigate.
    I think this sort of abuse is more often by top riiders, who don't have respect for horses, because they have to win. Look: already two riders eliminated for blood in the olympics. And remember in Tokyo where a rider was hitting her horse.
    Spurs: there are spurs even round so they don't hurt the horse, but i think it should be forbidden.
    There are so many ways to horseabuse, for example i saw 10 horses who had almost no hay and they had to walk on glas.😢

      Yes indeed, the bad examples and black sheep increasingly make it more difficult but it's important to have these conversations. I'm all for being able to discuss this so everyone can make a well thought choice whatever that means for you 💖

    spurs are an extension of the leg used by experienced riders to further ask for faster or even slower movement in horses, it has been proven that they do not hurt horses unless used incorrectly, they can help if your horse is having trouble responding to cues or being stubborn or they can help train your horse to respond to leg cues better

      @@ritanegra3158 always is a big overstatement, if you dont know how to use spurs you shouldnt be using them, it doesnt torture the horse to have more direct leg pressure, english stub spurs barely do anything but pinpoint pressure and western rowls help to make your cues smoother which is why a lot of horses are trained to slow down and collect with a quick roll up of the spur

      according to the south dakota state university, spurs are not harmful to the horse if used by experienced riders, it only hurts horses if used by inexperienced incorrect riders
