Oh, but didn't you know, JDKdressage, that horses are nothing more than overgrown children that must be treated with the utmost care for fear of damaging their delicate psyche? If you even *hint* at punishment you'll scar them for life and then you'll have to turn to PP to find the 'true' way of handling them. Between ground work with a stick and sessions with the animal communicator there's a chance your horse might forgive you for the injustices you've done to him in the past.

Equestrians do it with whips, spurs, and leather.
