Keep in mind that a riding crop is a type of whip that is used to correct faults of your horses’ movement and posture. This whip should never be used with excessive force that might hurt your horse. The riding crop has a handle that is made with several layers of fabric. At the other end, is a pommel that is covered in different materials such as leather, fabric, or even metal.

  • The Dressage Whip
    • This type of whip is made especially for dressage competition use. It’s longer than the riding crop whip, mainly about 45", and has a short lash in its end. It is designed for the rider to tap the horse on its back without taking the rider's hands off the reins during the competition. Using it correctly gives a positive response.

As dangerous as it sounds, it doesn’t hurt your horse when you whip it using such.
