Yes, whipping a horse can cause physical pain and distress. Horses have sensitive skin and muscle tissue, so strikes from a whip can lead to injuries and emotional trauma. Additionally, using a whip as a means of punishment or coercion can damage the trust between the horse and handler, leading to behavioral issues. Ethical training methods prioritize the horse's well-being and rely on positive reinforcement rather than punitive measures.
