Horses and humans interact in a wide variety of sport competitions and
non-competitive recreational pursuits, as well as in working activities
such as police work, agriculture, entertainment, and therapy. Horses were
historically used in warfare, from which a wide variety of riding and
driving techniques developed, using many different styles of equipment and
methods of control. Humans provide domesticated horses with food, water,
and shelter, as well as attention from specialists such as veterinarians
and farriers
