Horses are big, strong and dumb. You can teach them useful tricks, and I taught my horses to stretch out, making it easier to mount, and to always turn to face me when I entered their stalls.

I would allow want them to use their teeth on a person because of the risks. I've had "lippy" horses, and its cute when they give you licks and kisses, but it just takes one unexpected swing of their head and they can knock you down or send a little kid flying. I gave them horse toys to play with that they could mouth and carry around and they act like 1,200 lb toddlers, some like a certain texture or taste, others like toys that make noise or ones that can move, but no hoodies.
