OBS

The schooling and training of a horse for jumping and such disciplines may be considered the same thing. For endurance performances however, the term training appears to be more adequate. Dressage stands especially for training in responsiveness, deportment and skills.

PHR

School/train a horse.

OBS

Une fois que le cheval est dressé ou entraîné à se comporter de la façon qu'on attend de lui, ou à exécuter des mouvements particuliers, il pourra encore faire l'objet d'un autre genre d'entraînement. On dit plutôt, par exemple, qu'on entraîne un cheval, pour qu'il acquière la résistance nécessaire, à la course d'endurance.

PHR

Dresser/entraîner un cheval.
