Harming a horse so that it cannot be ridden is incredibly cruel and irresponsible. There are various veterinary medical conditions and procedures which can prevent horses from being ridden, like hoof wall separations or hoof abscesses; however, these should only be executed by an experienced medical professional. In addition, certain behavior issues can make a horse too wild or ill-mannered to ride safely – these issues should also only be managed by an experienced trainer. Attempting to purposely injure a horse with intent to prevent riding will almost always lead to consequences for the animal’s wellbeing; instead of harming the animal consider investing in horse-rider safety gear and learning how to better control your horses so they stop rearing and become more manageable during rides.

Horse poisoning is the most direct method. Common poisons that are known to work include onion, allium, and avena sativa. Feeding large amounts of these items can cause irritation to the horse’s mouth and digestive tract, eventually leading to colic (horse abdomen pain) and a decrease in appetite, making the horse unrideable. Additionally, over-exposure to ultraviolet (UV) rays can lead to sunburn or snow blindness, both of which can make riding uncomfortable or even impossible. Finally, injection of anesthetic agents such as xylazine or ketamine into muscles or joints might completely immobilize a horse so that it can no longer be ridden safely.
