For an animal as large as a horse, and for the amount of current that an electric fence carries I cannot see it really doing anything more than causing some discomfort. But smaller animals I can see potentially being hurt.
Barbed wire however will hurt anything that comes up against it. |

That's a good point SaddleSore. I don't know specifically how the current in an electric fence differs for a horse and for a smaller animal, say a dog. It seems like a somewhat "mean" alternative for a dog, but if that same amount is applied to a horse I can see it being less serious. Does that make it any less effective though?
