Horse and Rider Can Take Damage As Soon As Player Mounts

Reopening - Horses that have recently taken some fall damage, will still receive further damage when they are mounted.

I am able to re-create every aspect of this bug and or related bugs in less than an hour of regular game play. Saddling from both a riding position as well as from standing on the side, mounting a saddled horse and even dismounting a saddled horse gives such a high probability for the bug I'll be waiting for the game to be fixed before I play again.

I regularly injure and/or kill myself and/or the horse by simply saddling them either method, mounting a saddled horse, and/or dismounting a horse.

Also, riding my horse over lava pits that I've covered or paths/bridges I've built can cause me and/or my horse to take damage.

This is not limited to horses that have recently taken fall damage. Often the damage to the horse when you click ride is sufficient to kill the horse. I have lost several good horses this way. I am riding a terrible horse until this is fixed!

Yes this bug effects donkeys, and mules as well. Also I take damage with the horse. Players and horses both take damage or death. While holding a sword or item in hand seems to kill the horse as well?

I lost 3 more horses to this over the weekend. I thought maybe you would be safe if you mounted the horse from behind, not so.
There is another bug where if you attempt to place a block in a square you are in, the block will disappear and not be placed. That happened to me with a minecart as well, which made me think ot might be related to the dead horse bug? It doesn't make sense that they're related but I will now only attempt to mount from far away--once I get more horses. I'm not willing to risk my surviving horses 😞
It really takrs all the fun out of being on a plains biome if you can't ride horses! Im focusing on farms and the nether for now.

I and other players on my realm have also been experiencing this bug since the 1.1 update. Even trying to mount with an empty hand or something like a saddle or carrot that should take several hits to kill a horse sometimes causes instant death. The risk of killing animals simply by trying to mount them makes horses, donkeys and mules practically unusable which makes travel very slow if we are limited to our sprinting speed.
