This is super helpful, Iâm a smaller equine, and sometimes I ride the taller horses at the barn and I canât always reach them or sometimes the horses are not wanting to take the bit
@euejebe thats not what that means⊠many horses absolutely love to ride and they are very social creatures. Maybe try to do some research before mindlessly commentingâŠ
They donât want to take the bit because it hurts their mouths. Bits cause irreparable damage to their mouths and they will suffer from massive mouth sores and mouth ulcers. Please donât use a bit on your horses. They look to you for love and companionship, so when you stick a huge hunk of metal in their mouth and then pull on it, youâre sending the message that you donât care about their well being, and theyâre not dumb animals. Show them the love and patience they show you. They can be trained just as easy without a bit. It will teach them to have even more trust in you.
@@Cheese.wizardwhile I agree that horses can be ridden and trained without a bit, it doesnât cause pain to the horse if used properly. A bit is designed to be mildly uncomfortable when pulled on, just like squeezing a horse with your legs or using a crop should be. Also, some horses need a bit to learn, maybe because they were started with training with a bit and arenât adjusting well to not having one, or because they are a more stubborn horse and need that extra bit of negative reinforcement.
I tend to be all thumbs, so I'd have a hard time not dropping the treat! But after you do this a time or two, the horse will let you put the bit in, and you can give the treat afterwards. Either way, great idea!
This is actually perfect I was just freaking out about going to the stables bc I can do everything but putting a bridal on I struggle so much and I can do it it's just the horse I ride swings her head round and round and round and doesn't take the bit and it's so embarrassing asking for help sometimes and I'm tiny aswell so that doesn't help lol but Thank You for this video
Thanks for the tip I always have trouble bridling the tall horses lol since Iâm short and have a nice day to and Iâll have to try this since Iâm going to the barn today
omg this worked! i ride a 16.2 and he used to stick his head up and back up when i tried to grab his nose and now when he sees me pull out the bridle he puts his head down to me and opens his mouth even without a treat now! thank you
I wish I'd known this trick when i rescued my first horse! Now that I've got a 2 year old I'm getting ready for next spring, I'll do this! I was planning on putting molasses on the bit, but this sounds less... sticky. đ
Hopefully you donât use a bit like this piece of shit. Bits are terrible for horsesâ mouths. A true trainer doesnât need to use a bit. Itâs a crutch for weak trainers.
This is really good when working with younger horses!! I use apple wafers or actual apple/carrot slices! Iâm not one of those equine who has a fit about their horse eating with a bridle on so I find this a really good trick!
Some horses don't like bitless or can't be ridden bitless, whether that's because they're not fully trained or because they're being ridden by little kids.
@@ashasownadventureuhhh I start horses bitless most horses are started bitless and most horse do like bitless it shows the trust and bond with ur horse bits donât give you more control all the time
@@Justbad_edits87 most do, some don't. Bitless can also hurt the horse, hackamores can literally break a horse's nose. There's also a horse at my barn who still avoids the bridle even though she's bitless. It doesn't solve all problems.
You should never use a bit on a horse. Itâs extremely cruel and destroys their mouths. A true horse trainer doesnât need a crutch like a bit. This is just lazy and mean.
bitlesses are better for some horses IF probably used it wonât break there nose and IF probably placed wonât break there nose. That owner must have done something very very stupid. How do you know the nose broke? And also the same goes for bits IF used properly itâs okay but many many people donât know how to use bits. My barn we start lesson kids with bitless bridles cause there learning pressure on there face and using resin for balance. So bitless bridles are good if used probably and PLACED in the right spot and a bitless doesnât belong way down on there nose they belong higher up sitting on the bone not soft tissue. Bits can be good but I notice most horses donât like letâs say my friends horse doesnât like backing up with a bit in his mouth but likes backing up with a hackamore. So it really matters how you place it and use it same goes for Spurs actually but Iâm not explaining that today.

Hi Fallon, This is a great question. I know some people are concerned about this. Thought the years I have given many horse a small treat as a reward during riding. None of the horses I have worked with have had a problem:)
thid accualy made e a little sad bc there was a horse that was exactly like that but a lil taller in my barn and i lovef riding him and i wanted to buy him but my parents did not lt me so it got sld to someone in a place that is 4 hours away
Itâs a great idea but youâre not supposed to feed horses before riding while itâs okay for one treat to many isnt good (no hate just spreading awareness)
Hi :) I agree you should not feed your horse a substantial amount of grain before doing active work under saddle with them, however I have given my horses a few treats before work and during work upon occasion for the past 15 years. I have never had or witnessed any adverse effects.
My horse was very hard to put the bridle on so I started to put Honey on the bridle it works after 1 moth he started to want to put his bridle. (It was my only and my first)
I think that next time you are bridling your horse, you should try it without the treat. If the horse doesn't want to take the bits, press a little on your horses cheeks and it should help. Then give the treat to the horse. đ
I wouldnt nesseraly do that as it can teach the horse bad manners in the sense of always expecting a treat. I would rather give the treat after to reward good behavior. Now this is just my opinion

I've been doing this for years. When you're the height of a fifth grader and have a 17hh horse, you have no choice. đ
I tried this with my horse and she was to smart she would not even lick the treat lol
Is no one gonna talk about how BEAUTIFUL her horse is ???!!!
Your horse is adorable thanks for the tip!!â€
I tend to be all thumbs, so I'd have a hard time not dropping the treat! But after you do this a time or two, the horse will let you put the bit in, and you can give the treat afterwards. Either way, great idea!
Personally I always vote for bridle then treat rather than pairing.
Wow this is so helpful, just got my first horse and itâs super difficult to get her bridle on.
Was not ready for your profile pic lmao
Thank you for showing this def trying next time I go to the barn!
Goooorgeous horse!

I do it every time i ride my horse, and now she wants to take the bit because she knows she gets a treat after taking it
I just had to pause this and look at your horses face, so beautiful
Ty I have been struggling for so long with my new young horse on bridling. Have done the grain in the bucket trick but this one is better
Omg thatâs so smart!
Love your horse â€
You have no idea how much that helped me, my horse is incredibly _stubborn_ when it comes to putting his bridle on
Thanks for the tip I always have trouble bridling the tall horses lol since Iâm short and have a nice day to and Iâll have to try this since Iâm going to the barn today
Omg your a life saver!
Beautiful horse
Good job buddy â€
Cool
omg this worked! i ride a 16.2 and he used to stick his head up and back up when i tried to grab his nose and now when he sees me pull out the bridle he puts his head down to me and opens his mouth even without a treat now! thank you

Hell yeah
Oh my gosh i will try that because my horse keeps putting her head up i think she will be good with treats she loves them
We had a mare that had the same pattern. She was red and white so from a little distance she looked pink.
that's a flea bitten grey-
This isn't a pattern this is just a grey horse

@@delaneyyy813 thank you
my horse went ballistic
Thank you! My horse Moe likes to put his head up sometimes so I canât get the bridle on lol
â€
This is a great short-term hack, but I'm more about actually training the horse to put his nose into the bridal by themselves. It can be done with consistency!
Or just use a bit less bridle will make it much more comfortable for them
Exactly!! Bits are cruel and should never be used in horses. If a trainer is using a bit theyâre not a true horse trainer.
Quick question? I was taught growing up that you shouldnât let your horse at anything with the bit inâŠ
Hi Fallon,
This is a great question. I know some people are concerned about this. Thought the years I have given many horse a small treat as a reward during riding. None of the horses I have worked with have had a problem:)
My horse is like 1h from being a pony so I donât use this but it will be helpful in the future and your horse is beautiful I love flee bitten horses
i might actually try that. my horse locks her jaw shut and sticks her head in the air. hopefully this helps!
did it work?
It does help but it increases the risk of the horse chocking on the bit
I love your horse what coat pattern does it have?
000ooooohh thank you
thid accualy made e a little sad bc there was a horse that was exactly like that but a lil taller in my barn and i lovef riding him and i wanted to buy him but my parents did not lt me so it got sld to someone in a place that is 4 hours away
Give me your horseeeeee đđđđ

Yes I do aswell see no problem with one or two treats before work but a full feed isnât good
Ok for one treat... She's using one treat. What's to criticize?
My horse was very hard to put the bridle on so I started to put Honey on the bridle it works after 1 moth he started to want to put his bridle.
(It was my only and my first)
This is rly helpful thx! But there is one horse who pits her nose all the way to the ceiling đ
This video may be of help czcams.com/video/N857D0psjW8/video.html
I wish I new this ages ago
ty im like not that tall and camilla my pony keeps putting her head up when i try to take it off and on! tysm tho this is working sometimes!
Youre horse is beautiful, is it a fleabitten coat
Yep :)
The treats will be gone in no time I love riding me horsesđ
my horse take it by her self đ
I do this with hay or grass and it worked for about a week and then he started to learn how to take the treat without bridling. Any tips???
I think that next time you are bridling your horse, you should try it without the treat.
If the horse doesn't want to take the bits, press a little on your horses cheeks and it should help.
Then give the treat to the horse. đ
no bits for me
Good for you!! Bits are cruel and they cause irreparable damage to the horseâs mouth.
I don't have a problem putting it in the mouth just putting it over the ears!!!
Isn't the bit on the wrong way???
The fact that my horse does not like treats âčïž
Good way to form trust issues
How about just donât use a bit. Wow!
Just be careful that they don't get pushy and can do it with the treat
I have a mexican one
They can't swallow with a bit in
But when you have the bridel on your horse cant eat its very dangerous for the horse
*Laughs in hackamore user*
Unsolicited advice here! Don't forget to check your horses teeth with your vetđ. Mouth pain sucks
Or we can use a bitelesse bridle
No treat, no finger!!!! đą
Or just use a bitless bridle!!!!
DONT DO TREATS ANS BITS
Donât do bits at all.
