I have been riding for just about 2 years and I really struggle with putting on the the bridle but this really helped me understand more thank you!

[@CarmellaAbel]

Glad I could help!

[@narahatake5352]

[@Liviousa]

[@Chloestafford1313]

this was really helpful because im really short and when i tack up our schoolies at my barn most of them throw their heads up, and even though in this video your horse didnt throw their head up it was still really helpful!! keep it up xx

[@dusiaalazzeh7318]

Thanks a lot!!! I was struggling putting the bridle and now you saved my life!!!!

[@katetaylor7676]

I had an adult camp today at my Riding stables, and I did have to ask for help to tack up my horse, wish I had seen this video beforehand as it’s very informative!!!

[@grimeyIRF]

I also want to say your videos are great. My horses nuzzle my lead hand with every successful exercise

[@OliveChaylt]

[@KarenJarrett-lw2xy]

I have my own horse and it’s hard to understand putting tack on but this really helped me!

[@HicksteadStables]

Incredible this helped a LOT because when I was trying to put a bit on my sisters horse mona she put her head up and next time I’m gonna try this method thank you so much for posting this. 😊👏

[@hayleycummins5312]

[@inkedcowgirl5615]

Very informative, thank you.

[@officialjbbeverley]

Great video, and great channel!

[@GinInJuc]

Thank you so much, this really helped me because i ride lesson horses and i struggle with the bridle. And they throw their head up a lot. Have a good day/night!

[@Layla_ann25]

This helped so much thank you I have riding later and I struggle with this

[@Ada_Lou]

I’ve been riding western for about 3 years and I just started to want to do English but I thought that it would be way harder to put the bridal on😅 but thank you this was really helpful

[@saltwaterpurl]

Super helpful. My horse just started turning her nose away and lifting her head, so those tips were really helpful. I switched to an Acavallo (from Italy) plastic bit for winter, because I think she was avoiding the bit because it was cold, and that was causing it to clank against her teeth when she moved while bridling, which reinforced wanting to avoid it even more. It isn't even freezing weather yet, but she is one of those mares who makes a goal out of trying to train her humans make life easier for her. 😹The plastic bit is not icy, and it has a little flex in it. I think she likes it a lot better than the fancy expensive ones! The only thing about them is the colors can be tacky. I chose the Italian one becuase it is blue. The American Brand (Happy Mouth) is white, and the German brand (I forget) is orange.

[@sapphirehi1615]

This helped my so much because I just started riding lessons and this helped my so much

[@abeldasilva9368]

This video was a great help to me and my lesson horse.We thank you so much.

[@theresadeshaies470]

[@Anaana-jl5kg]

Thank you!

[@user-ek7qy4gk5k]

Your bridle is nice! I don't have that in my horse i use only a piece of rope. If you have extra bridle pls sell out in me i badly need that thing ☺️

[@grimeyIRF]

Cuz tucker is so chill

[@frankgeniusza1524]

She's beautiful actually enjoyed the vid because it.

[@rhinebckfirefighter]

Tucker is awesome

[@traceysawmiller9772]

hi

[@lillipix5361]

This video helps a lot because I can never get the horse to open their mouth when putting on the bridle

[@eviethestreameryo8429]

I am sure thins is going to work you sound nice

[@brynndevries22]

yeah you taught me much better then my teacher did

[@Yallitspamelapumpkin]

My 27yr old gelding use to swing his head up but he sadly passed away last week

[@riahkandyil4671]

WHAT?! IT WAS THIS EASY THE WHOLE TIME >:(

[@jayc.9713]

Would putting on a bit less bridle be similar? I know noseband placement is crucial in the same ways that bit placement is.

[@jennyann8812]

on a 2 hour drive next to a big field me: oh i would love to canter in that field 30 seconds later me: or that one the grass is more green 20 seconds later oh yeah that one looks even better my friend: jumps out the window cuz i am driving her crazy 😂 my life though

[@lynnhaskin227]

How do you handle horses that dip their heads down when you're trying to bridle them? By the way, you remind me of the actor Rose Leslie (Ygritte-Game of Thrones and Gwen-Downton Abbey) Thank you for your videos!

[@jaidenayers1783]

“I always put the reins over their head before I take the bridle off 😂

[@ChogeRandom]

Tucker just wondering why Carmella keeps taking on and off his bridle:

[@catrinahartz944]

Ty. I forget all the time. Ugg

[@pixiiedust7815]

Im not a new rider but i have always struggled with putting on bridles.

[@mako6082]

What if my horse spits the bit out?

[@amyplumpton8388]

My horse struggling to get his bridle on but when its on his fine x

[@amyplumpton8388]

I hope this helps lately x

[@ellaclimbs7132]

my horse is great to be bridled but i volunteer at my barn and their is a new horse that trys to put his tongue over the bit so when I hv to get him ready for a lesson it takes a long time for me to bridle him. I already know how to bridle but ive been struggling on this. Any tips?

[@ChogeRandom]

In the ranch I ride, whenever the horses misbehave, the helpers and workers slap their faces a bit. Try that whenever he puts his tongue over the bit

[@ellaclimbs7132]

@@ChogeRandom hmmmm... I wouldn't do it hard, I might try it next time

[@rainbowgalaxykid1965]

Does the part to go in the mouth hurt them? It looks painful.

[@ariellewilson730]

Actually, bits don't hurt their mouths...well, there are ones that do, but anyway, bits don't hurt horses unless we make it painful.

[@rainbowgalaxykid1965]

@ariellewilson730 so you mean they don't feel it😳 wow... Double wow for the bits that do hurt. Why would anyone want to hurt a horse. 🤔 I'm guessing there are many reasons but I would rather want to think that there is still good in this world

[@KBQQQ]

"imagine if you had metal pressed against your teeth" Braces

[@gerrycoleman7290]

The lead in photo, that procedure traps the horse.

[@w102kxd]

Do you put on a bridle on a horse before you groom it ?

[@ladynin1]

This helped but aren't you afraid he'll bite ?

[@Liviousa]

Not all horses bite.

[@Sweetnixiex3]

I really struggle with my horse not opening his mouth, no matter what I do

[@konaandme9035]

do you need to have a bit on the briddle?

[@ChogeRandom]

No

[@HicksteadStables]

Fun fact I’m also short lmao 😂🤪

[@gamingbrosire4641]

English and Irish?

[@randomactivitiesco.5848]

I know how the horse feels, I have braces and metal is pressed agents my teeth.

[@Razzle_and_Dazzle.]

the bit doesnt touch the teeth, horses have a large gap in between their teeth and that is where the bit goes

[@DCMMathewsW]

Ouch ! Wouldn't it hurt it's mouth

[@chaosqueen1703]

Not all bits hurt
