I TRIED RIDING MY DRAFT HORSE BITLESS AND… 

Shae, Gaston is marvelous and is getting to be a Star in his own right! I just love his canter. No wonder he doesn't want to stop -- He knows how great he looks! Bright red is definitely his best color. Wahoo! 🤠🐎❣

Can't help but think that all horse's need and deserve bitless . Very nice that the primary focus is on comfort and appearance and style secondary. Go Shae!

yes! bitless! Its so much kinder than the pain/pressure/discomfort bits accomplish. Well done on your own design. Love also how you bond with them, its so important for the trust factor. Horses need a leader with love! ❤️😉🐴 from S. NH

I love the padded crown! Such a nice touch--he did great bit-less. Makes one wonder why we use bits on horses that are willing partners.....

I have always felt that a bitless bridle is the way to go, and I'm so glad to see someone using them.👍

First of all - the bridle is really beautiful! And Gaston did so good! He is a gorgeous horse.

Koa your a beautiful boy, I love you too! Gaston your so gorgeous and gentle, when you canter you look like your floating through the air. The touch was so cute, he's truly amazing.

As a Canadian, Gaston is definitely one of my favourites (don't tell the others, haha). Great ride, he did so well in the new bridle :)

this looks like so much fun! you clearly love what you do and it's great just to tag along.

I love that you tried Gaston without a bit. He's awesome! You have patience and the ability to work on his areas that need work! LOVE HIM IN RED!!

It's beautiful on him!!! Perfect color!❤

is such Aa big beautiful boy!❤️🐎

Wow I love Gaston! He’s so gorgeous! I love his floail!❤️😀🐗

I love bitless. I went to a hunt and some of the young people had bitless bridals on their OTTB s.

Gaston loves you very much. He always tries to make you proud of him ❤

Gaston is a lovely boy!

I am so proud of my favorite boy

Great session! Terrific horse. Terrific horsemanship.

I love Gaston in red he looks so cute

I think brideless is very nice and horsefriendly .🥰

Gaston the great....what a lovely well schooled boy he is....he done good....🐎

Yes for red!!! ❤️

Shae, that is a "friendly" comfy bridle! ❤ Gaston is gorgeous ❤

He looks nice in that bridle.

Gaston is Beautiful❗️Enjoyed this video👍

Big fan need a horse asap

I love all of your horse shae & your dog & pig ❤❤❤

He looks great in 🍒 red, definitely needs more red accents. ❤

It's really fun going with you on your rides, and training. I can no longer ride so I'm enjoying through you. God bless you all.

Sometimes your horses nod or shake their heads as if they’re listening and understand what your conversation is saying! They know their commands and they agree with your teaching content!! I love seeing their personalities shine as they stand beside you.

Red is definitely fabulous on Gaston! He’s so beautiful and bold color works for him. ❤

Love the bridle you designed! Gaston is great, and so are all of your ponies.

I would love a video of your ground pole exercises! Gaston is such a good boy ❤

Your design seemed perfect for him good for you You have many talents

Red yes! My favorite color. Looks beautiful on Gaston.

So awesome. I love watching.

Bitless 🐴 happier 🐎 👍

Love this ❤

He's more than Gorgeous gorgeous...... Magnificently awesomely gorgeous❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

❣💯 Aww, the canter queen and big boy from Canada! Really love your emphasis on the brow band snap and head crown cushion. Gaston liked following your rein pulls left and right. He didn't snort, chortle or blow, so his lungs were really in sync with the exercise. Thanks, Shae, for the details on going bitless which I was interested in, in your last video. Most don't go bitless and I've never really understood why. To win competitions? Gaston's head is so handsome. If it is "big," then it fits his "drafty" body very well. Glad it's only 42 degrees there. Cali. got slammed with powerful 70 mph winds; you must be really glad you're not here. Keep on smiling for us. Your shows are uplifting!

Awesome video. Thanks Shea 🤠 I admire you so much and how you are with your horses. Wish I lived a little closer. Yes I bet he would look beautiful in red ❤️

He suits that red head collar

Shae it was wonderful watching Gaston doing his training he did a good job .... keep up the good work girl ..

Gaston looks so handsome in his red halter he needs a charm imagina terminix bridal when he moves its wings

I loved this session. I learned so much, as usual. Youre so cute with your animals. Very dear relationships.

I like the way he moves.

Love that bridle😃

Such a lovely boy! Gaston had me smiling the entire video.. he looks so good going through the exercises… good job!❤

At our barn, we rarely use bit bridles 😮

GASTON IS MY FAVORITE ❤❤❤❤❤❤

Oh Shae Gaston looks stunning in the red halter, and l love the ew bridle too, you’ve done an amazing job designing it, oh most definitely yes l would love to see him in more red, tfs x Julie 🇬🇧

Thanks for sharing this party🎉 so sweet❤

Lovly work today I love the bit less bridle much kinder on the horse and his response to you is fab to watch. Good work out 🥰

I'm going to say one more thing in my sleep deprived state before I go ;) Hoping the extra comments help you somehow. It must be very rewarding and an interesting process to design the bridle with an individual or company. The snap off browband blew my mind a little. Ok goodnight! Hope you get tons of views and subs ;)

Hey Shae, watching your channel became my life routine. Thank you for sending us such a positive equestrian heart. Gaston also is peaceful horse. Make me so comfy to watch. I have reminded what you been looking for any question from us. If you have a chance, would like to hear a your favorite book about horse(Riding instruction, Masterpiece of literature, Biography, and so on). Cheer!

Flowy

he is so beautiful!

Love the video Gaston looks great in is bitless bridle and he looks awesome in is red halter your doing a fantastic job with all your horses 😊😊

That is one classy bridle. Very good design and very nice materials. One question: does the jaw strap hold the bridle on better than a throatlatch does? It’s too bad that most competitions don’t allow riders to compete with bitless bridles.

love him

I love Gaston, love big breeds!! Bit less is beautiful 🤩 I said “ Oohh Shae is Way UP there on Gaston!! Lol much respect and 💕

Gaston is wonderful horse to watch. He is very handsome. A good size for me 😮. Is he the one who is 30? Enjoyed this

Yay he is so fun

I recommend heading over to Sugarcreek auctions! That’s where I got my little gurly goose!!! I love your videos

You are an amazing horse owner. I love watching your video! The relationship you have developed with each one is beautiful! I do have a question for you. I don't know what you mean when you say Gaston is forward. I had a horse for a short time but never knew all that I see you doing. Sadly my horse died during Christmas when I was in 8th grade. I look for your videos every day even though I know you don't post every day but one can hope! 😁

I love all your videos!! Could you please do a video on how to properly measure your horse for a saddle? Is there a certain website that you put your horses on that you will be selling? Thank you and I love all of your horses!!

Lol'ed with you with that expression he greeted you with in contrast to Bagheera! Hysterical. Also his lips flapping as you slowed him from the trot to walk with his head down. Sometime the look in his eye is more intelligent seeming than I see coming, it's sort of breathtaking. Am I weird? Is the back of this saddle higher than usual? Or about the same as other dressage saddles? It looks comfortable, or at least supportive. How amazing how he mostly just figures out the bitless bridle right away. I wonder if he is conscious of there not being a bit in his mouth, thinking 'oh, good. Not that thing, I could get used to this!' I remember when I was first learning about switching leads, I was so confused.... took a while to get my then teenage head in the game. I'd never noticed which feet were moving where and when! The horse didn't know yet either so what a challenge and great learning experience. The excitement when we started figuring it out! ok one more question. I don't expect you to answer any of these and thank you for all the times you've responded to my comments, it's exciting and fun when I see a response from you! ! ! The question is - those little bars on each rein closest to the face - to keep them from twisting? OK I'll stop now. Not only your horses are a joy to watch but your riding too.

When did you get the draft horse? He's gorgeous. He has a big everything! I wish you were closer.

Looking good! Love the bitless design and such a handsome mister in red ❤ it’s nice you mentioned about keeping the correct leg position. So many people flop around and I remember my old instructor was brutal during lessons😬 I really like how well he responded with his new head gear and him backing up easily. The individual riding/training session videos you’re doing is so nice to watch. Get to really see the differences in them but also their gentle similarities. What size saddle pad are you looking for him?

Hiiiii, I am curious, who did you get to make Gaston's bridle for you? You two look beautiful and effortless together. Very smooth ride!!!

When i will buy my own horses (when ill move out) I'm gonna ride bitless :D II think it would be really good for me and my horse, but it ofcourse depends on my horse too !!

I like it without the pit

Have you seen Ken Mcnabb how to ride your horse? It is quite interesting how he rides his horse His youtube channnel is the same Ken mcnabb

The red halter is so good looking against his dark color, very striking! Lookin good you two. Why a jaw strap rather than a throat latch. The jaw strap looks restrictive to opening his mouth. What made this bridle an English bridle, it’s design? If so, what about the design made it English. Bit less bridles are new to me, who thought it ever possible? 🤔hmm… I’m thinking about it.

Shae, great video with Gaston. I have some questions which I hope you'll answer: what is the purpose of a standing trot? What is the difference between a miniature pony and a miniature horse? How do you know when a horse enjoys a particular skill over another? Why are horses able to stay out in the elements more than say a dog or a cat? What is the average temperature of a horse? Thanks a lot I don't have the answer, obviously.

Enjoyed your video 💙✌️

Shae, can't wait until you have a baby you will make a wonderful mother

I’ve got a quick question! How do you tell the difference between Gaston and jafar? ( sorry I think I spelt his name wrong). I usually can’t remember who’s who with those two! But bright red is definitely his color! Another thing is how can they tell the difference between bitless and a bit?

What is a two point please?

Just like you I believe every horse has a place if you don't find a new place

Omg that was so he is so good So are u still sad about Meeko I am still sad Love your vids

He’s such a sweet horse! I have a training question if that’s ok, my gypsy cross is only 2 and I’m trying to train her with positive reinforcement and treats like you do. She is getting a little nippy and I’m not sure what to do. Any help would be most appreciated!

I would love to own such an amzing horse an I would like to ask you , witch auction would you recomend for buying a project ponnie

How old is he? I forget what you had told us...

Did you. Git a new hores or did you git him ba

hi from australia try a loose rein canter i loved the loose rein stretch

How do you sell your horses like where at ?

Why do so many ride so tight-reined, look at the reins there is no slack, she might not be pulling but there is tension. I feel so off if I try and ride like that. unless and asking for stomping my horse will have its head and reins will just be hanging. This is an honest question, I was not trained in riding my family had horses and I just grew up learning from the adults and then as an adult myself. but we never rode so tight in the reins she is not the only one. I see this with most YT riders. Would like to know why? My horse is so soft if I just give him his head.

Wait so you plan on selling Prince Charming?

Can you show me how to make a holster as my horse wears her out like they're nothing keep on buying your altars and it's a pain
