I have a few questions about the fit, the ring connecting the noseband straps. Should it be right on the cheek? Also are the rings stainless steel or brass? Ot are they zinc and subject to rust? Lastly, I looked at the store, and many of the browbands I would want are out of stock, will there be more anytime soon? I need to measure my mare before ordering.

My first time seeing you. I have never been comfortable using bits. E Since childhood I have believed them to be cruel, and as I aged I realized that Bits were also unnecessary for handling a horse. I believe those that use bits do so to ensure they can CONTROL the horse thru Deliberate Pain/Torture. I will never again mount with a bit. I Love your concerns for your horse's Comfort. I am the same way. Thank You😍💕

Came here to show someone the difference between a "control" trainer and how you interact with your horses... and wow! There you said it straight out -- how you don't like the word "control." It's the symbiotic relationship we have with our animals that works so well and is so beautiful -- NOT a "master-slave" type that some of the people do with their controlling methodology.

@micah06v8 8 месяцев назад

As someone who owned a horse way before bitless bridles became popular, and before gentling became a thing; I just want to say how honored I feel to live in a time where we now consider how what we do affects these animals. That we are conscious of the fact that how we treat them matters. I remember bridling my horse when I was a kid. The bit would clank into his teeth and I would just feel so horrible! When I would mention how uncomfortable that must be for them, nobody seemed to care! I am so ecstatic and grateful that that is no longer the case!

I so agree with you on the bit less bridle. I rode western when I was younger and we always used shank bits. But recently got back into riding and bought a beautiful 27 year old young Arabian. He was always ridden in a snaffle, but seeing you and other trainers switching to bitless, I knew I wanted to ride bit less as well. He transitioned so beautifully into the side pull bridle. With he snaffle it hurt his teeth and he fought his previous owner whenever she tried to it on. But with bit less bridle he is so happy he literally puts his head into bridle himself when I tack him up. Thank you so much for sharing your horses and expertise. It has definitely helped me in my horse journey.😊

@panboo5250 8 месяцев назад

My current lesson horse is also a morgan cross (and the same color!) and he was ridden in a hackamore for his entire life at a dude ranch. Because it was bitless, they thought they could pull as hard as they wanted on his face and nothing would be detrimental for him. He now has permanent nerve damage in his face, and can't be ridden in a bit because it hurts him. I ride him in a bitless sidepull, and he enjoys that a lot more. It's helped me focus on my seat a lot more.

Bagheera is remarkable. She is young at heart! Her coat and eyes are shiny and bright which indicates what great health she is in. I love trail riding the best too. In all positions. Thanks so much for giving an in depth share regarding the bitless bridle tack, you have designed and remarking on some differences btwn your design and others. I love learning about all tack and your experience and knowledge about your choices and preferences. I learn so much about your experiences. You are a great teacher in your sharing. Thanks for taking the time and energy you put into your vlogs! Bagheera was a great choice for your bitless bridle, and hack today. Peace and Blessings to you, Shae, Kyle, and all the Free Spirit Equestrian Farm Family. Hope you had a great Thanksgiving. I m very grateful for your channel. You inspire me and teach me so much about horses, tack and the farm life you have in Michigan! ☮️💟💞💗💓❤️💙

What a blessing for both you and Baghera. She being sent to auction because of her age and you because she is a rock steady multipurpose gentle mare who has been there and seen that. She has the best place possible to end her years; wonderful care, love and still much needed in many roles. Warms my heart greatly. And regarding the bridals, you clearly have done a lot of research and of course have first hand knowledge for the betterment of all horse's. So proud for you. May your mission become successful beyond your dreams. Please give us a few updates on Jafar and Olaf in thier new home's if you can. We will definitely miss them

@oliviacasino8888 8 месяцев назад

Thank you so much for your “teaching videos.” Your explanations of matters really help educate the public in general as well as the “horsey set!” As a child I never really thought much about the horses side of things…from their point of view but it all makes more sense now in how to treat the animal is primary in helping them to enjoy their time on earth and with human beings as owners. Thank you again, Shae, as I feel you are really helping others with your posts. Calif. calling

I've always liked Bagheera's build. She looks so compact and efficient. I went to look at the Morgan and Standardbred breed standards, and Morgan X Standardbred strikes me as a great combo. Thanks for going into the anatomy of a horse's head it makes so much more sense of the bridle.

I love your relationship with your horses, the time you take with them to bring them along is heartwarming. I wish show jumpers could go bitless, some of the falls must do a lot of damage to the horse's mouth. You are so knowledgable about the bitless bridle, you should have some clinics, there are people who need to learn how to develop the relationship with their horses that you have.

@doggolover3152 8 месяцев назад

You inspire me so much Shae, I can't even describe it. I've always wanted a career with horses and I'm always told "you're not going to make anything doing that". I'm so passionate about working with them, and I hope to do exactly what you do some day. Thank you for giving me hope, you're so inspiring and I love what you do for the horses ❤️

Nice to learn about bitless bridles, i had NO idea there were so many varieties or about the mechanics of the fitting. I used to ride a mare who was very bit sensitive and would pull her tongue up over the bit often, I wish I'd known more about bitless back then because I think she would have responded really well to them. And Bagheera! What a sweet model she is! She really looks amazing for 30, I wouldn't peg her for too much over 20 (probably around 23-24) if I saw her in passing. Keeping active into your golden years really is good for horses and people. Lovely madame Bagheera is a stunning example of that. ♥

I ❤ that you are teaching people about bit less bridles. I find it hard to watch people ride in movies or on videos because so many people are causing real pain and sometimes permanent harm to horses mouths. I’m fine with proper bits in proper light hands but you see that far too rarely. I could ride and control a young very spirited thoroughbred completely bridle less. I never took her out of pasture without it but our pastures were hundreds of acres. I could run her flat out and stop just as quickly as with a bridle. Training! And trust and respect.
