Okay, you clearly have the wrong idea. :T My horse willingly rakes the bit.. I bring it to his mouth, and he eagerly scoops it inti his mouth, without hitting his teeth, and holds it in place. >>; What more? HE'S ONLY THREE YEARS OLD. If the bit hurt him at all, he wouldn't take in into his mouth at all. HOWEVER, you do get riders who rely on the bit to jerk the horse's head around all the time... That's pretty inhumane. They forget that the bit can be really painful, when used improperly.

The BIT itself is NOT abusive. The rider using it wrong is! If bits are used correctly, the horse is NOT in pain. Hackamores are NOT a cure-all either. I've seen horses with broken noses and damaged faces from incorrectly used hackamores. So please, don't direct the abuse at the bit, direct it at the people using them wrong.

If the bit hurts my horse then tell me why he comes to me when i go to catch him. he wouldn't do that if i was causing him pain.

a lot of these pictures were taken out of context.. like the one with anky van grunsvan.. i saw the test she was riding when those pictures were taken and the horse stumbled and his head went down and under before it went back into position so people are making it look like she forces her horses to ride with their heads like that. and some of these horses are just getting excited and throwing their head around so it's made to seem like they're "trying to get away from the pain"
By: MAISIEMOLLY1. on 28 Nov 08, 20:48:42
yes it is abuse, when used in these ways. thats why i dont have lessons on my horse, were happy hackers who hack around with a long rein and light contact, if i had lessons, i would be told to "bring my horses head in" shes 22 so im not doing that to her

Ach.. wat kun je ertegen doen hé. Mensen die niks van paarden afweten, het alleen maar denken. Je kunt er niks aan doen.
By: kyreannightblood. on 26 Nov 08, 04:24:52
Oh my god, a bit is not abuse. It can be, in the wrong hands: like when the rider drags on ther reins or saws the bit. Yet the majority don't. My horse actually grabs the bit from my hand when I approach her (snatches it out of my grip), because she loves the way it tates and feels (I use a copper snaffle, and horses love the copper) and most of all, she loves the ride that comes with it.
By: Neighingfilly. on 25 Nov 08, 11:43:25
Uggghhhh!! This is so TRAGIC!! "This is why people shouldn't use bits" Oh my fucking gawd, are you DUMB? This sort of trend is coming out: "uhhh!! bit is horse abuse" but it fucking isn't. It's when the rider use it without thinking or use it roughly it becomes abuse. but thats not the bit's fault. its the rider. So the ones that ride like this, should not be allowed to ride! FUCK u :@
By: KillerQueenRalphe. on 25 Nov 08, 02:37:04
USER ERROR not BIT ERROR! Bits are only as strong as the rider using them. LOL, I love how you put this deathly depressing to this video. AND How you show pictures of issues that are NOT related to the bit. Wow..

I use a rope halter also called natural horsemanship with my appy for western & english . also the New western horse is preferred to be ridden w/ a haccamore or rope halter

Do u dressage ppl realise when u bring a horse face in past vertical it restricts their breathing & they cant see? I really think this has all gone a bit out of propotion i think that ppl need educating to wat a bit does to a horses mouth when used incorrectly. When we muster we have no contact with the horses mouth our hands r kept low then by just picking our hands up this gives the message to the horse to act no contact to the mouth is made until we need to stop & i dont think thats abuse.

I trained my young horses bareback then a treeless Barefoot Saddle which uses a double elestic girth. Much better than bareback because no pressure points of the rider on the spine for longer rides. I use a rope halter side pull-but I also can ride them reinless in the areana because of teaching them to be extra light and "feel" and if you ride with your seat and legs you only have to lift a rein to ask for direction.

exactly! thank you! 2:35 the guy has no contact on the reins and the horse probably just threw his head up.

Not when they are shot they where here brfore any of us and deseve to live free as any animal dose, not in cages and in freaking pens, shooting an animal is wrong, just like if you where to shoot a friend all they do is fear of us and obviously where you come from you should not have horses if you feel the way about the wild ones sorry but your precious babies came from the same damn place think about them getting shot next time you see a wild one.
By: ViktoreaFrances. on 15 Nov 08, 03:23:45
Good video well done, and everyone has there own opinions but really listen to your horse, listen to what they tell you even without words. If your hurting them in any way you should not have them, think about that when you get mad at them :) Be nice to your best friend in the world!

A BIT IS NOT ABUSE!!!it is not harming to the horse if u use it properly. my horse lets me know if he doesnt like something and he is just fine with the bit in his mouth. anyways most of the pics in the first part dont even have anything to do with bits
By: lovewalksin. on 13 Nov 08, 09:36:23
And I praise you who use a rubber bit, that is a whole different ballgame.
By: lovewalksin. on 13 Nov 08, 09:34:26
Hello no1horselover, fighting the good fight I see.Good for you, no bit or saddle. Dressage is particularly gruesome, the head is yanked into a totally unnatural position, the mouth often open, and frothing. Frothing has long been known as a sign of deep distress in horses (wouldn't it be in you?). Nothing is more beautiful than a man free horse running of its own accord, but that is utopian. The rest should ride like no1horselover, a TRUE horsewoman

These bits are in the wrong hands, if I ride my horse you see harmony and love, she loves to ride, and I do too. It's not always cruel. I'm sorry for my english I'm dutch..
By: DesertRacerGirl. on 08 Nov 08, 04:59:35
A bit can be harsh in the wrong hands, soft in the right hands. I dont like metal bits, so i use a soft rubber one. And im sure my horse loves to jump. I turn her out whenever I go out to ride her, and she jumps whenever possible! I say her name and she runs up to me, skidds to a stop and nickers. I, personally TOTALLY dissapove of seesawing, and i just wiggle the reins to get her attention! I take her out for walks with her halter and lead rope on 2 times a week.
By: Sweetrosesinmyarms. on 07 Nov 08, 20:39:57
@Brankaa1: I absolutely agree ! Humans have created so many partly cruel tools in order to make animals "work" for them (ej, riding should be FUN for you and your horse! not hard work) and what is most important to control them. The only thing you should try to slower your horse with or make it calm down is your position on its back and your legs.The horse can feel you´re with him but dont work against him by pulling on the bit
By: no1horselover. on 05 Nov 08, 13:19:29
great video! I hate bridles and saddles. I dont use either, bareback and with no rope or anything. If I go out on a hack I put a halter on him. Thats how they should be ridden. Not with bits and heavy saddles with tight girths. CRUEL!!
By: Muleismyname. on 04 Nov 08, 02:35:40
Have you ever been in a show??? It is so nerv racking to you and your horse. sometimes accidets happen and all you and do is say sorry to your horse and learn from your mistakes. If you own your own horses or even trained horses it is a hard job and you do your best.
By: sezzies1. on 04 Nov 08, 00:05:33
oh and also where i come from wild horses are a pest and get shott by the hundreds dont you think domesticting them and ridding them with bits is a more humane option? i think i know what a horse would choosse think about it life or death? I would love to know what you think about real abuse ie: bull fighting, dog fighting, seems to me like the horse has a prety good life compared to a lot of other animals
By: sezzies1. on 03 Nov 08, 23:55:15
obviously the person that put this on here doesnt know much about horses or horsmanship. all of my 37 horses that i have owned have alawys exepted a bit knowing full well they were going for an enjoying ride, I have seen the damage a hackmore nose band can do and other bitless bridles used in the wrong hands so both have there pros and cons but at the end of the day if you have to use your hands hard enough to cause damage to either mouth or nose you shouldnt be ridding
