I'm so happy for Beetle! I wouldn't like a bit (not one bit) either, Beetle.

Yay for bitless bridles!

Beetle was so happy!

I love this- Gabby used a bitless bridle and we both loved it. I was not worried about accidently hurting her sensitive mouth and she was very responsive. It was great a transition. I also love how you listen to him- he sounds communicative and you receptive. I am so happy for you both.

How did you figure out he hates the sound of water from a hose?

Alice Rentz's avatar

When I put him in the wash stall, the minute I turn the hose on high he gets upset, even if the water isn't on him.

Aw! I wonder why that bothers him. I guess horses can have sensory sensitivities just like people do.

Exactly! As I like to say, horses are people too. :)
