I have to teach my 3yr old Paint and 12 year old TB to do that!

@tipafitzzy I taught both of my horses how to bring their head to the bit/bridle when they were less than 3 yrs old. The first horse in the video is only 3yrs old. That is not to say they are ridden when the equipment is introduced, they are just introduced to it so that I can teach them about how I want them to respond to it in hand and for the ridden work that will follow at some stage (when they are ready).

@tipafitzzy The idea is to ask your horse to bring his head to the bit, not you taking the bit to him. If you work on that principal then you get to know how your horse feels about the bit. If you need to, you can start to work on changing his perception of the bit with the clicker.

@ipluckmygreyhair I'm glad it is useful. Are you clicker training your horse ?

@smaarthorses Not yet, but I planned to in the near future. I've been researching how it is applied.

@tipafitzzy So sitting on them becomes the next natural step for them and they already know a huge number of the aids I will be using.....as such, its not a shock to them.
