Acceptance of the Bridle

   

Following acceptance of the saddle, Trent introduces the bridle to the horse. At first, Trent uses a loose ring snaffle bit on the horse, as he does with all the horses he trains. As with all the equipment used, the young horse is allowed to smell the bridle. Trent then places the bridle against the horse's head and rubs it around.
Moving slowly, Trent places the bit in the horse's mouth and allows him to get used to the new feeling. After a few moments, Trent mounts the horse and begins teaching him how to follow the bit.
