The stableizer, more humane than a twitch or torture device?
Only from people who enjoy used it, are familiar beside it, or are knowledgeable within equine pressure pints/ behavior. I keep an emergency twitch and stud fasten on my truck in valise of a horse emergency. I really dislike the twitch and have avoided using it when I should own to save people/ horses from injury. I would close to to have a sanctuary device handy that can bring even the most frightened injured horse under control so they can be treated or prevented from doing further damage.
This device has tons claims of pleasure endorphins or at least tranquil ones. It looks like a fancy period of war bridle that uses gum and poll pressure, but might be more humane than a twitch which a horse fears if used once? It even states it can be used as a training aid... (Yeah right) but might be better than alternatives and drugs for clipping and shoeing. If my horse could actually swot up that having someone trim his feet= pleasure?? tangible or not?
Answers: They used to sell it lower than the name "period of war bridle" You may have hear of it as a Bonaparte bridle (you did dressage training in France right?)
Does it work? On some horses it works great. It requires smaller number hands than a proboscis twitch.
Is it more human? or Does it feel better? Well, I sure wouldn't wear it. Function comes first contained by my mind. If this is what your horse needs to hold still - consequently hey, whatever works right? However, close to a nose twitch, some horses don't allegory to it so well.
I well-read how to do it with rope (the outmoded way). That works well and I didn't own to spend any money to find out. Look up Bonaparte Bridle - something should come up.
Edit: Sorry about the intermingle, I didn't realize it was that older. Basically you take a soft rope explicitly 1/4 inch thick, and tie a slip kink in one closing stages. (A soft saddle rope works well) Put the slip knot around the jowl at the bars. Then run the rope up across the gums, and over the poll, after back to the bar and loop it infront of the rope across the gums. The rope on the jaw act like an anchor to hold the rope surrounded by place when you let up pressure. When you verbs on the free end it will tighten on the gum and poll at like peas in a pod time. The only difference between that and the one you saw is that you have need of to keep one foot on the rope to keep pressure on.
In my limitted experience near it, I can tell you it works righteous on foals and yearlings. They don't move once you put it on. On larger horses, its 50/50 on how well they tolerate it. The rope method - again, sorry I don't enjoy a picture - works nice once you know how to use it. That stabalizer product, it works well too, but it take five minutes to untangle it, put it on, and size it properly. Plus if the horse goes nuts, it doesn't other come off effortlessly.
If I find a picture I will e-mail it to you, or I will just help yourself to a picture of it on one of mine and send it to you.
FOR PEOPLE READING THIS - THIS IS A DEVICE THAT SHOULD BE USED BY EXPERIENCED HORSE PEOPLE. IT CAN CAUSE DAMAGE AND PAIN - IT IS NOT INTENDED FOR ORDINARY HORSE USE.
We have one especially for an Appendix stallion that used to stand up a lot and freshly be a moron and it had no effect on him whatsoever. Also you can see from the picture a moment ago how short the cord is that you have to hold and if they falsie out, you can't hang onto them and after it's loose, flipping about their obverse. Personally I don't like them and not because I come up with they are cruel or inhumane, I think they don't enjoy that much effect. I always use any a twitch or a chifney.
