Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Horse gear must fit well to best function with the horse’s body and movement.

Each chapter addresses a piece of equipment, such as a saddle, or family of items, such as ground-working equipment; provides an expert opinion on how best to adjust the equipment for a horse’s build and range of motion; and provides, if applicable, event-specific considerations when using that equipment. Equipment care and common equipment-fitting mistakes are addressed in sidebars.

The second part of Major Dwyer's book, which is perhaps even more valuable than the first, relates to "Bits and Bitting," and he shows more conclusively, than any writer who* has preceded him, the importance of great care in the adjustment and management of the bit and bridle, giving some opinions which are quite new to the writer, and which are obviously important. His device for the head-gear of a young horse that is to be broken for any purpose, or of any horse that is to be trained to the saddle, we show in figure 9. This is an ordinary snaffle-bridle, with a single pair of reins, with the check-pieces drawn short enough to cause the bit to touch lightly in the corners of the mouth. There is attached to it, by two straps buckled one into each checkpiece, a nose-band, or strap, which passes around the nose quite below the bit, but high enough to take its bearing on the bone rather than on the cartilage of the nose. This strap is drawn tight enough to prevent the horse from opening his mouth to any considerable width. There is no way in which a colt does more to make himself insensible to the action of the bridle than by stretching open his jaw and bearing against the bit. From the position of this nose-band, it is entirely out of the way of both bridle and bit; and as the mouth is not entirely bound together by it, it can in no way interfere with proper control by the rider. It simply prevents the horse from resorting to a very common means of defence. Another apparatus described must be very useful not only in training, but in the management of all horses who have the trick of carrying their heads se high as to cause the bit, when pulled upon, to ride up into the corners of their mouths instead of...
