Nancy Ramsey The best cure for this problem is time and consistency.  You can try a few different approaches.  One I like is to put the horse in a halter, then put my lariet rope on the saddle horn and drop enough slack that the rope almost reaches the ground.  Then I swing the rope around jump rope style.  She will spook at first, but just keep going slow until she relaxes.  When she does, stop swinging the rope and back away.  wait until she licks and chews then start again.  Do this on both sides and if you're like me, the left side will be very cumbersome.  Just swing slowly and stand off at an angle so you don't hit her in the head with the rope.  Eventually, you want to work up to where you can swing the rope gently and throw it over her head to the other side  and then back.  Let me know when she will accept this far and we'll go the next step.  Good luck! 🙂

Aubrey Isaacson All I can say is give it a shot.  Some horses prefer a nose band over a bit for whatever reason.  A sidepull is a great choice, but it won't be like a bit.  If you want to transition back to a bit, let her wear it while standing around tied and train her in the sidepull.  Then maybe transition back to a bit if you like.  Usually, if a horse doesn't get along with a bit, it's because they aren't comfortable with it for some reason.  I like to just let them wear it until they become comfortable.  Good luck and keep us posted.🙂

Stephen Gowling Thanks for the input.  I look forward to talking more soon.

Randy Hodge Thank you!  I hope the boys can use the info.🙂

Jonathan sanchez Good news!  Keep us posted.🙂

Jonathan sanchez Right now there are just the 2 or 3 videos specifically covering neck reining. If you type "neck" in the search bar you might find one you haven't seen yet.  I need to do some more on the subject.   I'll work on it!  Thanks!

Mckenna Merrill That's great news!  Thanks for sharing.  As far as standing quietly, I fnd that a job helps more than anything.  Perhaps tie her out and go get her from time to time to do some work.  Maybe trot or lope some circles or something more relevant if possible.  Then, tie her back up.  She'll learn that standing around is preferable to the alternative.  It will take a while though.  So don't get discouraged.  🙂 

Lynn Morrison I keep the drugs on hand to make it simple, but some horses can be trained.  I think the key is to keep things comfortable for him.  No cold hands or cold water🥶!  I'm not aware of a non-rinse product.  I use Excalibur.
