I've just ordered a new bitless bridle for Bugsy - he isn't comfortable with a bit, even a very gentle one, so I thought I'd try this Dr Cook's bitless bridle.

I've ridden my horse in a dr cooks bitless bridle for years without any problems. I have a synthetic one that looks like leather but washes in the machine!
