Happy Mouth & Rubber Bits


Snaffles are the most common groups of bits for every day riding. Snaffle bits are identified as having no leverage or pulley action and do not have a curb chain. There is a vast variety of snaffle bits on the market, allowing you to find the most suitable option for your horse. They vary in severity, depending on the type and thickness of the mouthpiece. Snaffles apply pressure to the lips, tongues and bars of the mouth and have a general upwards action, encouraging the horse to raise his head and neck.


Happy Mouth and rubber mouthpiece bits are softer in comparison to metal and are designed to be gentle in the horse’s mouth. They are lighter and flexible, particularly suited to young or more sensitive horses. The soft covering generally makes the mouthpiece thicker, which helps further with the softer action on the mouth.


When selecting the correct bit for your horse remember that conformation, age, stage of training, type of work, oral health and your ability as a rider are all contributing factors. If in doubt, it’s recommended that the rider seek advice from their instructor when choosing a bit.
