Fact. You shouldn't let a horse lay down when they're clicking. Fact or Fiction: A horse's teeth never stop growing To go back and answer my query, you CAN let a horse lay down, as long as the horse does not roll. Simply laying down does not harm your horse, especially if they are exhausted and in pain. If they show signs of wanting to roll, then they must be brought back to their feet. But anyway, MORI has the next question!

Fiction! Horses normally see in yellow-gray tones, which means they can't see pink. FoF: Hanging cheek ( or Baucher) bits apply pool pressure. Fact, the hanging cheek/baucher applies a small amount of poll pressure. This comes from the "hanging" portion of the ring which attaches to the cheekpieces. Pulling on the reins simultaneously applies backwards pressure on the mouth and downward pressure on the poll. Fact or fiction: Bauchers are legal for dressage competitions.
