Hi Trish--I never have handled a Luisitano but I did own a pure Puerto Rican Paso Fino mare for a long time. There may be some similarities though the movements are different. Both breeds are Iberian horses, and my mare was EXTREMEMLY fiery and resp…
Now I am trying to imagine the best way to explain how sensitive she is. Hmmm, if I breath out from a canter she will almost halt on the spot. Absolutely no intermediate riders can get on her - only advanced and we have only had two riders including…
What I mean by sensitive is that she tries to anticipate every move. I do in hand work with her such as shoulder-in, and the shoulder-in volte on a circle. She sometimes gets very worked up if anyone does in hand work with her. Also, under saddle we…
I'm not sure I get what you mean by sensitive.... he's not your breed, but he's been called sensitive. I make sure we do alot of work with him releasing his endorphins so he will stay level headed. Softening him, etc.... so that no matter what bridl…
Does anyone out there have any experience with the Viega line Lustiano mares? I have one who is extremely sensitive. I would like to know if there is anyone else with the same. The photo is of my mare's Sire - drop dead gorgeous but read your mind s…
Well, I am not entirely sold on the bitless bridle yet. We tried (mostly for the fun aspect) a bitless bridle on my mare - a very sensitive psp andalusian. What a ride. Wow, she was trying to figure that thing out from the very beginning - trying to…

Trying out bitless bridles
Well, I am not entirely sold on the bitless bridle yet. We tried (mostly for the fun aspect) a bitless bridle on my mare - a very sensitive psp andalusian. What a ride. Wow, she was trying to figure that thing out from the very beginning - trying to anticipate our wishes. pretty much all she did was passage for the first 5 minutes, do some spins and maybe after 45 minutes could we get her to walk.

Thank you Catherine. That was the message I was trying to get across, but couldn't find the appropriate wording! I look forward to reading and learning in a pleasant manner. Perhaps once day I will have something to add to conversations!
