Only when he shakes he gets faster and faster and doesn’t listen to cues, so it can be quite dangerous. She uses a hairnet that attaches to his bridle and goes over his nose. This is enough to keep him focused and seems to work pretty well!

Old appendix who does this,not on a daily basis, but when he does it takes over and makes our riding difficult. I thought he was just being obstinate ,and have checked bits, bridles, girths, and used as light a touch as possible to no avail. Thank you for the information.

I have a friend going through the same thing with her horse, and trying to figure out why he shakes his head so much.
