The Beery Pulley Bridle:<br \/>\nMany are simply shocked at how well it works<\/p>\n<p>I got a real nice email from Michele in England that I<br \/>\nwant to share.\u00a0 Michele bought the Beery Pulley Bridle<br \/>\nand tried it out on her horse, Stormy.\u00a0 She had to write<br \/>\nand tell me the good news!<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll let her email speak for itself:<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;<br \/>\nHi there Charlie, I hope you are well.<\/p>\n<p>I bought a Beery Pulley Bridle from you. I would like you<br \/>\nto add this comment to your testimonials about this<br \/>\namazing piece of equipment.<\/p>\n<p>My pony a 13.2 pure bred Haflinger 5 years old is very<br \/>\ndifficult to handle as he is extremely nervous. He has<br \/>\nnever been mistreated so I put this down to being<br \/>\nvery green. He doesn&#8217;t bite or kick but has a very bad<br \/>\nhabit of rearing (again just green) on Monday I went to<br \/>\nput a saddle on his back (not broken to be ridden yet)<br \/>\nand with the use of the bridle he was as good as gold.<\/p>\n<p>He has had a saddle on before but not for awhile and<br \/>\nlast time I tried to put a saddle on him before I got<br \/>\nthe bridle it proved impossible. I always make sure<br \/>\nthe bridle is on correctly with the pulley being between<br \/>\nthe eye and the ear and on Monday I even managed to<br \/>\nlean with my full weight on his back which was a first.<\/p>\n<p>The great thing about this bridle is, although it<br \/>\nworks in a similar way to a gag, the rope bit does<br \/>\nnot cause any discomfort to the animal which is great.<\/p>\n<p>Leading him now is also so much easier and I feel<br \/>\nlike I have more control. He is such a beautiful<br \/>\nlittle pony who I love to bits and I wouldn&#8217;t want<br \/>\nto do anything to hurt him so this bridle has<br \/>\nbeen a God send.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you so much for introducing me to this<br \/>\nproduct and keep up the good work.<\/p>\n<p>WARMEST REGARDS<\/p>\n<p>MICHELE J.
