| Abstract: |
An apparatus, operated by the horse rider or trainer, is combined with the conventional bridle-bit-reins assembly normally used to govern a horse. In addition to and independently from the other means of control available to a horse handler, the apparatus provides means to the rider for rewarding or punishing his horse immediately, in a manner which is neither injurious nor abusive to his mount and which can even be beneficial to the horse's health, according to the horse's behavior or responses to the handler's command. The apparatus control is located and fastened on each one of the two reins, one intended for reward and the other for punishment, in such a manner that the motion of a finger of the hand holding that rein suffices to administer either reward or punishment instantly, as the occasion and circumstances warrant. The power source, the reward/punishment media and those media storing and dispensing means are all attached to and supported by the bridle.
