I am well aware that the PeeWee isn't dressage legal, no worries there :D

But, given the fact my flatwork bridle was at home today, when I was supposed to be having a lesson, the only 'snaffle' I had was the PeeWee (figured it was close enough) so swapped it onto Dan's jumping bridle and away we went.

Normally he'd faff with a new bit and dribble like crazy etc - he used to with this but hasn't worn it for at least a year!
Nope :coonfused: Quiet, still mouth. Very positive feeling contact - inconsistent at first because it's a habit of his, but when we had it, it felt SO much better! And we managed some straight leg-yielding without him turning inside out, and round canter transitions :D

Now..... why isn't it dressage legal!? Ideally think I need something quite thin, that's not going to slide through his mouth, and is generally fairly similar... any ideas?

Thanks in advance,
