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 re...

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 includi...

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 ...

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 bri...

Sensitive Lusitanos, Trish Pitzel

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 sensitive.

I used a bitless bridle on her last week and the next ride with a regular french link snaffle she did not trust that the bitless action was going to be set in place again. You could see her think everything through.

I am new to the lusitan… Continue

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.

Stiffening up and won't go 'on the bit' except in a pelham, gets 'pissed' with the pelham (just the pelham?)....I think the best thing to do is get help from a dressage instructor who can show you the way. Ideally, we only use a pelham for 'contr...

You should hear then, that Heuschmann came out shortly before the book, and stated publicly that hyperflexion was not only harmless, it was beneficial.
