The document discusses the use of tight nosebands in dressage and their potential negative effects on horses. It notes that historically, nosebands served different purposes but are now often used very tightly to keep a horse's mouth closed. However, a tight noseband can put pressure on nerves in the horse's face, inhibit swallowing and tensing of muscles, and interfere with proper movement and carriage. The document advocates for nosebands to be fitted loosely enough to allow 1-2 fingers between the noseband and horse's face to avoid discomfort or restrictions in movement.
The document discusses the adoption of over 100 Icelandic horses from Extreme Farms in Washington that had been living in semi-wild conditions with little human contact. It describes the challenges of acclimating these "unhandled" horses to domestic life, providing examples of three horses' progress over about a year. While some adapted quickly to training, others required extensive work or were rehomed multiple times due to difficulties trusting humans. The outcomes varied greatly depending on factors like the horse's age and early experiences. Owners worked to register the horses with the help of groups providing information. Adopting an unhandled horse carries risks and costs compared to a trained horse from a breeder.
