This swivel post topper is designed to help horses learn to stand tied quietly without feeling trapped by a fixed tie point. $200 plus shipping

Instead of a horse hitting hard backward pressure and panicking, the topper rotates as the horse moves around the post. That movement helps redirect pressure and gives the horse room to think, move his feet, and settle. Over time, standing quietly becomes the easiest answer.

This is a great setup for teaching patience, improving tying manners, and helping horses that paw, worry, pull back, or get anxious when tied solid.

**Good for:**

Young horses learning to tie
Older horses that need a safer refresher
Barn sour or buddy sour behavior
Horses that worry in cross ties or when tied to a wall

**What is included:**

Swivel post topper
Mounting hardware for a wooden post
Heavy-duty chain with link joint at the top and bull snap at the bottom
Can also be used with a regular lead rope if preferred

The weight of the chain helps keep it from wrapping and encourages the horse to stay positioned around the post.

Post is not included.

This topper can be mounted to a properly anchored wood or steel post strong enough for the size of horse and intended use. A common setup is a 14-foot post with about 4 feet in the ground and 9 to 10 feet above ground to the base of the topper.

It can also be welded to a metal post if preferred.

Have you ever started groundwork with a calm horse, only to notice that he suddenly seems more alert or jumpy?
Don’t worry, it is completely normal.

Before training, we may move our hands and walk around without asking the horse to pay much attention. Once groundwork begins, those same small movements start to mean something. A change in our posture says, “Pay attention.” A wiggle of the rope means back up. Pointing means move your feet.
Now the horse has to watch us much more closely. He is learning that tiny changes in our body language matter.

This is why sensitizing and desensitizing need to go together. We teach the horse what our body language looks like when we mean, “Move now,” but we also have to teach him what it looks like when we mean, “You can relax.”
Our job is to help him understand when to react and, just as importantly, when he can relax again.

Remember to balance your cues to move his feet with equal amounts of desensitizing.

What methods do you find make your horse more relaxed during training?

So what should you do when your horse pins his ears, lunges, bites or kicks at another horse?
Understanding why a horse reacts does not mean excusing dangerous behavior.

Your horse may be asking for more space. He may feel crowded or trapped. That explains the reaction, but it does not give him permission to take control of the situation while you are riding him. That is your job.

The first step is prevention. Pay attention before the reaction becomes big. If your horse pins an ear, stiffens his body, swishes his tail or begins watching the horse behind him, he is already telling you that tension is building.

Create more space. Move forward, move sideways or ask the rider behind you to back off. Do not wait until the horse kicks and then act surprised.

The rider of the horse behind also has a responsibility. If your horse keeps crowding another horse, do not allow him to stay there. Slow him down, circle if there is room or create enough distance that the horse ahead does not feel constantly pressured.

But what if your horse still tries to lunge, bite or kick?
Correct it immediately.

That correction does not need to come from anger, but it does need to be clear. Move his feet, redirect his attention and remind him that you control where his body goes.

I want my horse to understand that I will protect his space when possible, but I also expect him to remain under my direction.
This is something that should be practiced before joining a large group ride.

As the horse improves, add different horses and slightly more difficult situations. Each successful session teaches him that he can maintain his space without taking matters into his own teeth or heels.

Good leadership means both things are true.
We listen when the horse tells us he is uncomfortable, and we still require him to behave safely.

Does your horse become more reactive when another horse is behind him, beside him or trying to pass? What do you do when this happens?

White Steel is a 35% Poco Bueno perlino stallion whose foals consistently sell quickly, always in utero or before weaning. Every foal has sold, even with minimal advertising, which speaks volumes about the demand, quality, and consistency he produces.
15🥕🥕🥕
This is a great opportunity for a turnkey breeding program. With his proven marketability, White Steel has the potential to pay for himself in a single breeding season through foal sales alone. 100% color producer.

White Steel is healthy and fertile. He would thrive in a program set up to stand outside mares and actively promote his breeding potential.

What’s a horse lesson you learned the hard way?

Not the cute “every ride teaches us something” kind.
I mean the kind that makes you say, “well, that’s going to leave a mark” 😂

Horse people have a simple education system:
Make bad decision + Meet consequences = Become expert. 💯

Sometimes tuition is paid in dirt, blood, broken tack, and vet bills.

Social media shows the pretty ending, not the “In hindsight, I probably shouldn’t have done that” part.

So let’s hear it:
What lesson did you learn the hard way that you NEVER had to learn twice?

I’ll confess in the comments.

Do you ever let your horse play with the saddle and pad?
I like to do this with my green horses. After they bite it, sniff it and play with it, I find that they become much less wary of it.
Of course, I use an old training saddle for this purpose. 😃

Congrats to Kevin on the purchase of this beautiful saddle!

Brand new custom 16” black western trail saddle, handcrafted here in Kentucky by Amish saddle makers Eli and Jake Miller. The leather is black Wickett & Craig leather, which is a high-quality American leather known for being soft, strong, and long lasting.

This saddle has a beautiful classic look without being overdone. The black leather, hand tooling, conchos, and wide edge trim with the custom weave pattern give it just enough detail to stand out. It is sharp, but still very practical.

It was built with trail comfort in mind. It has a deep padded seat, 5” cantle, and turned stirrup leathers, which help the stirrups hang in a more natural position and can be easier on your knees during longer rides.

It is also a nice manageable weight at about 25 lbs, so it is not one of those heavy saddles you dread throwing up on a horse.

This saddle is built on a regular tree with semi-QH bars. It should be a good candidate for an average-built horse, but as always, saddle fit depends on the individual horse.

Specs:
• Seat: 16”
• Gullet: 7”
• Tree: Regular
• Bars: Semi-QH, 42° bar angle
• Bottom spread: 13”
• Cantle: 5”
• Weight: approximately 25 lbs
• Leather: Black Wickett & Craig leather
• Location: Bowling Green, KY
• Shipping available at buyer’s expense

Brand new, custom made, and ready to go. Message me if you would like more photos, measurements, or shipping information.
