Scientists are keen to find out how to induce and measure contentment and pleasure in equines — and new research could be a stepping stone towards that discovery.

Recent research found that horses exposed to the same pleasurable stimulus — high value food, wither scratches, positive reinforcement training and a companion — showed different levels of pleasure, based on their personalities and previous experience.

“This study is relevant in the current climate where social license to operate has become a significant factor within the equine industry, within which equine welfare is being scrutinised, especially within the competitive sphere,” the researchers wrote.

The field of equitation science first emerged as a discipline in 2006 to combine learning theory, biomechanics and ethology to examine the salience and efficacy of more traditional horse training techniques.

As the welfare of horses in sports and the future of these sports are continuously scrutinised, equitation science holds great promise in providing a clear, systematic and sustainable approach to horse training, based on the principles of learning theory.

Put simply, equitation science prioritises how the horse learns and, in doing so, it aims to inform and improve horse-human interactions both in hand and under saddle.

Stronger Bits: Think Before You Switch 🐴 In the second part of her series on bitting for jumping, Bit Right - Equine Bit Fitting's Fiona Dearing explains how different cheekpieces work — including the Wilkie, Universal, Kimblewick, Pelham and Dutch Gag — and just how much pressure they can apply.

You might be surprised.

Before reaching for a stronger bit, it's important to ask why you're making the change — and to understand exactly how each component works. More pressure doesn’t always mean better control, and some designs demand experienced hands to use safely and fairly.

A good number of the problems that beset horses have to do with their muscles, ligaments, tendons, bones, etc.  Rather than write all that out (and don’t forget joints and cartilage and associated tissues), we (anatomists, veterinarians, biologists, and the like) term the whole problematic - but ...
