Stop the head tossing and resistance by giving your young horse the tongue relief they crave for a truly willing partnership. The Myler Pony Dee Snaffle Bit replaces the harsh "nutcracker" action of traditional bits with an ergonomically curved design that fosters immediate relaxation and clear communication.

Engineered with Myler’s signature Level 1 philosophy, this bit is crafted to support a green horse’s transition into consistent contact and soft obedience. The innovative mouthpiece features Independent Side Movement (ISM), allowing you to isolate one side of the bit for precise bending and lifting without disturbing the opposite side, while the integrated copper inlays naturally encourage salivation and a relaxed, supple jaw.

Key Features & Specifications:

• Level 1 Mouthpiece Engineering: Utilizes a curved MB 01 or MB 06 design that distributes pressure evenly across the tongue rather than the bars, eliminating the painful pinching common in standard snaffles.
• Pony-Proportional Dimensions: Specifically scaled for smaller faces with compact 3-inch Dee rings and available in widths ranging from 4.25" to 4.75" to ensure a perfect, non-overwhelming fit.
• Independent Side Movement (ISM): Enables the rider to give clear, one-sided cues, making it easier for young horses to learn how to bend, balance, and stay between the aids.
• Fixed Dee Ring Stability: The stable cheekpiece prevents the bit from sliding through the mouth, providing direct lateral pressure and clearer directional cues for schooling.
• Copper Inlay Mouthpiece: High-quality copper inlays promote salivation and a "sweet" taste, encouraging the horse to soften their mouth and accept the bit more readily.
• Dressage Legal Compliance: The MB 01 and MB 06 designs (without hooks) are USEF and FEI Dressage legal, allowing you to train and compete with the same consistent feel.
• Precision Myler Fit: Engineered to run approximately 1/8" larger than advertised to accommodate the "1/8-inch rule," ensuring 1/8" to 1/4" of the bit shows on each side for optimal comfort.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: Is this bit suitable for a horse just starting its training?
A: Absolutely. This is a Level 1 bit specifically designed for green horses learning basic transitions and obedience. It focuses on maximum tongue relief and comfort to build a foundation of trust and bit acceptance from day one.

Q: How do I ensure I am ordering the correct size for my pony?
A: Measure your pony's mouth from lip corner to lip corner. Myler bits are designed to have 1/8" to 1/4" of the mouthpiece visible on each side; because Myler bits run about 1/8" larger than their stated size, they naturally provide that extra room for a pinch-free fit.
