Reviews
Emily Sanders
“I’ve been riding young and sensitive horses for over a decade, and switching to Happy Mouth Bits was a game-changer. My 5-year-old mare immediately accepted the bit and started chewing and relaxing within minutes. The apple flavor is subtle but effective, and the polymer material feels soft yet durable. Even during long training sessions, she shows less resistance, and I’ve noticed fewer head tosses. Highly recommend for anyone struggling with sensitive mouths!”

“As a competitive dressage rider, I need precision without discomfort. The Baucher and Mullen Mouth models from Happy Mouth have transformed my rides. My horse responds more willingly to subtle cues, and I’ve noticed improved relaxation in his jaw and neck. The combination of a steel core and soft polymer mouthpiece ensures durability without compromising softness. Truly a thoughtful design that makes a noticeable difference.”
Sophie Williams
“I manage a riding school with a variety of horses, many of whom are still learning to accept a bit. Happy Mouth Bits have been a lifesaver. The mix of loose ring snaffles and Pelhams work beautifully, even for horses that used to fight the bit. The apple flavor encourages chewing, and the synthetic material seems much gentler than traditional metal. Parents and riders alike have commented on how calm and happy the horses appear. Definitely worth the investment!”
Happy Mouth FAQ
What makes Happy Mouth bits different from regular metal bits?
Happy Mouth bits use a soft, non-toxic polymer mouthpiece (sometimes with an apple scent) that encourages salivation and reduces harsh pressure, while a steel core ensures durability.
Are Happy Mouth bits suitable for horses with sensitive mouths?
Yes — their flexible polymer construction, gentle shape, and mild flavour make them ideal for horses that dislike traditional metal bits or have tender mouths.
Will a Happy Mouth bit last, or will my horse chew through it?
Some horses do chew their Happy Mouth bits, so it’s important to monitor wear; while the polymer is soft and comfortable, it’s not indestructible.
What types of mouthpieces are available in the Happy Mouth range?
They offer a wide variety — from single- and double-jointed snaffles to mullen mouth, full cheek, gag, Pelham, and copper-roller bits.
Can I use Happy Mouth bits in competition?
That depends on your discipline; many Happy Mouth bits (like certain snaffles) are legal, but it’s important to check the specific rules of your governing body.
Do Happy Mouth bits help with bit acceptance in young horses?
Yes — the gentle feel and flavour often help youngsters accept the bit more readily, reducing stress when learning.
How do I choose the right Happy Mouth bit for my horse?
Consider your horse’s sensitivity, mouth shape, tone, and what work you’re doing; bit‑fitter guidance or trying a few designs can help find the best match.
