Head Tossing

Watch John Lyons video to learn his tried and tested method for reforming a head tosser.

Head Tossing

Q: My horse tosses his head constantly. I had the veterinarian out, and she says his teeth are fine. I even asked a trainer to help me find a comfortable bit and adjust my horse’s headstall, but he still tosses his head. Help!

OMG!!!! JL video on horsechannel! So exciting. This was a great little segment. I just love Johns teaching methods so easy for the green rider to underastand. As a professional trainer I still find lots of great advice here on the horsechannel.
