ProChoice Bob Avila SantaRosa Shank DogBone Roller

This bit is ideal for horses transitioning from a snaffle to a curb bit or those that require a gentle, communicative touch. Its mild action makes it a great choice for young horses or those with sensitive mouths that need clear, soft guidance.

The copper roller is designed to encourage salivation, which helps keep the horse's mouth moist and relaxed. A moist mouth is generally more responsive and comfortable, preventing the bit from feeling dry or harsh during training sessions.

Yes, because it features shanks, it is a leverage bit. However, the short shank design provides a very mild, gradual leverage compared to longer-shanked bits, making it a softer option for riders who want control without excessive pressure.

This bit comes in a 5.5-inch size, which is the standard width for most average-sized horses. If your horse typically wears a 5-inch or 5.5-inch bit, this should fit comfortably.

Absolutely. It is specifically designed for Western riding and is well-suited for everyday training, pleasure riding, or introductory performance work where clear communication is the priority.
