The Art Of Spursuasion

Made especially for the sensitive horse, or the rider with the uneducated lower leg, Spursuader provides a kind, persuasive training aid for your horse.

The spur is designed by Linda Hauck, a level 2 Equine Canadian-sanctioned coach, “The reason I developed this spur was in large part my experience riding sensitive horses, particularly Thoroughbreds. How they overreacted to a traditional spur, how some would get tense right away when they knew you were wearing a spur or watching a horse get inadvertently “spurred” by a rider with an insecure lower leg. That got me thinking that there must be another way to get our point across to the horse without offending or creating tension in that horse.”

Whether you are an experienced rider or a novice, Spursuader’s rounded edges and larger contact area will give you an excellent response from your horse without jabbing or irritating them. That means less tension, less stress, and a better rider for the both or you.

Three-time Olympian Peter Gray said, “I love the Spursuader. My two sensitive mares are so responsive to them! The design of Spursuader is gentle but so effective in getting horses going happily forward.”

Spursuader is the only spur on the market with this design. It is made of stainless steel. In the UK the Spursuader is allowed by British Dressage and The Hurlingham Polo Association.
