![]() Laura Bechtolsheimer works Andy (Andretti H) at home in the sunshine. Watch the video on Horse Hero. WELCOME TO THE HORSE HERO SHOP! ************************************************************************************************************************* You'll find ideal gifts for all your horsey friends and relatives on Horse Hero! ************************************************************************************************************************* In the shop you'll find DVDs of some of our videos and the training equipment used in them. Our own Horse Hero DVDs show-case the outstanding material we have filmed with Laura Bechtolsheimer and there are also DVDs made with her trainer, the world renowned Klaus Balkenhol, plus his extraordinary book. (Click on the tabs at the top of the page to get to the different sections of the shop.) Laura says, "Making videos with Horse Hero has been fun and educational for me as well as my horses. By showing the work we do with our lovely horses we aim to share our learning and experience with those who want to progress their horses in a sensitive and understanding way. Being open about our methods and the training philosophy (which I share with my father), is a key part of the videos. I hope our openness is appreciated and that by including the less than perfect moments, we can show in a more realistic way how to work through problems with horses and achieve greater harmony." Plus we stock Horse Hero clothing, designer jackets and stock pins. You can also buy a Horse Hero subscription gift voucher in the shop, which makes an ideal present for any horse-lover!

This is a beautiful piece of hand made, hand stitched leatherwork using the best quality leather, padded with calf skin and latex and offering plenty of adjustment to ensure maximum comfort for the horse during lungeing. This style of cavesson is the preferred choice of Dr Wilfried Bechtolsheimer and used by Laura in the Horse Hero lungeing video, Laura has made some refinements to the Horse Hero version (only available on this site), so that it is ultra light and easy to use. It is especially suited for use in conjunction with the Horse Hero Lungeing Rope shown in the same video.
Laura Bechtolsheimer says, “I wanted to ensure the cavesson was well padded so it can be made tight enough to prevent any pulling and shearing forces to the horse’s nose when using the rings on either side.”
Dr Bechtolsheimer says, “Care should be taken when introducing the young horse to the first steps of his education to avoid unnecessary stress. By not having to put something strange into his mouth and pulling on it when teaching him to move on a circle, he will be more co-operative and less resistant.. Combining a well fitting cavesson and a patient approach, he will learn the lungeing lesson quickly. The cavesson is also useful for work in hand and long reining later in the horse’s education.”
Horse Hero Founder, Fiona Price says, "I tried the cavesson and just love it. It feels nice and is beatifully crafted. It's feather weight, softly padded and fits very snuggly. It doesn't move at all when lungeing and as there is no central ring which can often cause unecessary movement on the horse's nose, my horse had a smile on his face too!" The Horse Hero Cavesson is available in Full Size and Extra Full, and in Black or Dark Brown. It is made especially for Horse Hero by Albion. All rings and buckles are brass coloured rather than the silver colour shown in the photos and video.
"I used my cavesson for the first time today (I also have the bit strap). My horse was so comfortable in it; it didn't move at all. It's light and beautifully padded. There's nothing like it on the market. Thanks so much!" To find out more about this product click the icons below the image.

A truly stunning jacket which looks a million dollars on or off the horse
HH0009
In Stock
The Victoria jacket is stunning! Made in England from a light-weight, hard wearing cotton, it's designed to be stylish as well as practical. The fit of this beatiful jacket can be adjusted with straps in the small of the back to give the perfect figure hugging shape. Whilst stunning to look at, it's cosy, warm and waterproof too with a trendy double breasted front and flared back. The length of the back has been cleverly lowered with equestrian riders in mind, so it's equally useable on and off the horse. It also has a soft check lining, warm moleskin pockets and a chunky button cuff which can be turned back, making it the perfect outdoor coat all year round!
Horse Hero's Fiona Price says, "I adore this coat. It is truly stunning and such a clever cut. I bought the Claudia jacket first but had to have this one as well! The Victoria is a slightly lighter weight than the Claudia, so I am equipped for all weathers!" Horse Hero customer Sue Van Den Brink said, "The Victoria jacket is just perfect, and more beautiful than I imagined. I will send you a pic from darkest Africa when is gets a bit cooler and I can wear it!"
