Welcome! Goodness, we're getting a collection of Jennifers on here!lol. My gelding came out of the womb nipping, so I definitely understand! As strange and icky as it may sound, I got him under control by spitting on his nose. I had tried EVERYTHING! None of it worked, so when a friend suggested it I said,"why not?" Wonder of wonders it worked! It simulates a dominant horse snorting on them, and gets your scent in the nostrils. Now, if Jackson goes to nip I spit and he stops cold. You don't have to really let loose on them, just a little bit and it worked wonders w/Jack. Call me crazy if you like, but I was tired of my arms and legs being covered in bruises!lol
