Soft Touch Training Chains

06/16/2026

Well…it’s been a minute.

Some of you have been here since 2011. The page has been quiet, but the idea behind it never went away.

This spring, after losing our beloved stallion Bandolero, I found myself reflecting on the horses that have shaped this journey and the things that matter most.

That reflection inspired me to dust off an old dream that meant a lot and begin a new chapter. Humane Stud Chain is becoming Soft Touch Training Chains.

Same philosophy. New energy.

Thank you for sticking around. We’re excited to share what comes next.

Here's what people are saying about The Humane Stud Chain:

I actually used it for the first time last night, when breeding a mare, and was quite pleased with it. Armani (my 8 year old Andalusian stallion) listened well with it and seemed quite a bit more comfortable with it over his nose rather than the uncovered stud chain I've used previously. I think it's a winner!

Another happy customer and owner of our model Stallion said:

I absolutely love this chain! It is amazing and I will always use this and only this chain from now on. I have a very exuberant stallion who really thinks he's hot stuff. He is also very sensitive and regular stud chains cause more grief for us than help. I have tried numerous gadgets with no success. Until now. The Humane Stud Chain gives us just enough leverage to stay in control with out the bite. It allows us to actually communicate! Not dominate and scare! It really has been a major help for us. Thank you! Judy Rumsey and Mazarati DW

HOW MUCH IS THE SKIN ON YOUR HORSE'S NOSE WORTH?

The Humane Stud Chain was developed by stallion owners for stallion owners.

Owning or handling a stallion presents challenges not encountered with mares or geldings. Until now, a stallion's natural tendency toward aggression has often been met by equally aggressive training methods, aids, and equipment. Stallion owners and handlers who prefered a softer approach had to deal with gimmicks that often didn't hold up to the realities of day to day life with a stallion.

The Humane Stud Chain was inspired by a good - but challenging - stallion. He was very sensitive and didn't respond well to traditional stud chains but needed more than just a halter to be handled safely. Over the years, many ideas came and went before the right combination of materials was available to create a chain that was strong and effective but not harsh or painful.

And it's not just for stallions. The Humane Stud Chain works great for mares when you need a little extra control or for the assertive gelding.

Try the Humane Stud Chain and experience the difference for yourself.

PS...The Humane Stud Chain makes a great gift for your trainer, vet, or any stallion owner.
