Veteran Posts: 101	I purchased a mare this summer and she’s the nervous/always wanting to move forward type. When I first got her I noticed she CONSTANTLY was chomping on her bit while riding doesn’t matter what bit I’ve got on her she’s always chomping. Now she’s started chewing and sticking her tongue out to one side while riding. I’ve had her teeth checked recently and they were fine, anyone have any ideas??
