Whether you're starting a colt or polishing a performance horse, the stable feel of the Dee-ring provides the clear lateral signals needed for precision work in the arena or out on the ranch.

Why Riders Choose the Toklat Wes Dee

• Encourages Salivation: The sweet iron mouthpiece with copper inlays is designed to oxidize, creating a sweet taste that keeps your horse’s mouth moist and receptive.
• Enhanced Lateral Guidance: The 3 1/8" Western Dee cheek prevents the bit from being pulled through the mouth, providing clear steering cues for young or green horses.
• Professional Show Appearance: The striking black finish accented with German silver trim offers an "antique" look that stands out in Western Pleasure and Ranch Riding classes.
• Stable and Comfortable Fit: The fixed Dee-ring design minimizes pinching at the corners of the lips, ensuring a steady and predictable feel for the horse.

Best For

Western performance riders and trainers looking for a high-quality, show-legal snaffle that promotes a soft mouth and provides clear lateral communication.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Why is the mouthpiece on my Toklat Wes bit changing color?

That is exactly what it's supposed to do! The sweet iron is designed to oxidize (rust), which creates a sweet taste horses find palatable, encouraging them to salivate and stay soft in the bridle.

Q: Is this bit legal for Western show disciplines?

Yes, the Toklat Wes 3 1/8 Dee is a popular choice for Western Pleasure, Reining, and Ranch Riding, particularly for junior horses where a snaffle is permitted under association rules.

Q: How do I know if a 5-inch mouth will fit my horse?

A 5-inch mouth is the standard size for most horses. To ensure a proper fit, measure the distance between the corners of your horse's lips and add about 1/4 inch to prevent the Dee-rings from pressing too tightly against the cheeks.
