Miss Mare, in her summer glory, is really prone to rubs on her face from halters. Due to limitations of the facility we are at, taking halters off for turn-out is not an option (it’s my preferred answer but unfortunately not a choice right now).
Her prior halter is a leather halter in good condition (cleaned & conditioned frequently to be supple) and that’s what’s caused the rubs, so onto fleece lined halters it is. It needs fleece at the poll and on the cheek pieces, nose is optional.
What are people’s favorites? it must have a break-away piece so the lemieux halter isn’t an option (unless there’s a model other than the vogue, which is the one I keep finding)
I’ve had the centaur fleece lined breakaway halter but I’m not a huge fan of that clip (it’s a claw you leverage open rather than a standard snap).
