Otherwise, it looks great and fits very nicely.Horse Halterhttp://kustomfithalter.wordpress.com/2014/02/12/should-you-buy-a-custom-horse-halter/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-647406862592675556.post-33726877152498882252014-01-29T23:34:40.599-07:002014-01-29T23:34:40.599-07:00I prefer a leather halter over a rope one, but I d...I prefer a leather halter over a rope one, but I don't need to spend that much on one and don't need any special effects. I use just a plain leather halter that I have used for three horses over almost 20 years.Pink Horse Halterhttp://www.kustomfithalters.com/horse-halters-c-1_2/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-647406862592675556.post-71983817725234294752013-03-05T16:33:32.893-07:002013-03-05T16:33:32.893-07:00Yes.

The fixed chin means there are no unsightly buckles interfering with the ring that the lead clips to. <br /><br />Maybe the idea with the huge halters is that they will fit all sizes of horses? I have no idea. It does look sloppy. :) A fitted leather halter is a lovely thing.

I guess as long as you get the right size halter it doesn't matter? <br /><br />(And speaking of nosebands, I've never understood why the KY breeders put their mares and stallions in halters with such oversized, huge nosebands. I was taught that was a no-no because a horse could put a foot through it. Any idea?)RiderWriterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05679157278313699794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-647406862592675556.post-91174535020419832132013-03-05T15:57:59.804-07:002013-03-05T15:57:59.804-07:00Hi - New reader here, and I should have come soone...Hi - New reader here, and I should have come sooner! I have seen your comments elsewhere (Eventer79's blog) but didn't know how much fun I'd have checking out your place.<br /><br />I do not have my own horse. Never have, but hopefully someday there will be an OTTB in my life. And what is the very first thing I plan to buy him??? A really nice leather halter. So this post is terrific! I don't understand why people have nice horses and then throw some fuzzy, filthy piece o' junk nylon halter on them. Seems to me a small (and safer!) thing we can do to distinguish our precious beasts.<br /><br />I always look at leather halters in the Dover catalog and elsewhere and fantasize over what I'd get, but these Danzigs look much better. Yeah, their website is horrible so I would definitely call them. :-) In the meantime, I might just get the fancy dog collar I've always wanted for my "mini-horse" Springer Spaniel. She's 10 but it's not too late! :-)RiderWriterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05679157278313699794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-647406862592675556.post-37224330847621721502012-06-19T13:01:27.936-06:002012-06-19T13:01:27.936-06:00Yay so glad you got another one for Mr Sexy Pants....Yay so glad you got another one for Mr Sexy Pants. Lucy destroyed her leather halter last month and I sent it back to be fixed - it was repaired, cleaned, and returned to me within 2 weeks.

I keep having fantasies about leather halters with brass nameplates for each of our horses, but with four of them, I can't justify the $$$ when we have perfectly serviceable (if boring and ugly) nylon halters for them now. <br /><br />Maybe some day!jenjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01737679332792618499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-647406862592675556.post-10571117683739111212012-06-17T07:04:11.074-06:002012-06-17T07:04:11.074-06:00HHHMMM wonder if he will post to Australia!!!!!!HHHMMM wonder if he will post to Australia!!!!!!Ninahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02632143091614116055noreply@blogger.com
