Custom Leather Foal Slip Halter with Engraved Nameplate
We introduce to you - the perfect first halter for every young foal!
The custom engraved nameplate is the tasteful touch that makes this halter personal and special for every new addition you or a gift recipient is expecting.
Available in black or brown leather, complete with the custom nameplate installed on the left cheek. The nameplate will be silver to match the hardware.
This leather foal halter is great for teaching the foal to lead - pressure is applied to the nose and poll areas when the foal balks - encouraging it to move forward.
The figure 8 style is favored by many for its adjustability to fit a newborn foal. The design makes it possible to fit the halter close to the foal's head - making it possible to fit the halter snugly enough to prevent the foal from getting a foot hung up on it without making it tight around any part of the foal's rapidly growing head.
The adjustable crown and noseband allow the halter to grow with the foal over time. The halter is riveted for safety so it will break if necessary.
Safety should be the top consideration when selecting a halter for a young foal.
Soft, smooth leather is the ideal material for a foal's first halter as the leather halter will break under great pressure. It is important to avoid nylon, which will not break if it gets caught on something, putting the foal in danger of getting injured.
The grab strap can help with catching a frisky foal. This strap can be trimmed down or eliminated once the foal has become accustomed to handling. This will prevent the strap from swinging around and potentially hitting the foal in the head or eyes.
* This halter is never to be used when the foal is tied *
