Troubleshooting
Headcollar seems too large or too small.
Refer to the size guide (Small for Large Pony, Medium for Cob, Large for Full) and ensure the adjustable straps are correctly positioned for your horse's specific measurements.
Brass hardware is tarnished.
Gently polish the brass clips and throat lash clip with a soft cloth and a dedicated brass cleaner. Avoid abrasive materials.
Horse rubbing or showing discomfort.
Check the fit; ensure the headcollar is not too tight. Verify that the padding is correctly positioned and clean. If discomfort persists, consult a veterinarian or experienced equestrian professional.
Nylon material appears worn after use.
Inspect for excessive fraying, especially if your horse tends to chew on tack. For normal wear and tear, continue with recommended care. If damage is significant, consider replacement.
