Little Horse Halter - Cob - Blue

The 'Cob' size is specifically designed for horses that fall between pony and full size. Additionally, the soft lining on the noseband and headpiece provides extra comfort, which is beneficial for horses that may be more sensitive or are still growing.

Adjust the straps on both the noseband and the headpiece until the halter is snug but not tight. You should be able to comfortably slide two fingers between the halter and your horse's head. Ensure the padding lies flat without creasing.

The 'horse appliques' are decorative elements, likely embroidered or attached patches, featuring horse designs on the halter, adding a visual touch.

While any standard lead rope can be attached, Waldhausen specifically recommends their matching lead ropes 50463.. and 50442 to complete the look and ensure compatibility with the halter's fittings.

Clean the halter using a damp cloth to wipe away dirt and sweat. For stubborn marks, a mild soap can be used, followed by rinsing with a clean damp cloth. Always allow the halter to air dry completely away from direct heat.

The description mentions soft lining on the noseband and headpiece, and solid shiny fittings. The primary material for the webbing is typically durable nylon or polypropylene, common for horse halters.

Verify that you have selected the correct size (Cob). Ensure all adjustable straps on the noseband and headpiece are correctly adjusted. If the size is fundamentally incorrect, consider if a different size (Pony or Full, if available from the manufacturer) would be more appropriate.

Check that the buckles are securely fastened. If the fittings feel stiff due to dirt or moisture, clean them with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Avoid applying oil or grease, as this can attract dirt.

Ensure the halter is not too tight. The padding should lie flat against the horse's skin. Re-adjust the straps to relieve any pressure points. Clean the padded areas if they have become soiled, as dirt can cause irritation.
