FAQs
Is this muzzle suitable for all horse sizes?
The Waldhausen Muzzle comes in various sizes, including Pony, Full, and X-Full, to accommodate different breeds and head sizes.
Can my horse drink water while wearing the muzzle?
Yes, the open-design of the muzzle allows the horse to drink water freely while still restricting the amount of grass intake.
How often should I check the fit?
It is recommended to check the fit daily to ensure the horse is comfortable and that the muzzle has not shifted.
Is the muzzle machine washable?
Hand washing is recommended to preserve the longevity of the padding and the structural integrity of the nylon straps.
Does it contain rubber inserts?
No, this specific model is designed without rubber inserts for a more lightweight and breathable experience.
Troubleshooting
The muzzle rubs against the horse's face
Check the fit of the headpiece; it may be too tight or improperly positioned. Ensure the padding is flat against the skin.
The muzzle comes off during turnout
Verify that the headpiece is snug enough to prevent the horse from rubbing it off against fences or trees.
The touch tape fastener is losing grip
Clean the hook and loop material of any debris, hair, or mud to restore its original fastening strength.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the Waldhausen Muzzle, begin by loosening the headpiece straps completely. Place the muzzle over the horse's nose and adjust the headpiece until the muzzle sits comfortably without pressing tightly against the nostrils. Ensure the touch tape safety fastener on the neck strap is secure but can still be released under tension. Regularly check the muzzle for signs of wear or damage. To clean, hand wash the nylon using a mild soap and cold water; allow it to air dry completely in a shaded area to maintain the integrity of the material and the padding.
