Choosing a Halter for Your Mini Horse or Pony

0316_03

Many horsemen use the Method to train their mini horses and ponies, and we often get asked if we make halters sized for equines of smaller stature. While we don’t specifically make mini or pony halters, our smaller-sized halters fit minis and ponies well. The Downunder Horsemanship Halter is available in eight sizes: newborn, foal, weanling, yearling, small, average, large and draft. Phoenix, Clinton’s mini, wears a weanling halter.

The key to finding the correct halter size for your horse or pony is to follow our halter-sizing guide that will step you through the process of measuring your horse and selecting the right halter. Like any piece of training equipment, the halter’s effectiveness is directly related to how well it fits your equine partner.

If you need help selecting the correct halter or have questions about the sizing-guide, reach out to our expert customer service representatives. You can connect with them Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. CST at 888-287-7432 or [email protected].
