Usage tips

Positioning the muzzle:

The Greenguard logo should face you. There should be 3 slots facing you.

Attaching the 4 straps:

On a Greenguard Halter:

Attach the front strap to the halter ring.

Attach the bottom strap to the noseband (not to the ring).

Attach the 2 side straps so that the strap/noseband angle is a right angle.

On a regular halter:

Attach the front strap by passing it around the noseband (tighten with a piece of tape).

Attach the bottom strap to the noseband (not to the ring).

Attach the 2 side straps so that the strap/noseband angle is a right angle.

Adjusting the straps:

Adjust the straps to ensure there is a 3 cm gap between the mouth and the bottom of the muzzle (1.5 cm for Shetland muzzles). The muzzle should be free to move independently of the halter.

Adjusting the angle:

Adjust the straps so that the mouth and the bottom of the muzzle are parallel.

Choosing the right muzzle size:

• Bit size between 125 and 150 mm: Horse size
• Bit size between 110 and 120 mm: Cob size
• Bit size between 90 and 105 mm: Shetland size

If you are unsure between two sizes, choose the larger one to ensure better comfort for your pony. Note that the Shetland muzzle is small. For ponies measuring less than one meter at the withers but with a thick nose, choose the larger size. Similarly, the double pony muzzle size is small. For ponies measuring more than 1.45 meters at the withers, choose the horse size.
