I have the Harman muzzle, designed by Dr. Harman. It is also pricey ($85) but you can shape it to your horses individual muzzle. It also allows more air and you can open more holes for grass access if your horse can handle it. Melodie and Amelia June 2013 Chesapeake City, MD From: "efetter@...

>I use Green green Guard Muzzle. It is pricy but it has more
openings on the sides so that more air circulates . My
mare gets fewer rubs on her muzzle. I tape the holes on
the bottom. My mare adjusted to it with a minimum of hissy
fits.

If you have access to this type of muzzle, your horses could move
