For my first foal, a Morgan, I made a soft cloth halter with Velcro. It couldn't stand a lot of pulling, like you could not lead with it. It was just for the feeling of having a halter, and it was so soft it could be left on. If his foot had gotten caught in it, it would have pulled right apart. He was so delicate at first, I couldn't put a stiff leather or itchy nylon on him.... Regarding my giant 8 year old orphan foal - she got on the trailer today first try for our first trailering trail ride of the season. We loaded another horse. We had a nice hour's ride with 3 other horses. She did not kick anybody. She did not roll. She was forward and interesting without being scary. Life is good. Valerie
