I got it off ebay, as part of a set that included a add-on bridle.  She's 
checking to get a price on the halter alone, both in horse size and cob size. 
Mine is arab/cob sized.  Here's the one I got:  http://tinyurl.com/2zptbl  It 
has an adjustable noseband and chin.  Melnir has a smallish head as Icelandic's 
go, and the nose is let out as far as it will go. 

Melnir is doing so well on the trail that I may put him in the sidepull on the 
trail, and save the bit for the fine-tuning stuff.

I like that Karen.  Where did you get it?  I'm looking for something
other than a rope halter under Gusti's bridle.

 Wow.  I thought it was leather at first.  What is the point of
biothane. I know it is washable.

It's washable, and it doesn't fade and deteriorate like nylon.  Mainly I
wanted a narrower halter that would fit under a bridle with less bulk, and
I'm not 100% a fan of rope halters - they're ok, but they have some
downsides too.


>>> He looks s handsome.

Thanks - I think he's looking very GQ in these pictures!  :)

So, where is your Dagur now, and when do you expect him...?  I know you're
excited!
