Beatrix Potter's cozy cottage has been left unchanged for 100 years
Hadn’t bought new martingales in a year and a half. Thought I better fix that
Martingales & Breastplates
Breastplates or martingales are horse equipment that can be used together or separately. Breastplates keep the saddle from slipping back while you are riding. Martingales will keep the horse from tossing its head. Breastplates and martingales can come in a variety of leather types. These include flat leather, plain raised, fancy stitched or braided. https://tack24.co.uk/collections/martingales-breastplates
These two are Stylin' and Profilin in their new Pit Bull Gear. Thanks for sharing Amy! #pitbullgear #designerdogcollars #designerleashes #martingales https://www.instagram.com/p/B-pB1XEjrgK/?igshid=11nigksf68ma5
Martingales
Standing Martingale
Keep horse from raising head to high (2).
Some horses learn to lean on them though (2).
Much more restrictive than standing martingale (2).
Do not use with a drop, flash, or figure 8 noseband (3).
Running Martingale
Used to keep a horse from raising their head above the bit (1)
It uses leverage to encourage a horse to bring their head down (1)
Unlike a standing martingale, allows rider to give horse their head should the stumble or need full use of their head (1)
Make sure you use rein stops to keep the martingale from getting caught in the bit (1)
Good for strong and/or green horses
Doesn’t encourage a horse to lean on them like a standing martingale (2)
Make sure it’s adjusted properly. Too loose and it’s useless. Too tight and there is constant pressure on the bars of the mouth
When properly adjusted, the running martingale should not be applying pressure when the horse’s head is in the right position (3).
