Prevent escape artists from removing their halter and muzzle with the GG Equine Premium Breakaway Safety Halter! With a safety leather crown that will break under force, our halter is made from high-quality, soft-to-the-touch nylon with a felt-padded noseband and crown. The GG halter is specifically designed for use with the GreenGuard Grazing Muzzle, but can also be used with any type of muzzle that attaches to a halter. The center face strap stabilizes the halter and can be removed if desired, and the front ring on the noseband provides a spot for attaching the front muzzle strap. The unique throat latch is super adjustable to fit many different head shapes, helping to keep the halter on even the trickiest "houdini." Made in the USA.

FAQs
GG vs Standard Halters
Why did we go to the trouble of developing and designing our own halters? Because we want horses to be as comfortable as possible in them. This video outlines what sets our halter apart from traditional ones.
Measure Your Horse For a Halter
A full, step-by-step video tutorial on how to measure your horse for the correct size GG Equine Premium Breakaway Halter
What Part of the Halter is Breakaway?
The leather crownpiece is an essential part of the GG Equine Premium Breakaway Halter.
Made with real leather and lined underneath with felted wool, the crownpiece is designed to break away at around 100 lbs of pressure in the event your horse, pony, or donkey gets caught on something.
In the event that happens, we sell a leather crown replacement to get your horse back into the pasture safely.
Attach a GG Halter to a GreenGuard Muzzle
We designed and developed the GG Equine Premium Halter specifically for use with the GreenGuard Grazing Muzzle. Here are step-by-step instructions to attaching the muzzle to the halter most effficiently.
Using Tape to Prevent Halter Rubs
Even horses that don't have sensitive skin can develop rubs and bald spots from halters making contact with their faces over long periods of time. A roll of Gorilla Tape can make a big difference in mitigating or preventing halter rubs.
How to Handle Jaw Rubs
Sometimes the buckle, straps, or even the rear part of the muzzle can dig in behind a horse's jaw and cause rubbing.
This video outlines all the adjustments you can make to minimize or even prevent rubs under the jaw and behind the chin.

Can My Horse Use His Own Halter?
The GG Breakaway Halter is designed to keep escape artists from wriggling out of their halters and muzzles.
If your horse has a halter that they are comfortable in, rest easy! We have tips and tricks for adapting any halter with the GreenGuard muzzle.
Still Escaping? Try a Neck Strap or Second Throat Latch.
If your horse has a talent or a gift for pulling the halter over his head, we have a number of ideas, including using a neck strap to anchor the halter. Adding a second throat latch is another great way to prevent halter removal.
Making Mid-Season Adjustments
Spring and Summer are a long time for horse to wear a halter and muzzle combo. Time, wear, and weather pull and stretch things, especially leather. Here are some important adjustments to make as the season wears on so your horse doesn't accidentally slip out and eat the entire pasture.
Remove or Replace the Halter Clip
Need to replace the halter clip or don't like which way it is facing? You're not alone, so we made this guide to removing and/or replacing the halter clip on your horse's GG Premium Halter. Keep in mind that most safety organizations recommend that the clip opening face the horse, so it doesn’t get caught on things.
We are please with this halter and hope to be able to purchase for all the horses in our herd. It’s a good quality halter and we are pleased with both the quality and the price.
This halter does what it supposed to, my gelding got hooked up and was able to walk awY
My horse escapes all grazing muzzles. This halter has been amazing and he has not been able to get it off.
When I first introduced the muzzle to my gelding, he gave it his best effort to remove it by rolling a lot. The halter and muzzle didn’t budge. He now happily wears it, knowing it means pasture time. It was just a one day adjustment period.
I live in Kentucky and have a mustang—already a recipe for disaster come springtime in the bluegrass. He is quite the Houdini, and green guard muzzles plus the neck strap have been the only thing to consistently stay on his head while also being limiting enough to keep him from foundering! Absolutely worth the price!
