It is best for owners of miniature Shetlands, foals and very small youngsters who find standard pony headcollars far too big for everyday leading, tying up and grooming.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBecause the halter adjusts at several points, the noseband and headpiece can be set to suit an individual head shape rather than relying on one fixed fit. That makes it a practical choice for growing youngsters and for fine-headed miniatures.
