Description
Shires Greenguard Grazing Muzzles are a simple solution to reducing grass intake. Designed with vets for effective grazing management, it is ideal for horses that are prone to excess weight gain, laminitis and other weight-related conditions. The Greenguard muzzle allows unrestricted breathing and drinking, is easy to attach and adjust, is highly durable and is UV resistant. It enables a natural, little and often grazing habit. Unlike some other grazing muzzles, it will help keep your horse comfortable without sweating. The Greenguard muzzle is made from safe, pliable food-grade material.
The Greenguard headcollar is not included and needs to be ordered separately - click here.
Available in sizes Pony, Cob and Full.
Please note, as of summer 2021 the Pony size Greenguard Muzzle has changed the design slightly - it now has open corners to prevent pinching. This design change will not affect the use of the muzzle.
Size Guide:
Greenguard size their muzzles based on the horse's bit size - Full/Large - 5 - 6" bit size - to suit horses which generally take a full size - sports horses, warmbloods, Thoroughbreds, etc
Cob/Medium - 4.25 - 4.75" bit size - to suit horses/ponies which generally take cob size - larger native ponies, cobs, etc
Pony/Small - 3.5 - 4" bit size - to suit smaller ponies which generally take pony size - Welsh ponies, standard Shetlands, etc
Please read our fitting instructions guide here.
It is advised that the muzzle fits into your horse's water source before use, and you should reduce the risk of your horse having anything to catch the muzzle on in the field as much as possible. The muzzle straps are designed to break away for safety purposes.
All grazing muzzles pose some risk of teeth wear due to the fact the horse's teeth may rub against the interior surface of the muzzle. Reduce the risk by regularly washing the muzzle to remove dirt and sand. Check your horse's front teeth on a weekly basis - if there are any signs of abnormal wear, discontinue use.
