The Dually Training Halter, designed by Monty Roberts
Includes a 'How to use the Dually Halter' DVD
Monty was originally looking to design an effective training halter for leading and loading that was also humane, practical and easy for anyone to use. He wanted something that did NOT use excessive poll pressure which can cause soreness and rearing – meaning he wanted a material with quality flat surfaces and not rope.
Meanwhile, Kelly Marks was feeling uncomfortable using bits on starting horses and ‘horses with problems’ and was experimenting with long lining and riding with just a headcollar with two rings fitted each side on which to attach reins. This worked pretty well except the headcollar would keep slipping around the horses face………. Hmmmm so what to do?
Hurrah! Monty had now designed "The Dually" named after his old horse Dually because it was originally dual purpose – (although now really multi purpose but it’s a bit late to change the name).
A unique design with an adjustable double noseband, high quality brass hardware, double stitched nylon and left and right side ring designed especially for schooling.
Suits most horses for long lining and starting and some horses for riding, when it is felt a bit isn't needed.
It can be used as a normal headcollar for tying up and comes with a free DVD ‘How to Use the Dually Halter’.
Please beware of inferior imitations!
Sizes come up quite large but there are plenty of holes for good adjustability. Sizes are colour-coded:
The small (red) would fit a 13 hh pony going up to a 15.2 hh with a smaller head. (The cheek pieces could be altered by a saddler for smaller ponies).
The medium (black) would fit from 14 hh Big Head to a finer 16.2 hh
The large (blue) is LARGE!
