I just got a beautiful beaded breast collar and was so sad that it just drooped on my horses body and interfered with her shoulder movement-no matter how I tightened or loosened the adjustments-nothing worked. I thought I was going to have to send it back because it was so ill fitting! Then I saw the video John made about this breast collar strap and thought I should give it a try! So glad I did! It lifts the breast collar up closer to her neck so now the shoulders are free! Also, when we go out on the trail, I like her to be able to eat grass and this strap does not bind when she eats and it allows the collar to sit high enough so that it doesn’t cut into her chest when she has her head down grazing. It also matches the color of my saddle perfectly! It's a brilliant solution to a problem that I'm sure so many western riders have with their breast collars! Thanks to John, now I can keep this lovely breast collar and Lucy is really comfortable!
