One of my 2 horses has to wear a headcollar out in the field as he is such a toad to catch (eg 25 mins in the pouring rain this evening, but that's another story....).
He is wearing one of those Aerborn fieldsafe ones with the rubber breakable rings.
Twice I have gone out to check them and found him with the noseband in his mouth like a bit
but couldn't work out how it had happened. The headcollar is well adjusted and you have to take it off to get it out of his mouth so not easy to see how he could do it.
Tonight I found out... My other horse sidled up and grabbed it in her mouth, pulls it really hard so the rubber rings are stretched to the max and then let's go! Sometimes it smacks him hard on the nose, sometimes she gets the angle right, like tonight, and it smacks him in the gob.
Poor old boy he looks so p*ssed off standing there! I wondered why he was getting 'headshy' about his headcollar!
Very funny to watch though!
she looked so pleased with herself and cantered off fly bucking after she had done it
I think its revenge for all the bites he does on her poor old bum!
