Muzzled my greedy chubby Welsh D this week and I felt so mean - he gave me such an upset look. It's for the greater good, I'd feel much worse if he ended up with lami or colic.
Anyway, he's usually really clever when it comes to food related matters (very good at treat balls, finding things in hay etc) but he's not understanding or figuring out how to eat through his muzzle - just is frustrated and wipes his nose on the floor and stands looking depressed. It's fitted properly and is the right size so it's not a fitting problem - just a pony brain meltdown one!
How long did it take your horses to get to grips with nibbling grass through their muzzle?
