nose nets

[dopeesophee]

i have bought one of this for my mare... to see if it helps her stop shaking her head when ridden...

does any1 know about the regulations ie competitions on them

I use one on my exracer as he's a headshaker. I've never had any problems using one in competition, I got a letter from my vet to confirm he is a seasonal headshaker and when i enter at a competition I just tell them and show them the letter. They're legal for affiliated competitions as far as I know as long as you show a letter from a vet to certify it.

ok thanks

is it ok for dressage??

well we have the vey coming to look at her teeth soon so i will get them to write a letter

 

[cornwallexracers]

I've used it for unafilliated dressage and I'm fairly sure they are BD legal, as long as you have a letter from your vet to say that the horse requires it and you let them know when you enter it should be fine.

I use one earlier in the year but I'd be surprised if she was head shaking because on an allergy at this time of year

well she has a runny nose atm... and all the fields have just been harvested... the head shaking did seem to stop with this on though... but i am having her teeth etc checked any way just incase
