HALTERS

These pictures were sent to me by a customer that was very thrilled with our halters as this 1,200lb+ 15.1 hand 4 year old named Cowboy gave it a test. He was a known felon of breaking halters and leads. My converstion on the phone with Mike, revealed that after a couple of tries Cowboy now stands with his head over the hitch rail when tied. Thank You for the quick thinking to get these pictures Mike and Pat.

Anyone wanting to relive this tale or ask questions are free to contact Mike at novinger@hotmail.com, he would love to tell you about Cowboy and our halters!

I love the new halter and lead. This is a very spoiled 4 year old, 1400 pd's 15 hands. My son bought her as a 6 month old never touched baby. Two weeks later was 9-11 and he left her with me and went into the military. I have made a pet out of her and she refused to be tied. She was a master at breaking halters. I had bought the best. She gave her all to yours and finally gave up. Thanks for a Great Halter. I will be getting back with you for another of a different color. Thanks Again. Kathy


I just wanted to let you know that my new halter arrived this morning, it looks great can't wait to see it on my new foal when he arrives in Sept. thanks again for another wonderful halter. Thanx, Jennifer

Your halters really are top-notch. Thanks! Jen

I received the halter, it's great! It is beautiful. My friend is going to love it! Thank you so much! Best Wishes, Joan

I received my halters today, you are really outstanding to do business with, really nice halter!!! Hope to do business again!!!!
Thanks Lisa

I love the halter. It is awesome. I had e-mail problems so I may have accidentally e-mailed twice. It may have sounded like I was nagging, sorry. I am so happy with the halter. I may have to get another when she outgrows this one. I love the color, it's great!!! Renee

Hello there!! I really love your halter and wish that I would of order more then just one....do you send your items overseas too? Because im German and have friends who would love to get them too, thanks again!!!! Claudia

I wanted to let you know that your halters stand up to what you say they do. I bought a 2 yr old Medicine Hat Tobiano Colt and he had never been in a trailer before yesterday and the halter that I got from you a couple of months ago did it's job. He weighs about 800 lbs and we struggled with him for over two hours to get him into the trailer and not once did the halter faulter on us and finally we got him into the trailer and tied him up and the halter never showed any wear on it other than we had to retie it on him three times since the knot stretch out. GREAT PRODUCT AND WELL WORTH THE MONEY. Keep selling those great products. Beth

Oh wow, they are wonderful, I just love them, thanks ...Annette

Halters arrived! They are beautifully done -- I've bought other halters in the same style that were very poorly tied and finished - I love your halters and plan on buying more later on!! Thanks for the great service!! Jackie

I received my rope halters last night!!! I can't believe how nice they are!!! You could easily sell them for 3x what you're getting! I'll be keeping an eye out and will more than likely buy more later on, they would come in handy to have as an extra halter in the barn, on the fence, etc.!!! Thanks again!!! Michelle

Hi this is Sheena. I got the 2 weanling rope halters, they are perfect. I am more than happy with them. Thank you for showing such care and concern, I appreciate it. Sincerely, Sheena

They came in today, just in time for the foals to arrive tomorrow afternoon!! Thanks so much for your discount and speedy shipment!! We will definitely keep you in mind for future needs (I am looking at your Haltamore, personally ;o) thanks so much!!
Michelle

I have received the halter and lead!! It is great!! Thanks very much!! :-) Sharon

I love my rope halter. I have a weanling colt that this is going to be the ticket to getting him lighter than on his nylon web halter. He will be responding to feather light cues in no time. I am happy to finally get this tool in my hands. Also he is a palomino and the purple looks real spiffy! Lisa

Hi, I got the halter and it fits great! I am really happy with it and you have been very helpful. Thank you!!! Lori

Just to let you know that your rope halters came in the mail the other day. They are wonderful and I cannot wait for my foals to come on the ground this spring! Thanks! Erin

Received them and I am extremely pleased. Great workmanship. Mitzi

Keitha! I got the halter in yesterday's mail!!! It's gorgeous! No surprise there! As always, I am impressed by the workmanship and quality
of each item that I have purchased from you! Thank you so very much!! Pamela

Just wanted to let you know, we got the halter. It fits the Percheron perfectly!! Thank you so much for your patience... I'll keep you in mind for future purchases. Thanks again, Jeannie

Did I tell you I got the halter and JUST LOVE IT. You just do an amazing job - that halter couldn't be better and the quality is so great. I am one happy customer and I imagine I will be buying again from you...

I received my halter and love it , it is soft and pliable enough that it doesn't rub a bald spot on my mules face where the knots are. I have store bought ones that I can't use for that reason. Thanks, it's perfect! Leslie

I am very impressed with the quick delivery of my order. Everything came in yesterday! The halter is a perfect fit and looks good on my mare, I
haven't tried the haltamore on, but I am sure it will fit good, also. I am very satisfied with the quality of all three products. Thanks again for everything and I hope all of your customers are as satisified as I am! Keep up the good work.
Sincerely, Janet and Princess

Dear Keitha, Thanks again so much for the halter you made for me. It fits "Hero" perfectly, and so far he has been like a lamb to lead.
I will certainly contact you when I need another ropehalter in the future. Thanks !Sincerely, Sherry

Thank you. I received the halter on Saturday and Iam very pleased with your product. My horse loves not having on that heavy halter on him anymore. I am very satisfied with it. Great colors too. It matches him so well. I am thinking that later on in the year i am going to have to order another one when he gets to big for this one. Thanks again for the great halter. Couldn't of received a better one. Jennifer

I just wanted to drop you a line & let you know that I received the halters today. I can't begin to say how much I like these halters. They are soooo handy. I have an oversized 2 year old that I show in halter (15.3 - 1150#). For some reason he had taken to really setting back on the halters and breaking them at the shows. He's now worn the one that I purchased from you earlier to about three shows now and that nasty little behavior has stopped after about 3 attempts. The cool thing is that they don't break & it makes him learn to give to the pressure. I especially like your halters. They are so much nicer that the ones that I had purchased several years ago. Those were just so stiff & hard to work with. These are great! Thanks for making such a wonderful product. Kelly

I received my package today. Thank you for your quick response in getting them to me. I have used Clinton Anderson's halters before and
the ones I received from you are of the highest quality. Thank you for everything and it has been a pleasure doing business with you. Tracy

Hi Keitha, I received the halters today. They are incredibly nice. Not only were mine worn out, but we bought two new horses and didn't have rope halters for them. I wish the feedback column were larger for great sellers like you. Thanks for a great item at a great price. Take care, Teresa

Thank you for sending the halter and lead, and the hackamore. I like them very much and will work very well with my natural horsemanship training. Great quality and a lot less expensive. Thank you again. I will order from you again. Nance

We've been using your knotted halter on a severely spoiled 3 year old, I've never had any equipment that worked this well! Thank you! Edward

You have the best equipment going and my Amish friend plans on ordering some things also and maybe some of his friends also. Kelsterhorses

Hi, just wanted to let you know that I received the rope halters today, they are beautiful. You do an excellent job!! Thanks again! Anita

WOW!!! THEY ARE AWESOME!! THANK YOU SOOOO VERY MUCH!! When I opened the package I could not beleive it!! Thanks for the extras too thats sooo wonderful!! Anybody needs to purchase halters I will be sending them your way!! I love all the colors!! I just can't say thank you enough!! These are by far the best quality halters I have ever come across!! No comparison!! Thanks again!!!! And will be back for more for sure!!!Talk to you soon!! Thanks for such awesome product. Jen

I got the halter/lead on Saturday. It is absolutely fantastic! You did such a great job! I really appreciate it and will recommend you highly. You should go to the horse expo up here in the fall, you would sell so many items. Thanks again, Pia

Your halters are the best I have found and the closest to what all the "natural" trainers are using! Thanks for making a great product! Jen

Keitha, My husband was amazed how well Magic responds to your halter. (extra knots on nose band) I will work on getting a picture in it and send it to you. Thanks again, Carrie


HALTAMORES

Hi Keitha, I received my rope halters last night!!! I can't believe how nice they are!!! You could easily sell them for 3x what you're getting! I'll be keeping an eye out and will more than likely buy more later on, they would come in handy to have as an extra halter in the barn, on the fence, etc!!! Thanks again!!!

Hi. I received the haltamore in yesterday's mail and got a chance to use it today. I love it and my horse loves it too! No more cold bits in winter! Thanks a lot, Patty.

I am extremely pleased with the "haltamore" that I bought from you! How did you know that green was my favorite color? I love it! The "haltamore" is so beautiful that any horse person would be proud to show it off! Your shipping was SUPER fast!
Thanks a million! Jessica

I received the Haltamore in the mail today and LOVE IT. My husband like it too and said he wants to try it on his horse. If it works good on his horse and mine we will probably be buying another one. Thanks again for everything. Mike and Carrie

I received the halter and lead. The halter fits great. I'm really pleased with the way the tie end is finished so that the two pieces stay together. The lead rope is exactly as described. I'm really happy with the quality of the rope used. I looked at a lot of different rope halters and yours were made of the highest quality rope. A lot of others are making them from rope that isn't even close to strong enough to hold a horse. Thanks for all the great communication! I really think those knots in the noseband make a difference. Marge

Hi Keitha, the halters are wonderful! I like the size and stiffness (light, not real stiff). The smallest looks adorable on the baby, and is so nice not to have all the buckles and weight of a regular nylon. Thank you! Bonnie

Keitha, I received my halters today. So glad I got the next size up. The foal size was just a bit too small on him. Black one has a little growing room in it. I will just keep the small one. We are expecting a new baby in the spring so he will be able to use it. From the little time I had it on Magic I could tell that it just might do the trick. He was very responsive. Did take him to a little show this weekend. His first. He placed third out of ten. He was so good. Maybe the show in two weeks he will knock them dead. Ha! Anyway that you so much for you attention. I will let you know more of his progress when I have a chance to use the halter more. Thanks, Carrie


SIDE PULLS

I got it yesterday and tried it out too. Had a older gelding that I am fostering for a rescue group....He was broke young and then just left to run in a pasture with his mom the last 15 years. I rode him with my other sidepull on Monday and actually rubbed a little abrasion on his nose because he is so goey. Well, I rode him with yours yesterday....and I know that he rode better because it was the second day we rode, however, the difference in control was incredible! For some reason I can just pick up the reins and he moves his head the right direction? (I just have to get his body to follow, he is stiff) Anyway I really like it! Its raining for the next few days so I won't be able to try it out on my others, but looking forward to it.... will tell you how it goes on the other horses, will probably order one for the quarter horses. Thanks so much for doing this! It really works! ( no rubbing on the nose either)! Amy

Hi, seems this is the quickest way to contact you. Love the side pull. I'm going to use this under a snaffle bridle and hopefully this touchy mare will take confidence, as she has had rope halter ground work, the 7 games being used on her for the last 6 or 7 months, she still is lacking security in directions coming from the snaffle bit. Thanks Fay

Sorry I haven't gotten back to you about the results with the new bridle. It works great, my horse is much more relaxed therefore I'm more relaxed. She also pays much better attention since she's not busy playing with the bit. She tends to make some pretty big moves when she spooks and I've noticed a decrease in her reaction to things, such as deer jumping out of bushes, and pheasant jumping out from beneath us in tall grass. I also feel more stable when she does spook because I'm not hanging on to her mouth which causes her to move her head to relieve the pressure...instead I'm hanging on to something more solid....her hard head..:)....which doesn't cause her pain thus diminishing the effect of her spooking. I think with time she'll learn that spooking won't cause her pain thus reducing the frequency and magnitude of her reaction.... Thanks for a great product.... I'll be ordering another one for the baby soon... Gregory

I also wanted to let you know that I am really enjoying the AB sidepull I bought from you a few months ago. My girls respond really well to it and I don't have to worry when I let beginners ride them. The riders can't hurt the horse by tugging too much on a bit if they lose balance.
Thanks again, Rachel

I tried the AB sidepull on the "lazy" one and had good success on him too! He is my husbands 4yr old who has picked up the habit of, when he gets tired, grabbing the bit out of your hand and bulling through and not watching where his feet are stepping. He tried this once with this sidepull on me and decided that didn't work and "really didn't feel good." Thanks for your time, Virginia

Got my Arthur-Burris sidepull on Saturday, and put it on Vern (my 3-year old paint gelding) on Sunday. He loved it!! I had no problems controlling him...he took to it right away. And it looks great on him...the dark green really looks nice with his solid sorrel color. Anyway, thanks for a great product...I really, really love the reins!! Thanks for the fast shipping!!! Mike

Hi, I got my A/B side pull yesterday and just had to use it! Just able to take a quick jaunt around the paddock once, but boy does Baby stop good now! I am planning on using this for training my young mules too, so may order an extra one too. Trying to talk my "training" friend into it for her youngsters too. Absolute wonderful quality too! Thanks for the wonderful product!!!!! D Bar J Acres

OTHER ITEMS

Keitha, the Mecate arrived yesterday!! I can't tell you how much I like it. I was at the Equine Affaire last week and looked at several and they
are no where near the quality of yours. It's just beautiful!! And green is my favorite color!!! I'll get to try it out on Tuesday...I can't
wait!! Thank you so very much! It was a pleasure to do business with you! And thanks for the price list for your other items that you sell!!! Pamela

Hi, Keitha! I got the Mecate tied just fine, thanks to your great directions!! It's just enough weight with the slobber straps to make the shanks on the bit work great. The reins that I had were too light and because the shanks are curved back, I wasn't able to get it to work the way it should. With the Mecate, it works just great and my horse was a happy camper!! Thank you so much!!! Have a wonderful holiday season!!!Best always, Pam and Cody

I just received my hand-tied halter and lead rope in the mail and wanted to let you know that I am very pleased with the quality and workmanship! I will definitely purchase from you in the future! Sincerely, Jennifer

Received halter and lead rope today. What wonderful craftsmanship! Thanks, Kathleen

My halter and lead rope came in yesterday. They are beautiful and I am very pleased with the purchase. (Especially since it was half the price that Clinton Anderson charges!) I can't wait to get in some more horse training. Thank you for such prompt service. -Meredith

I just received the halter & lead that I ordered from you. WOW! That was quick! I am very pleased with your product & will not hesitate to order from you again if the situation arises. Thanks, Kathy

I received the halter/lead rope today and it is so much better than what I was expecting, great product you have. I will be happy to tell my friends of your products and address. I am sure I will be shopping with you again in the future, and thanks. Thanks A Million Julie

Just wanted to let you know I have already received my order. That was very fast and I am very pleased with the quality of the halters and training lead Now if it will just warm up enough so I can go outside and try them out. : ) I will recommend you to my friends! Thanks, Karen

I wanted to let you know your Clinton Anderson halter/rope works great. I just love it. Super quality too. I probably will be back!! Thanks Trina

I just received my Natural Horseman Training Stick and String today and I love it. I compared it to my friend's Handi Stick that she made over 3 times the money for, and personally I think mine is nicer! Thanks again for "making something in the horse world affordable!" Linda

Marge

WOW!! What a differance, an item that we had worked hard on, trotting on lead, was there in just a moment or two. What a wonderful, and very exciting training tool. We played for an hour and I'm still having a hard time believing what I just experianced. The halter and lead are everything that you said that it would be and even more. I'm very excited about bringing our weanlings in, in a couple of weeks and starting them with this. I can't help but wonder how far along this colt would be if we had started with this halter and lead. As I grow in being trained by these wonderful animals, they take me to wonderful and exciting people, thanks for your encouragement and products. Terrell and Kim at the Wild Hare Ranch

Good morning! I received my training stick and string on Saturday and am very happy! Thanks so much for the great service and I look forward to buying more items from you in the near future! Thanks again, Jenny

Hi, I have just received the training stick... Thank you so much! I really like it. Thank you for the fast shipping and great communication! A happy buyer, Tiffany

Keitha: I'm loving the shu-fly you made for me as well as the training stick. When I was asked to help procure items for a silent auction I immediately thought of you and your work. Mary

I recieved my natural horsemanship stick yesterday and I just wanted to say thank you. It's very good quality at a great price.
Thanks again, Alisa

The stick is wonderful. I've only been able to use it a few times but I love it. It is so easy for me to handle. I've ridden my mare in the haltamore a few times also and what I love about it is that you really have to rely on your seat and legs. All of the equipment you have made for us is top notch and I've passed your name along to several of our friends along with your web address. Will stay in touch. Lynn

Just got this today, and it's incredible - the quality is wonderful and I can't believe how fast you shipped! Thank you for making this so easy - I think there are a lot of folks out there who would like to do the parelli program but just can't afford his prices - your products make it possible for me to start work with my gelding now instead of 6 months from now! I can't thank you enough, and I will pass on your info to anyone else at my barn who is 'saving up' for parelli gear!! -debbie

Keitha, Wanted you to know that the package was picked up at the post office yesterday. We are so pleased with all the items. They are high quality, well made and fairly priced. She is so very pleased with them. Thank you for offering these items. We ordered the Parelli Partnership package to use with our horses last year, only one set of training tools and two of us trying to train at the same time. Faith is sixteen and needed to buy her own tools and was dithering over the price of more Parelli items (Clinton wasn't much better). I found you on Tack Trader.com and surfed into your site. I am so glad! Will most likely be back as our training needs arise. Thank you, Eva-Marie

Keitha,
Got the macate, halter & slobbers a couple of days ago. I really like the feel of the braid on braid rope. It is just a bit smaller diameter and seems to fit my hands better, and feels just as responsive & lively as the sampson. Just wish it came in solid white. I will be back soon. Thank you, Kit
(It can be purchased in Solid White now)
