Information About

Halter




A halter, or headcollar, is headgear that is used to guide an animal; it fits over the back of the neck and across or around the animal's Muzzle so that, when a handler pulls on the muzzle end of the halter, the animal's head turns towards the handler.

Halters are commonly used on Horse s and sometimes on Cattle , Dog s, and other animals.

The primary difference between a halter and a Bridle is that the latter has a Bit that goes into a horse's mouth, providing even greater control.
