Driving Harness

What is the difference between having a collar on your horse or driving strap Brest ... I see that they would diff. parts of the horse, but how do u decide what to use? cares? I want to drive my Percheron / county and I dont know what to get harness ..

The necklace is for plowing and pulling wagons heavy loads. The weight is distributed around the neck as they pull, helping to push their weight in it.

Breaststyle collars are more for light traction, such as 4-wheel vehicles lighter and smaller.

I personally use breastcollar harness, but I never do "work" such as plowing and pulling wagons, just show and fun to drive on the trails. My mule pulling a trolley 2 wheels.

I must add * Warning * time that the collars must be properly fitted to your pet would saddle. I learned this the hard and injured my mule, pursing his composure subscapularis illfitting with a collar. Month chiro and acupuncture treatment may fix it, but I learned a valuable lesson. This is another reason why I do not use clamps, but if I use my work guys, I would.

Necklaces come mule, donk, the size of the horse so thats another consideration for a collar that fits and is not a different type.

I think if the horse is in the plow for long periods of time, within a belt is used.

Pulling the heavy equipment or cart or carriage with a lot of weight for long periods of time, necesitate could use a collar that would mean less pressure and abrasion on the chest of horses.

I think "the look" may have something to do with that too. If a class tries to recreate a certain period of time that was used back in the day.

I'm sure there are more detailed information on the Internet or if you would purchase your equipment.

Good Luck

I am not an expert on the spot, but I made some.

In general, I think the collar is used for large print strap and chest harness light or fancy traction. I have rarely seen something great writers, but the necklace. It spreads the force of attraction on a much larger area and Meet the conformation of the horse better.

Different races use different styles of harness, too. You can tell what race he is just looking at the harness.

For the general conduct of a draft horse, I get the type collar. It is more versatile in the long term, and more correct than the heavy horses are associated with heavy traction.

Is it important? It depends on what you want to do. Horse pulls, get the necklace. Conduct shows, get your race specific harness collar. driving pleasure, get what you want.
