Choosing a show halter
I have purchased several
western style show halters on ebay and not one has been usable. Most are
made in India and are proportioned incorrectly (small nose band,
ridiculously long sides). If you want a western show halter, save yourself
much time, frustration (and ultimately money) and buy one directly from a
person that sells show equipment for minis (it would be even better if you
could catch a dealer at a show and have them fit your mini in person...but
that isn't always possible). I've heard very good things about Ozark
Mountains -

Showing a stallion
It sometimes helps to use Vicks on a stallion's nose to
prevent him from smelling the other horses and acting up. But don't put it
on and then show in the sun, it can sunburn his nose, due to the oil in the
Vicks.
