Room For Improvement?

• Does your horse have plenty of room for a straight breast collar between neck and shoulder without causing discomfort to either?
• Does he move freely from the shoulder at all times?
• Does he stride out well at the walk when driving?
• Does your horse have straight lines?

"A remarkable development in harness design! The improvement is instantly recognisable!"

The Empathy Collar

Set Comprises

• Collar
• Wither Strap
• Martingale
• Quick Release trace fittings

Features

• Shape follows the contours of your horse, lifting over the point of the shoulder, but below the soft underneath of the neck and windpipe.
• Frees up the bony part of the shoulder joint to maximise movement without pressure.
• Straps to the wither have three positions, movable to suit narrow or wide necks.
• Padded martingale, which assists the desired position of the collar.

Suitable For:

• Facilitating best possible paces and freedom of movement in any horse or pony.
• Hugely advantageous to animals with a low headset.
• Animals with shoulder lameness from strains or old injuries or stiffness to the shoulder.
• Horses or ponies that tend to shorten their stride when in draft.

Design & Development

Three years of work, research and field testing have gone into producing this collar.
With advice and input from the veterinary profession (advisor Professor Ramsey Hovell), and close study of bone and muscle anatomy in the shoulder region, "Empathy" design works with conformation, not against it.
Age old harness styles from working horses across Europe have been developed and combined with modern technology to make the Empathy collar.
