Inserto de bozal - Cuero, Caballo

This horse-size leather insert is made with tabs specifically to work with the size 5 (Horse) GreenGuard Grazing Muzzle.

We also offer tabless leather inserts for both the size 4 (Pony) and size 3 (mini) as well as older style size 5 (horse) muzzles. If you are in any doubt, please consult our detailed insert compatibility chart!

Please contact Support if you have questions about leather inserts and pre-2022 muzzles.

This video tutorial gives you a detailed evaluation of our inserts - rubber and leather - so you can make the best choice of material for your horse and their specific needs.

Here is a step by step video tutorial on how to use the tabless leather insert. Though the video is geared toward the mini, the process is the same for the pony size.

Older-style (pre-2022) GreenGuard Grazing Muzzles do not have slots to receive muzzle inserts.

Check our muzzle compatibility chart to see which insert is best for your particular muzzle.

Here is a do it yourself tutorial showing how to adapt your muzzle to receive a muzzle insert. This works best with a tabless leather insert.

Both our horse and mini leather muzzle inserts restrict grass intake a little bit more than the muzzle alone. To further restrict you can use  a plastic sheet cut with your desired hole size between a leather insert and the muzzle as shown in this video: customize the size of the holes.

This technique works best with our leather inserts. This video shows you how to customize hole size specifically for the mini muzzle.

Whether cleaning between uses, or prepping to store for the off season, we recommend rinsing the insert and then rubbing down with a 50-50 mixture of water and vinegar.  Hang the insert until it is completely dry (we found a breezy barn aisle works great!) and then place in storage.

Dried and stored inserts, especially leather, can still gather moisture depending on seasonal humidity. If you pull your insert out of storage and see a bit of mold, don’t panic. Srub the insert with the vinegar-water mixture to remove the mold and hang to dry. You can also use a mild non-toxic dish or hand soap and water mixture, but some horses may find the lingering smell off-putting.We generally do not recommend treating the inserts with leather cleaners or conditioners unless you are certain it is non-toxic, such as some beeswax brands.

If the leather insert gets too wet before being "cured," it may shrink or lose its shape. To cure your leather insert, we recommend getting it slightly wet and then drying it completely several times before letting your horse wear it in a very wet or moist environment.
