ABSTRACT:
In a first embodiment, the crownpiece strap of a halter is subdivided, and Velcro-type hook-and-loop fastener material is affixed to the subdivided ends of the crownpiece, and the ends pressed together. Accordingly, the crownpiece will open, and release the haltered horse, if the halter becomes snared or entangled. In an alternative embodiment, a halter strap has the hook-and-loop fastener material on a terminating end thereof, with the hook material and the loop material separated therebetween. Then the strap is looped or folded over a halter ring, with the hook material and loop material adhered together. Again, upon the halter being strained, with tensile force being applied to the looped or folded over strap, the same will open to free the horse from any entanglement.
