For a perfect fit, adjust the side tugs so there is a two-finger gap between the leather and your horse’s chest, ensuring the collar sits comfortably above the point of the shoulder to prevent saddle slippage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Is this breastcollar suitable for heavy roping?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: While the 2-inch width and premium skirting leather offer exceptional strength for barrel racing, ranch work, and mountain trails, heavy roping typically requires a 3-to-5-inch pulling collar. This model is the ideal versatile choice for riders who need high-performance stability across multiple Western disciplines without excess bulk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Will the edge dye bleed onto my horse's coat?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: No. Our dyed-edge collars are professionally sealed and finished to ensure the color remains locked in the leather. The dye will not transfer to your horse, even during heavy exertion or when exposed to significant sweat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eItem Number\/SKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e BC20021FTDE\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Martin Saddlery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47378711806173,"sku":"BC20021FTDE","price":302.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/8748\/7965\/files\/BC20021FTDE_1770706468366.webp?v=1770706509","url":"https:\/\/hoovesandpaws.com\/products\/floral-dyed-edge-tooled-breastcollar-2-inch","provider":"Hooves and Paws","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
