The shock did deter my horse for a while but he actually became used to it and returned to cribbing.

I don't like these collars because they put pressure on the horses head, and it didn't last long, I switched to the collar that only has one strap and it's the best thing I've ever bought. Comfortable for the horse and works. This needs to be tight & fits just a little too tight with the 2nd strap around the head.. the metals bits holding it together just couldn't hold it very well either.

My mare has been in this collar for many years being an avid cribber. It was time to replace her current Miracle Collar with a new one. Works great! Good quality leather.

Had to pop new holes in for my mini but as the last one was damaged - completely my fault while it was off the horse- I had to purchase a new one.It does fit, not rubbing, he's worn it now for weeks.

My horse has a weird shaped neck so the dare collar I normally use on cribbers wasn’t working. This collar is staying on better. With 2 straps it’s harder for his buddies to remove in the field. But it has slipped out of place pretty easily. It’s very tight when his head is up and very loose when it’s down.It’s also more flimsy than I remember miracle collars being. Maybe I got used to the crazy thick dare collar but this feels like it won’t last forever.It is mostly stopping him from cribbing which is the goal and so far he has 0 sores or hair loss.

Excellent quality. Stopped my horse from cribbing. I can even take it off for a day or two and he won't start cribbing until the 3 day with it off - that all depends on your horse though.

This collar didn't work as well as I'd hoped but every horse is a little different. Will be buying DARE collar next

I've owned an OTTB chestnut mare for over 8 yrs. She's not a destructive cribber, more of a wind sucker (even when out in the pasture.) Her previous owner used an older traditional cribbing strap that was completely ineffective. Since the Weaver Miracle Collar had good reviews, I gave it a try. It worked instantly and stopped her cribbing. I just ordered my 2nd collar since the first one wore out from weathering after 8 yrs. Here's a few tips I've learned over the years:1) Keep the head area cleaned daily by grooming. I live in sandy climate and the sand gets under the collar and causes irritation.2) Keep the collar well conditioned and clean every day.3) I find it's more effective by rotating the collar off and on with my mare. I will leave it on her for 5-7 days and then remove it for 24hrs or so. This gives her a break and then seems to be more effective when I put it back on. I have tried the fleece covers, but they get dirty quickly in my sandy terrain. Clinical studies show that nothing stops cribbing 100%, but this product is very effective when properly used.

Sadly not a miracle cure. In order for my horse to stop wind sucking on his stable door, I had to have this collar so tight that it was almost inhumane. Leaving him in it over night etc would leave deep impressions on his throat and forehead! I tried it looser like the instructions but he could still windsuck. The only way it became comfortable was if he had his head held low (eating off floor) so even eating out of a haynet was uncomfortable. My horse also hated the noisy buckles so much that as I approached him he would try to run away! He is normally very sensible! So my view is don't waste your money & it's not cheap! I couldn't send it back as the straps are so long that I trimmed them to stop them flapping round his head. I'm trying a piece of drainpipe over the top of his door so he can't take hold of it to windsuck.

It works ok if you can keep your horse from rubbing it off the pole strap has to be real tight I think to tight you need to readjust it almost every day

It works! Except, I have both of the straps behind my horses ears because Iwasnt sure if it would rub his forlock off (and I wasnt willing to test it)... it DOES rub where the bridle path is, but it just makes it so i dont have to keep shaving the bridle path i guess. but he does not crib with it, and the problem that I had with the metal cribbing collars is that the metal part rubbed into his neck from him trying to crib and left raw patches on his skin that turned into white spots. This cribbing collar does not rub on that part of his neck, and unlike the other metal cribbing collar, he physically can not crib.
