"Always good to have on hand!"
"Love using these ear plugs, especially in the winter time, when the horses tend to be a bit more fresh!"
"Great!"
"Made a huge difference with our beautiful mare. No more spooks due to falling snow off the arena roof. Easy to put in and take out. Our girls doesn't mind having them in at all. Love that we can wash them. Just purchase a second pair to have on hand. Highly recommend."
"Easy to use. Very good quality for the price."
"I will never show my horse without these again! They work great!"
"I purchased to help reduce anxiety on the 4th of July. It took me at least 5 sessions of slow practice ahead of time for my horses to be okay with me putting these in. Plan ahead to use these or you will most likely create problems with your horse. You have to push them in as deep as they will go because any head shaking will cause them to pop out. Even with pushing in as far as possible my mustang mare was able to pop these out after a short while (she has a larger head and bigger ears, so that may be a factor). My quarter mare who is smaller boned kept them in all night. As for helping with fireworks. . . if the fireworks are mostly in the distance I say they work well to help take the bite off the sound and ease startle responses. If you have inconsiderate entitled neighbors who spend thousands on their amateur fireworks show nextdoor, it probably won't be worth the hassle. That is what I found. Also, if these ear plugs are in for an extended time and then removed your horse may be much more reactive and anxious following removal, especially a naturally hot horse. Do yourself a favor and only remove them after you are able to let the horse loose in it's paddock for a while to adjust."
"Easy to put in the horses ears. Settled her right down in a noisy environment"
"Great quality, decreases distractions"
"These work great in the show ring! I feel like they stay in the ears better than the traditional merino plugs."
