Take Saddle Fit Into Your Own Hands…
Take Saddle Fit Into Your Own Hands…
The fit of your saddle means everything to your horse’s wellbeing.
Think about it this way: if your saddle fits your horse poorly, it will make their back sore. If their back is sore, they’ll brace to try to move away from the discomfort and compensate by using other parts of their body differently and likely incorrectly. Typically, the hocks and/or stifles will follow suit and become sore next. With sore hocks, your horse will then likely displace their weight onto their forehand, which, as most of us know, is not a healthy manner of movement. They may brace their neck for balance and create discomfort there, and they may put undue stress on their forelimb joints, like their knees and fetlocks. From a sore back comes a sore body.
A poorly fitting saddle can cause catastrophic effects, of course, but it can be difficult to find a qualified saddle fitter in your area to help. The fear of not knowing whether your saddle fits well can be crippling.
It’s time to take saddle fitting into your own hands.
