A. J. Bubear Master Saddler
It is important to have a professionally fitted saddle to provide comfort for both yourself and for your horse. An ill fitting saddle can not only be uncomfortable for your horse but can result in injuries such as saddle sores and back problems. If you don’t check your saddle fits properly and you continue to use it regularly this can cause long term problems for your horse. It can also contribute to behavioural problems as the horse would be uncomfortable or in pain.
