When it comes time to saddle your horses, you want to make sure your tack fits them properly!
Your horse often shares signs of discomfort if being forced to wear a saddle that does not fit well. Naturally we all heed obvious signs of trouble (saddle sores, white hair developing over the withers) but even less urgent fit problems will make our horses uncomfortable and impede both movement and ability to balance correctly.
Don't ignore the signs; dancing around nervously as soon as you place the saddle on her back, whipping her head toward you, flinching, or kicking at her mid-section may indicate that your saddle isn't as comfortable as it should be.
Be sure to check out this helpful EZine article for more detailed advice regarding your saddle fit!
