The best saddle fitter around!!

Brittany Cameron REMT ISF

🐎 25 years of experience as a competitive equestrian and horse owner
🐎 14 years of ongoing study and practice as an REMT specializing in biomechanics and sports therapy
🐎 6 years of ongoing study and practice as an Independent Saddle Fitter and SMS Trainee

An extensive knowledge of equine biomechanics, kinesiology, as well as personal riding experience is crucial to the success of a saddle fitting consultation. Though we work with and carry a selection of high end adjustable British saddles that we love, we remain independent from any brands. We do not “rep” brands. I work for YOU. The horse always comes first, long before pride, money, fashion, or brand names. I don’t care what your horse looks like, what your budget is, or what saddle you have! No judgement, no pressure, no bias 💕

I’ve set as public so feel free to share. Also would consider selling my Dauphin yearling to the perfect home. As always the perfect home is more important to me than the perfect price!!

I’m looking to see if there is any interest in the area for an introductory course on equine taping. This will be a 2 day course located in Hampton. It’s geared for owners, trainers and riders. It is a prerequisite for a more advanced course that will hopefully be offered in the spring. We need a minimum of 10 participants. Once we know we have the numbers we will finalize a date. PM me if you are interested.

Both fillies are still available to the perfect home only. Both are expected to finish around 16.2hh and will be registered with KWPN.

Tori is very outgoing and nothing phases her. She will be a solid build like her dam. She will be suitable for any discipline, her sire Royal Prince has been listed in the top 10 dressage sire and eventing sire several years by the USEF. She already jumps everything she can find in her paddock and has 3 solid balanced gaits.

Mya is more shy and sensitive. She’s going to be fancy and best suited for the dressage ring. Her sire is the imported KWPN stallion Tolegro (sired by Totilis) and she’s out of an imported KWPN mare by Florencio. She has 3 balanced flashy gaits.

Prices are negotiable with payments plans available as well as boarding options.

Please share. I highly recommend taking the online course mentioned in this post. Not only to help out an amazing educator who has devoted her life to helping horses and sharing her knowledge but it’s a great resource for owners wanting to learn about their horses anatomy.

𝗔𝗻𝘆 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘂𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗯𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝗸 𝗯𝘆 𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗵𝗲 𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝘆 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲.

Over the past 20-plus years, Debranne Pattillo, founder of Equinology, has tirelessly traveled the world, teaching equine anatomy and massage -- and painting horses on every continent. She has developed a comprehensive curriculum taught by world-class experts, advancing holistic equine care with a whole-horse approach that integrates physical, mental, and emotional health. Debranne's work has set industry standards and significantly contributed to the field of equine bodywork.

Debranne’s dedication extends beyond education; she has been a relentless advocate for equine bodyworkers, working with lawmakers to establish legitimacy and recognition for the profession. She co-founded the International Equine Body Worker Association (IEBWA) to support and foster ethical practices within the field.

Her efforts have helped elevate the standards and ethics of equine bodywork, ensuring practitioners are well-trained and respected within the veterinary and
equestrian communities.

Recently, Debranne and her husband have faced a devastating challenge. Severe storms caused a significant landslide on their property, leading to extensive damage that insurance will not cover. Their savings are exhausted, and the cost of repairs is nearly as much as their home's value, making it impossible for them to cover the expenses out of pocket.

As seniors, taking on substantial debt is not feasible. They are at risk of losing their home, a place they intended to spend the rest of their lives - and their most significant investment. Debranne's husband, a retired police officer and veteran, has been hospitalized due to the stress of this situation.

In times of crisis, community can make or break someone. I am reaching out to the equine wellness community to ask for your help in supporting Debranne and her husband during this difficult time.

Your contribution can make a significant difference in stabilizing their property and allowing them to remain in their home. Any assistance you can provide, even a few dollars, would mean the world to them.

Debranne Pattillo's work has profoundly impacted the equine community, and now she needs our help.

Thank you for considering their situation and for any help you can offer.

Please SHARE.

Clients ask me every day, what the “best” saddle brand is. The short answer is well and truly; “Anything that fits the individual horse.” As a bodyworker first and foremost, I care only about the horses health and well-being, no matter your discipline, experience, or budget.

But if you were to ask me what brand of saddle I ride in? “WOW.”
I’ve ridden in *everything*, and the first time I sat in a Wow many years ago, I laughed at the fact I had been missing out on my own comfort, as well as my horses for so long. My faith in the company and it’s passionate devotion to research in providing ultimate in horse comfort is endless, and I’ve simply never had to question what any of my horses would go in since.

When a new client comes to me already in a Wow, I am immediately relieved knowing that the horse in front of me is highly unlikely to have any body pain associated with saddle fit. I was willing to sacrifice aesthetic for the incredible function, but now you don’t have to; Wows are now simply stunning! My personal horses will forever be in Wow 🤩

Do some research, ask some questions, shoot us a message.

Now that the days are getting longer and warming up I’m coming out of hibernation and back booking appointments!

New and current clients feel free to reach out and get booked in for an assessment and bodywork session. This is a great way to check in with your horse and see where any weaknesses are before getting back into work. Please remember I am not an alternative to a vet, please contact your veterinarian first if you are experiencing lameness issues.

If you have any questions regarding my education feel free message me! I am certified thru Equinology and I carry full liability insurance for both massage and riding lessons. I also have a diploma in Equine Studies from the University of Guelph and I am an EC certified instructor.

My schedule is flexible for the Saint John to Sussex region and I will be booking trips for Pocologan, Fredericton, Rexton and Miramichi. If there is interest in other areas please reach out to me. This is not my primary career but I try my best to accommodate everyone.

Confirmed Dates:
Pocologan March 14th
