Why saddle fitting is more than just placing a saddle on a horses back?

Long gone the days where it is acceptable that one saddle fits all horses....
This is an impossible unrealistic expectation, and here's why......

No two horses are conformationaly the same, this means some horses have
🐴High Withers
🐴Croup High
🐴 Short backed
🐴Long backed
🐴Big shoulders
🐴 Forward girth groove
🐴Big moving
🐴Short choppy strides
🐴 Up right shoulders
🐴 Or a combination of some of the things above.

The list can go on and on..... and that is without considering the rider and his or hers conformation.

All these things can make saddle fitting hard, and if not done correctly can cause the horse discomfort when being ridden, and in extreme cases, causing atrophy or musculoskeletal problems to the back and shoulders
Sadly you see this far to offen, and is accepted as the "norm"
In order for a horse to maintain soundness, he must biomechanically be allowed to move his/hers back in an unrestricted way that allows the muscles to develop, support and grow. This is where correct saddle fitting is essential for healthy development for your horse.

Sometimes it isn't until we "get the fit" 110% right we realise how much we have been restricting our horses way of going and development.

Saddle fitting and regular checks should be treated as it is just as important as having your horses teeth done.

See below a lovely young horse who has benefitted hugely from having a well fitted saddle that as allowed the back muscles to change for the better.🐴

WoW saddles-
The missing piece in the puzzle for the perfect fit.

Why WoW?

It is a modular saddle, meaning each and every part, is adjustable for the perfect fit, for horse and rider. From custom saddle flaps and seat to help maintain the perfect balanced position, changing the panels, girthing and even the smallest air adjustment to help improve your horses way of going.
Every horse and rider combo is different, which can make saddle fitting tricky to get the perfect fit for all. This is how WoW saddles can help take the stress away from finding the perfect combination for both horse and rider!

🐴The best performing tree on the market. Designed to remove shoulder restriction giving the horse greater comfort and allowing more natural, longer strides
🐴 No tree points to create pressure points and restriction
🐴The option of Flair known to provide the flexibility to allow the horse’s muscle to move unrestricted and enabling the fitter to balance the saddle front to back and side to side- something no other product can do. Indeed, recent research shows how horses change in back curvature when in motion and Flair is the only product that allows for this.
🐴No other brand offers a means within the seat – the patented paddle - to adjust the rider’s weight distribution as WoW does.
🐴 WoW has interchangeable panels and headplates which come in differing style and angles enabling changes to be made as the horse changes shape due to work, age and condition.
🐴The tree is available in 3 curvatures – flat, semi curved and curved.
🐴 recent research is now showing that horses lift their backs in motion so flattening the curvature. Our saddle gauge enables you to test for this when fitting, selecting the correct tree curvature whilst the Flair provides the flexibility to maintain horse comfort and performance.

If you are struggling with your saddle and feel you would like to give WoW saddle a go, I offer Demo fittings with a selection of stock for you to try.

Pm or WhatsApp on 07707 177 437 to arrange an appointment, I have limited availability for January and taking bookings into February.

Clipping

Why do we clip?

There are many reasons why we choose to clip our horses, and sometimes that reason is simpley because it looks smart, and makes our life easier when dealing with the wet and cold months ahead.

But here are some reason why we might decide that clipping is the right thing for you and your horse.

🐴Temperature regulation: Clipping reduces sweating and helps horses cool off and dry more quickly. This prevents horses from getting a chill, especially in the winter.

🐴Coat management: Clipping can help with the following:
Winter coats: Horses grow thick winter coats to keep warm, but they can overheat while exercising. Clipping helps prevent this.

🐴Cushing's Disease: Horses with Cushing's Disease have a hard time shedding their winter coats, so clipping can help, and make them feel much more comfortable.

🐴Feather management: Clipping can help with mud fever, mites, and Chronic Progressive Lymphoedema (CPL).

🐴Weight management: Clipping can help overweight horses lose weight.

🐴Tack rubbing: Clipping can help prevent tack from rubbing.

🐴Grooming time: Clipping can reduce the amount of time spent grooming.

🐴Coat growth: Clipping can encourage a horse's coat to grow back thicker and glossier in the summer.

I have limited availability now until the New Year, but I do still have some spaces available for anyone looking for clipping services.
I am kind and quite around the horses, with 25 years experience within the industry.

Prices start at £25

Longreining

An dying art......

In my years of training horses, the most Important skill I've learnt over the years, is the art of longreining, but not just walking them around on the end of a line, but working them In a rehabilitative way, teaching them to take the contact down and forward that teaches them to lift up through their backs and start to use their core without having to worry about the weight of a rider or consistently putting strain on the joints on a ever ending circle.

Longreining, allows you to "ride the horse" from the ground, in a therapeutic and healing way, that lunging can not do.

What longreining can do to help your horse

🐴Helps to build top line
🐴To strengthen the back and hind quarters
🐴Great way to bring a horse back into work after injury
🐴Great way to start young horses and build some strength and straightness before backing, while also teaching them about the contact and aids before we get on.
🐴Therapeutic for the horse and the best Physiotherapy we can give them in between physio treatments.

If you would like to learn how to longrein or for your horse to learn how,
Than don't hesitate in contacting me, I offer lessons on a 1 to 1 bases on your own horse .
It is never too late to learn a new skill for you and your beloved 4 legged friends 🧡
