Signs/symptoms you've had of an ill-fitting saddle?? I'm already going to get a new one, as I'm certain mine isn't the best fit for my mare, but I'm wondering if (hoping) this will be the solution to the issues I've had with her.
Reluctance to move out at all 3 gaits, lead problems at the lope, throwing head up when saddling and giving the stink eye, sinks back when saddling, stands with front legs camped under, loss of top line, dry spots, and in the rope horse, he quit pulling, etc.....
The biggest tip off for me and my horse is she stops picking up her left lead. It she is really sore she will just be a real biotch. She won't settle, jigs constantly etc.
