That doesn't sound right, I have the same size and bigger feet but have a good inch of space. Did you measure them before you sent them back?

Joddy clips! Most annoying things ever! Still have my clicky over reach boots somewhere, used to be so jealous of those who had multiple coloured flaps!

I'm going to try this, once box rest is finished!! Oh Mole Valley has great ones reduced to £10 a pair, they really do last and stay put.

Personally I would treat them the same as if it was me. I broke my leg 11 years ago but it hasn't stopped me from doing anything, well apart from running without a knee support! He will tell you if it starts to hurt :) Good luck and fingers crossed!

Mine had this, I was recommended to try an Eskadron lamb skin under saddle pad, allows you to use your saddle pads as normal.

Can't comment on jumping, but a fellow liveries horse suffered the same injury and after a year on box rest came sound and continues all flat work with no issues.

Depends on how forward cut your saddle is. My K2 jump would have been ok, but my mono flap doesn't even fit the SR cut.

Personally I would offer to send my instructor over to them for a lesson but not offer anything more. (Due the travelling element) Sounds like the horse is pushing the boundaries with them. Would like to say not all of them test the water, but a fair few do!

I haven't personally, but they could be shut for the Christmas period.

I've found a saddler who can make a lovely mono flap dressage to your specs. Has 10 different styles of tree so you should find something suitable. All for around £1400 so not bank breaking

Very very odd!!

Do you think gorilla glue would hold it?

Help! Calling all DIY pros. I've managed to get hold of a decent sized bit of banner material and I am hoping to turn it into a banner style filler. I'm just stuck on how to stick it together to allow the poles to slot through on either end. Does anyone have any ideas? I hate the thought of...

Peter has been a saddler for a few years, great service. The area is blessed with some great saddlers. Personally didn't buy my last saddle from them as I went made to measure - so much easier and better for the horse IMO but same price if not cheaper than the Fairfax which i think has a kent...

It's a ridiculous clause!! You have to have exhausted all treatment options prior to considering PTS under the guidelines, even if the prognosis is only field sound. I tried when my boy was PTS due to subspensory damage, OCD in his stifles and liver failure, was told his case did comply as there...
