ok this is going to be a bit odd but here goes.

i own a 14.2hh and want a saddle that i can put on her that my daughter can have a ride round on.

my daughter is only 19mths old so will need a bit of support around her and something to hold onto.

is there anything on the market that matches this requirement? or am i asking for the impossible?

other thing is that will any child saddle fit my mare?

one thing i'd be aware of... is at 19months old, her legs will be very short, and perhaps too short to sucessfully 'sit' in a saddle on a 14.2...?

mind you, shetlands can be wide too i guess.

my 2yr old 'rides' my 15.1... but he literally has to balance on top as his legs don't hang enough down the side. we're looking for a small pony for him at the moment and intend getting him one of those saddles with the handle on the front.

i think it's good getting them on young, my son is fearless and has such a natural balance. i got my first pony at 18months old too.... x
 
if i had land i'd already have a pony for her!!

shes fearless around horses and would just love to get her on board. im looking at a sheepskin pad a bit like the felt saddles but in sheepskin instead.

the other two saddles look good as well
