Hello Onliners :)

I have a very typical mare who hates her girth being done up. When I first got her she was rescued, and people who knew her before had said she had always a very thin tight girth from a very young age, and not the best treated, which leaded to her being very 'girthy' as she can remember the bad memories.
She has a fitted saddle, and is in a wintec pressure girth, the one with cair.
She has had physios, vets and all are clear.
She has improved since I've had her, but not perfect.

Is there any better girths I could try?
The Wintec seems good, but she still pulls faces and it can get hair trapped and hurt her in the small caps :(

Thanks :)
 
I have been in a similar position with my mare; we have tried a few girths, tried clicker training etc, she did get better; eventually though I bought the girth my friend recommended; the professional choice SMx VenTECH girth and she has completely stopped, so I think she was uncomfy before and now seems so much happier with this girth, might be worth a try?
