I don't know why I have never asked you lot this question before - but here goes.
When I do Micks girth up he blows his belly out, so much that I can only use an Aerborn Humane girth and do one buckle up at a time. I have no problem with this, but I would like to use other girths. I bought a lovely leather girth for him but was unable to use it as I couldn't fasten it. The buckles were about 6 inches away from the bottom of the straps, so I swapped it for a longer girth that would reach the straps. But, by the time I had tightened it enough to be safe I had ran out of holes on the girth straps. It was that bad.
Does anyone else have this problem or have you got any tips on how to stop him blowing out. When I am on and tightening the girth I have to keep him in walk as if I stop he blows out.
