In April I got a full loan. We went to try her, she was quite lazy in the school and was mainly used as a happy hacker. obviously, you can't be too fussy about full loans as (ponies especially) are quite hard to come by. however, the lady gave us a different saddle to what we tried her in when we confronted her about it, she just said that that was the saddle fitted to the pony (she also said that she was loaning her pony because she couldn't afford it, but we later found out "she couldn't get her going"). I have been schooling her and hacking her. We went through a phase where she wouldn't even walk around the school, I thought she might be in pain (flicking tail, ears pinned, throwing head when asking for a faster gate). she then got a little better but has got worse again. I checked her saddle and noticed that panels were very hard and lumpy where the filling had moved. I want everyone's opinion on what to do now. Should she be paying to sort this out? (she has offered to sell her but we said we will wait and see) thanks
