Saddle Fitters/Back People near Preston

[lesleywuk]

I had my new horses saddle checked a couple of months ago when i first got her and i now think it should be checked again as she has put on more weight and it is looking to be sitting a bit high in front. I have heard all these horror stories about people getting theirs checked by someone and it still not fitting so would like a different opinion this time i also found the first lady from a website so would like some recomendations for any that you use.

I am also looking at getting her back checked but would like some recomendations on this too rather than just finding someone off the net

Thanks!

iv just had deby house out and would not recommend, they where very expensive, they dont do px and then said the saddle for my horse needed to be made to template which was £1150.

I felt pressured to get whats best for my horse and was worried about finding the money for this, as its derby house you put your trust in them to look after you as a customer and get the best value for you and your horse.

So got a 2nd saddler out , and he brought about 17 2nd hand saddles (which where like new) and i got the same saddle but not to template for £750.00 brand new and they px other saddle so i only paid 450.00.

I was a tad dissapointed with derby house, we use a back lady who travels up from uilth wells, she is very good, she does lots of horses around the area she is 40.00 but spends about 1.30 to 2hrs with you each session..and she does not do any of this banging and slapping that some do on their backs, she is very patient and kind
