Saddle problems

[Abb]

I have a welsh second D with very sore back with poor rear end movement not helped with poorly fitted saddle which can not now be used I have tried 2 fitters who could not help, I desperately need to find a qualified fitter in the hampshire area who can help, I have been borrowing a WOW saddle while he has been at the vets can any one help a desperate Mum?

Feel your pain, have been there, done it with saddle fitters. We must have got through about six, seven even, here. Got the t-shirt, mug, DVD, all the flippin lot.

Just bumping this up for you: can anyone in that area help???

You say he has a sore back...is this a result of the poor hind movement or the saddle? If its the latter I would be inclined to get that sorted first and stick to ground work as he will change shape as his muscles develop. Then I would search around for someone who fits any of the adjustable saddles. My*saddler is excellent, but I'm not sure he'll tra el to Hampshire (I'm in Eats Sussex)

Have you looked at Solution Saddles? They'd be my first port of call, but I'd follow vet advice re. when to start riding again.

Try http://www.equineequilibrium.co.uk/ if you want to a phoenix or flexee saddle. Another advantage is Louise is a body worker as well so will be able to factor that into her fitting.
