My horse has been on lease for 5 months, when he returned in Feb he got a nice new Ideal Suszahna with all the pocket money he'd earnt. We have had a few schooling issues with him backing off the contact which is odd for him, but I am doubting my riding and do have a fair dose of munchausen. Anyhow he is clipped out but for a saddle patch as he has been every year for the past 4 years I've owned him, however he leaser got a bit clipper happy and his saddle area has lost an inch or two at the back, the new saddle appears to have rubbed the clipped hair right back to nothing at the rear of the saddle, evenly but even so he seems sensitive and they appaer to my eyes to be a little raised / swollen. The saddle was professionaly fitted by a master saddler, is this a hair cut issue which will go when his coat comes through or should I call the saddler? Friend advised sheepskin half pad and get on with it but I'd hate to think he was uncomfortable and am now connecting this with his wierd hollowness.
