Bit of a dumb question I know, but never had it done before.
So after having a saddler out before who just put a saddle (which was swiftly returned) on my horses back, without watching me ride and said it fitted, I have found another saddler with a good rep and just wondered in terms of riding what is expected? Where I keep my horse there is no arena and not really a field to ride in by the yard, all I do is hack on the lanes. Will this cause problems? Do they need to see my horse walk, trot and canter in an arena or just up and down the lane in walk and trot?
Didn't have the guts to ask saddler such a silly question :S
Hoping you lovely lot can shed some light on it for me
Thank you!
