HORSE'S PAIN-FREE BACK AND SADDLE-FIT BOOK

In this most thorough, comprehensive book, Dr. Harman, veterinarian and respected saddle-fitting expert, educates the reader about the horse's conformation - particularly the shape of the back, withers, ribs, and shoulders; saddle construction - the tree, pommel, seat, panels and gullet, placement of stirrups bars and girth billets; and the riders conformation. Because many of these aspects change over time according to exercise and training programs, she offers a section on the use of pads and shims for temporary problem solving, as well as invaluable information on caring for the horse's back, both short and long term.
