Does anyone know of a site or have any helpful pics. on how to properly & safely saddle a horse. I know sounds crazy ! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I love your site - you look so kind --- I was wondering if you could help me. We have a gorgeous reg. arabian yearling & a 9 yr. old well-trained quarter horse. My husband & I are NEW into horses & are looking for some sort of a DIAGRAM to view as far as saddling & bridling our quarter horse up. I've been on him bareback - he's great - but I want to saddle him up & take him on long trails - we bought a brand new saddle (in pieces meaning everything came separate - latigo straps, cinch, etc.) - and we CAN'T figure out how to safely attach the latigo straps (now I wonder if they are too long) - the people at the tack shop & fleet farm were not knowledgeable enough to help us. IF you could please offer a diagram or referal to a specific site or page with one - we'd be SOOOO greatful ! Thanks a ton, Laura :) ******Saddle or tack picture******* E-MAIL ME AT: lafouque@ucollege.edu
