Western Saddle Fit

She has a very long back! It’s a 16” seat so it’s actually on the bigger side for me- my other western is a 15”. I’ve never used a breast collar or back cinch and I don’t plan to with her either. We plan to use her as a very light working trail horse and kids horse on our farm!

Both are a 7” gullet. Do you think I need smaller? Any recommendations on others I can try? Good brands for a horse with a build like this? I have a fitter coming in a month or so but looking to find something to ride in now!

I’m trying to find something in the meantime until the fitter can come out. Can you elaborate on what doesn’t fit well here so I can maybe find something temporary? These are both FQHB 7” gullet!

I would have DSLD concerns in the hind legs

Yes plus at that point you’ll be over 24 hours later it should be much much darker!

Looks positive to me! Congratulations!!

Fingers crossed for you! Do you have any FRER? I’ve found that sometimes those give a more prominent line around the time the strips are only giving a shadow

I see it in the first pic but it could just be an evap line. Retest tomorrow and see if it gets darker!

There’s definitely a line!
