About this product

Product Information

Dr. Joyce Harman's best-selling book and DVDs on saddle-fit have received rave reviews and helped improve the lives of performance and pleasure horses all over the world. Now, due to popular demand, she's written the complete reference on saddle-fit and back health for Western disciplines. 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, bars, seat, skirts, fleece, gullet, and stirrups; and the rider's conformation. She explains how all these variables must be considered in order to keep the horse comfortable. In addition, read about correct use of saddle pads; fitting saddles for different sports such as reining, cutting, pleasure, and trail; and how to care for your horse's back, both over the short and long term.

  • western horse pain free back and saddle fit book

    LOVE IT!! this book is a MUST HAVE for any western rider!(they wrote an english version too) if you are having behavior problems,performance issues,trail issues, lameness problems with your horse, he might be in pain!(all caused by poor saddle fit) this book teaches you how to correctly fit a saddle to your horse and what signs to look for when he is in pain. TONS of wonderful pictures and drawings! Wish I had this book years ago! great learning tool, even for a seasoned rider/trainer like myself. I LOVE THIS BOOK!! can't seem to put it down! ----- my philosphy: insanity is repeating the same behavior expecting a diffrent result.

  • The Western Horse's Pain-Free Back and Saddle-Fit Book

    The book is laid out very well and easily understandable. I love the book and have referred back to it several times. The reason I seeked out for this book was because I was having difficulty in fitting my saddle to my horse. My horse has showed signs of back pain and it did not set well with me. I want to make sure my horse is 100 percent comfortable so that he is able to perform. In this book, one thing I was able to figure out, was the type of pad and pad material that is 'best' for my horse. In this find alone, I have 'no regrets' in purchasing this book.

  • Excellent resource for horse riders. Price was great for value.

    Purchased book as a gift, as I already had a copy. This book is very informative and helpful in properly fitting a western saddle. I was able to finally find a saddle for my Arab gelding with the help of this book. I found the information she provided to be easily understood and her photographs very descriptive. I also have her book on fitting English tack. I highly recommend Dr Joyce Harman as an excellent authority on proper saddle fitting, no matter which style of riding you do.

  • Very appropriately named, Lots of good Saddle-fit info

    I like this book because it shows all the different reasons that a proper fitting saddle is so important. No one really wants to hurt their horse but a lot people just don't know what could be causing the pain. I bought this book because I wanted a book which covered the saddle fitting subject throughly. Effie

  • Awesome Book! Very informative!

    I love this book! It's a great reference book for everyone and sure teaches you how to fit a saddle and ease a horse's back pain. Makes riding more fun.
