Back Saddle for mini?

So I bought a cheapo nylon driving harness for Mr. B a few months back, and it's been great, though I have had to make a few adjustments to it so that it would fit him, being the fatty he is.

Well we were out on a drive the other day, trotting along and suddenly the rings on the saddle popped off. Dx I managed to jerryrig it so we could get back ( Read more... )

Could you have it repaired by a leather craftsman? I understand that it's nylon, but a lot of folks who repair leather could also repair that. I use a local shoe repair shop for all my simple fixes such as this one...in fact, I took him my lunging surcingle once to have two rings reattached. He did a great job and it cost me $5! Maybe you have someone like that locally.

Lol umm 9 I think? He's 36", soo if I'm doing my math right, 9 hands xD He's quite an awkward size, too big for a mini, too small for a pony. D:

That's about how big my mini was. He looked an awful lot like your guy. Miss that little booger! He has a new home with some little girls who love on him every day, though. :)

Quote from my driving trainer: "Mini folks expect mini tack to be cheaper because it's smaller, but good quality tack takes the same time to make regardless of the size." Just food for thought, because unfortunately you get what you pay for.

I can get you links for places to buy a saddle to fit him, but unfortunately it won't be under a hundred bucks. :/

Super cute pony though! :)
