Dulla asked:

I have an Arabian and I still haven't found a saddle that fits her well. I have been using a friends western saddle. I don't want to buy a treeless and then regret it later. But I need a saddle of my own. I've also heard they can be used on a lot of different horses if that's so I could use one if I decide to use my friends Quarter horse sometimes.

What is the best saddle to use for English Equitation?

I currently have an awesome Dover saddle, but I'm curious to see what other people use for competition.

How can I measure my horse/saddle with a tape measure so that I can find a saddle that fits?

I have bought a saddle that doesn't fit my horse and I want to try and find the best fitting one. Is there a way to measure with the measure tape? Thanks.

Anna Rosa asked:

The saddle pad I've been using for the last few years for showing is shot. I need a new one, obviously white. I don't want to spend more than $70 on it. I'd like to get a nice monogrammed one, but it's not a necessity. Any suggestions?
I'll be showing huntseat. Just wanting some suggestions.
