Here is the maker's mark:
I only worked Gussie in the round pen, I figured that would be enough for her fatness on her first day back at work.
She's a pretty girl, and after a about 10 minutes of this,
I rode for a while- and I sure don't like having to climb aboard those tall horses, I'm not so spry lately. Gimme my short horses any time! Gussie alternated between softness and bracing, but over all it went all right for her first ride in over 7 months. She has the smoothest little trot, it's a real pleasure to ride. Now I just have to ride her nearly every day and get her conditioned to go on some trail rides with my friends this summer.

She's looks pretty good too... could be a tad tight in a few strides yet but could be because she was paying attention to you as well! I seen a few toe first landings with some dirt scuffing forward but much better then before!
Thats a nice saddle and looks great on Gussie..:-)
Good for you , very nice saddle
Nice saddle!
I'm in the same boat... Appy has been off for about 8 months.
She is very cute - glad you got in a good ride! Very nice looking saddle . . .
I love the saddle! I agree, give me those short horses any day!
Beautiful saddle!
she's a fine horse. i prefer short horses myself :D getting bucked off big rocky kinda makes one prefer a smaller horse:D
She's looking good ...ready to go...might some of those rides include me and whoever?Michele having been dumped from tall and small ...first I found out size doesn't matter you hit just as hard and second the taller ones give you a chance to tuck and roll...the little guys just slam ya into the ground, all the same I like my little guys:)
Beautiful saddles, and I'm more comfortable on a shorter horse, too!
I like a short horse.....but I have VERY short legs and the getting on is harder than it use to be.
hi janice:D
i got bucked off rocky when i was a kid back in the 70s. she was to me, a HUGE horse. not sure how many hands high she was.
since then, i prefer smaller horses:D
She is looking a tad round, but so are mine and I have been riding them! Too much food available Im thinking. And I too like shorter horses, especially for the last one of the day :)
Your dog makes me smile :) She is beautiful - how tall is she?
What a great saddle. It is rare to find a nice hand-made saddle in our area. My stallion has filled out so much my saddle isn't fitting him as well and I've been looking. Have fun riding.

I noticed that the Border Collies get their exercise too! That is some beautiful saddle! :)
