Good luck

find something that feels comfy and secure, and fits the ponio well!
shouldnt move or rock too much, and shouldnt be any pressure points but saddler should sort that for you!

Try plenty before you buy and do everything you'll be doing in it- jumping and galloping for example, if not you might find it slips in certain situations and so on. good luck! x

kitcat: Hi everyone. Not been on for ages so trying to have a quick catch up. We moved house at the end of last year but still havent sold the old one. We made the mistake of finding our dream property before selling. Now added 6 chickens to the family. Mar 28, 2014 15:04:47 GMT
