I Facebook messaged the local tack shop as...Thanks. I Facebook messaged the local tack shop asking them if they could get a Stubben Euphoria in from their Rep for me to try. I got spooked looking at CWD's website today- they only show one dressage model and it mentioned "holding your core steady" or something like that, and I don't want to be held in my saddle. I'm good enough that I don't need or want the restriction of big blocks. I knew it would be necessary, but apparently Penn is a sensitive soul like Mikey and wants his saddle NOW. He came to the right house for catering to sensitive souls though. And I don't want to ruin him by making him uncomfortable being ridden or cause permanent girthyness (he wasn't when Alice tacked him up!) so... new saddle! On the plus side, there's a girl in the barn who wants my Jaguar... badly... and it fits her horse nicely, so at least I'll be able to sell it quickly as long as she likes sitting it.Codex Dressagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04736021620789376995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4010353728052033100.post-67313693223955406972015-09-23T14:12:42.020-04:002015-09-23T14:12:42.020-04:00I hope you find a new saddle without too much dram...I hope you find a new saddle without too much drama.

I was surprised by the girth not fitting better. Maybe in a year he'll have filled out to need that 24", but I kind of don't see that happening!Codex Dressagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04736021620789376995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4010353728052033100.post-65295087828667011782015-09-23T12:48:42.134-04:002015-09-23T12:48:42.134-04:00Haha, the curse of the slightly-smaller new horse....Haha, the curse of the slightly-smaller new horse.
