muscle
wastage
Due to continued use of ill fitting saddles, it is easy to
see the advanced stages of muscle wastage.
A horse’s back
shape is usually a reflection of how well his saddle fits.
Muscle Wastage is usually caused by previous injuries, discomfort
or restrictions imposed upon the ridden horse as he tries
to cope with an ill-fitting saddle.
If the saddle doesn't fit the horse, the more you work him,
the more pronounced the problems will become.
Some of these symptoms may be: Wasted,
damaged, sore muscles; poor muscle development; unnatural
hoof growth and wear; unnatural movement; poor performance
or girth shyness.
