How to tack up a horse English 

Thanks for this!! Took a beginner riding lesson a few days ago, have another next week and reviewing your video a few times is helping me to remember what I learned (kinda like homework, even if I finished school 43 years ago!). Appreciate the detail.

That is the issue with posting any horsey videos. People that ride have too many opinions. Great video. You did a wonderful job, and I'm sure many people learned something new! Don't let people get to you! Good job!

I'm glad this is helping someone!! Appreciate the comment!

I watch how to tack up videos for fun (cause I can tack up) and ur video is te best so far!

That's the problem with horse videos everyone has different way of doing things and then there are arguements well anyway thankyou i learned alot xx good job well done

Thanks for the video! I ride western, but I just recently received a used English saddle and I was so confused ! hahaha

Glad it helped! And congrats on getting a horse, how exciting!

Thanks for the video . You did it all so well and I could understand you too :P . Needed that information and nobody on youtube has videos up that show me clearly and properly .. Thank you! :D

Yay, glad it helped! Well, the general rule is like two, but you want it to be quite snug. Ask your trainer to be sure.

Yay, I'm glad it helped. Congrats on leasing, and good luck!

I can't wait till I get a hores this summer this helps a lot

Thanks! (: Its has more reddish tones actually. If you watch some of my other video's filmed outside, the lighting may be better.

Nice video

With my irish draught i have only ever used one saddle pad on her, i agree with you, i think it's different for every horse.

thank you for makeing this video im going to start takeing english riding lessons soon and this really helped alot and i think your horse is really cute

good video it really helped I kinda know how to tack up I just wanted to make sure I was doing it right

your horse is super duper cute!!!!

Yea, there are so many opinions in the horse wold! Thanks!

I'm really glad it was helpful!

Thank you for your concern.

Good job, your really good at that!

i work at a really good stables and 2 saddle pads are for horses with bad backs and stuff like that, or the ones who get ridden most.(the smaller ones) most only have 1

Your horse is amazing-3

I'm glad it helped!

Aw, your comment made my day! Thank you so much! (:

This helped a lot! Just one question how many fingers should you be able to put under the noseband?

Glad you found it helpful. (:

I'm sorry, but I won't be able to do horse videos for a while. ): But when your horse is extra muddy just get out your brushes and give it some elbow grease! Especially with the curry comb to loosen all the dried on mud. Focus especially where any tack will be (saddle, girths, breast collar). Check out my grooming video if you'd like. Thanks, and I'm glad you enjoyed the video.

i got thought that it the first two ones and the furthest away is just in case they break but you still awesome i might try it:) (on the girth)

thats a really good girth tip cuz i get that placment bad ALOT

Do you think you can do a video on How to groom a muddy horse before you ride cuz my horse is always muddy from his paddock's and we don't have stall's Please btw you did an awesome job!! what a beautiful horse!!!

You're welcome! Glad it could be helpful! (:

you actually don't it depends on the horse and how you feel about it if you feel he needs more padding well then so be it and in the summer when i ride we usually dont have 2 saddle pads even in winter but we do use riser pads and there comfy for both horse and rider :D

Thank you! Sadly he's not mine, but he is amazing! (:

Thanks so much!

Thank you!

Its fine to go around their "bum" as long as they know you're there. Notice as I went behind him, my hand was on him so he knew where I was going.

This isn't my tack, its the tack provided for me when I leased the horse. It worked fine for us, so, idk about a keeper. And no, you didn't sound rude! (:

Do you get any of your tack from smartpak? i recently got a dressage saddle.. probs 2 weeks ago gawd it pretteh expensive lol >.

I've always used the outer two, but I suppose it doesn't matter! (:

What kind of saddle is that? Like what brand? I've never seen one that red before

Thanks!

are you using an FM bit? even if your not, that bit need keepers :) sorry im reallly trying not to sound rude lol

what brand is your saddle?x

8:10 i hate it when that happens! i'm really small so when im tacking up at my stable for lessons and i'm helping get a big horse ready its hell!

Seems like such a geentle easy going horse. What breed is he?

I'm not going to get into an argument, but I'm just going to say I'm sure its different for every horse. I don't use more than one with him and he's perfectly fine.

Correct..my stirrups were run up.

I bought my riding helmet there, but never have bought any tack.

Glad to hear. (:

I only use one saddle pad on my horse and he's perfectly fine, you don't 'have' to use 2..

Is that a Kincade saddle?

What type of horse it that

Both, but English mostly.

Pops lol I just saw the next video after this and it was construction noises not from a horse pawing although it really did sound like it

u don't have to btw its not square shaped. i only use the cotton pad with to u is the square shaped 1... if u don't have a horse witch u ovulessly don't u would now.

I'm not sure...Its not my saddle, so I don't know. (: Sorry!

my horse and the horse i lease both lift their heads up high! good thing im tall:)

fuuny story: I was on a track with my friend,, and i forgot to tighten the girth before i left, and i galloped, full gallop, and the girth wasnt even touching his belly, i nearly galloped along under his belly..

He's a Quarter Horse. (:

no you dont some people ride without any sadle pads

I am sooo sorry i have just had a group of snobby kids hanging around the house because they were my sisters friends and one got onto myaptop which had my account saved on and so sorry to anybody who has recieved horrid comments

Quarter horse. (:

No you dont have to ive never used two.

He obviously doesn’t want that damn bit in his mouth would you want metal in your mouth would you try to avoid metal going in your mouth I bet!

So why did you feel the need to say that??

you should use a square pad and your voice was not clear and why do have a red saddle

You don't "have" to...

Good video but no offence i really don't like your saddle

Hate to say but your saddle is to big in the tree

you don't actually.

The horse in the background pawing every couple of seconds is really annoying does it have like obsessive compulsive disorder or something lol

u went round ur horses bum ur menna go rou d his head

I know, its super annoying!

all your tack is too big

and way to far back

You need to speak louder

Thank you!
