Re: RC: cinch galls

[SJTHEPHOTO@aol.com]

HI!

I've been using a neoprene girth from Gerres (sp?) that has little vent holes 
in it.  I really like it.  I have a small (14h) mare who is a little round, 
too.  It was expensive (about $60), but it really keeps her cool.  I've found 
that with good care (removing the shed hair and sweat) from the girth 
everytime with ride, keeps it very supple.

Do you stetch out your horse's legs before you mount up?  If you cinch up to 
your desired tightness, then pull the front legs out the pull that loose skin 
away from the girth, you may eleviate your problems.

Hope this helps!   SusanJ
