County Saddlery- Georgia

I had talked to Aubrey a couple of times when I was out doing some saddle evaluations. It was a very good day when I was asked back out to show AP Graham ALL the County Saddlery - Saddles & Saddle Fitting jump saddles.

The hands down winner was the County Xcellerator. And, such fun watching these wonderful thoroughbreds find their second careers in properly fitted and designed tack.

It has been a while! Here is a post about - Adventures in Saddle Fitting!

Had appointment scheduled for Friday for an awesome client and his new pony. Received this text....

"Well, pony decided to scrape the skin off between his butt and various other parts of his legs. So far, no one know how. Won't be bringing him up to clinic on Friday."

I asked how pony was and got THIS epic reply...

"He is mostly just sore. Walking like he spent all day at Six Flags in blue jeans, after riding Thunder River at 9:00 AM" IYKYK.... 🤣🤣

This barn family right here! So glad that County is their

Lots of programs talk about their "barn family" - but how many of them show each other this level of support? We had T E N people(2 shy moms not pictured 😉) in attendance to support ONE rider at Chatt last weekend.

Our people-to-rider ratio at the shows is often 3-to-1. That means each horse/rider has 3 support crew.

Our barn family rushes to see each phase of each rider if humanly possible.

Our barn family cheers with pride for each of our riders. We cheer for others, too, just not as vigorously 😉

We share, and we work together, and everyone is working hard to be the best version of themselves & to help each other.

So when you see approximately 737934 purple people following one kid around like they are a rock star (whether they are riding Starter or Intermediate), know that's how the next generation 💜

Love this! Glad that I get to work with such great people. ❤️❤️
