New harness
My newest project is a fine show harness for the Peter stone saddlebred and four wheel cart. This is for my personal collection. The cart was a gift. All that is in the picture is from a full days work

Boots!
For boots I will be covering sport boots, bell boots, open front boots, and ankle boots!
For sport boots you want it just under the knee and cupping the fetlock joint
For the Velcro you want the Velcro to go behind the tendon area. And then there is the fetlock strap that goes under the fetlock and fastens in the front
For bell boots you always want the velcrow pointing away from the horse
For open front boots you want cupping the fetlock and pull the elastic snug
These boots far for if the horse's hind legs hit the front while jumping and also protect against brushing (see rubs in above picture)
The fetlock boots are the same reason.
Boots will make your performance entry complete but use the proper boots!
