I am looking for English riding tack and grooming supplies near Waterloo, or Baden, Ontario, Canada. If anybody is selling please tell me what you are selling. I am getting a new horse and it only comes with blanket, and halter. Thanks in advance!
I don’t know about Canada but I would suggest ordering stuff online from Dover Saddlery (www.doversaddlery.com) or Bit of Britian (www.bitofbritain.com). I have used both and they have everything you might need, except for grain and hay, and have excellent costomer service.
This is a few of the lastest arabian halters and a costume I have been working on since my last video. I am taking special custom made orders if there is a certain colour/design you are wanting. Made to suit Breyer and Peter Stone Model Horses. See you all again soon!

My local stabes put it on first, it is brown and isn’t leather or rubber (this is at my stables, may be different somewhere else) and it goes in between the horse’s leg, and the buckle faces upwards and it somehow attaches to the saddle.
Could you please identify this piece of tack and how to attach it to the saddle?
It’s a breastplate – but how do I attach it to the saddle?
it isn’t a martingale, sorry but i don’t have a picture.
That sounds like a breastplate. Like this. https://secure-server-connection.co.uk/libbystack/shop/site_images/t_95_01.jpg
Its purpose is to keep the saddle from slipping back.
Here is a website about it.

It gives a lot of information about the different kinds of breastplates and their purposes. Hope I helped! Best of luck!
I clean tack(etc.) at my stable and it takes a LONG time to do a bridle! Any hints on this or other horse work jobs(ie; cleaning dirty bedding out of stalls)????? Much appreaciated! I’m cleaning the enitre bridles. ALSO how do i clean a GRand Prix bridle? thanks!
Use a liquid leather cleaner and a toothbrush instead of a rag. The tooth brush scrubs away dirt soooo effectively.
I’ve also taken a soft bristed hand brush that was too frayed to use on the horses anymore and put the bridle on a nail about a food above my head on a clean post or board, sprayed the cleaner on and worked in long strokes. I only go back to the tooth brush for the smaller areas. After that wipe it down with a cloth (or follow other directions on the cleaner if there’s more then wipe it down with a cloth). Hand the nail high enough so the reins don’t touch the ground.
On all my non leather stuff I just throw it in the wash and dry in the dryer. I do this with ropes and halters made with nylon too. Or you can hang them on the line to dry.
I wish I could help you with the Grand Prix bridle but I’ve never cleaned one…I’d assume if it was leather the methods would be the same. For sterling silver conches or other ornate items clean those last with a good silver polish. Try not to get the silver polish on the leather…
Hope this helps some…
Also, on soiled bedding what I do is rake it all to one corner then bring the wheelbarrow into the stall and fork it all in at once. Then I use a shovel to scoop the rest and then wash. It takes me about 10 minutes to do each stall. Another option is to take a trash can with a bag in it to do the job. A large trash can with a board srewed to the bottom with wheels works too. I always do my morning feeding first then I go eat breakfast…After that I do my stall cleaning and other chores. That way they finish eating and making other messes and I know the bedding stays cleaner, longer. It’s all about multitasking for me…
i just started riding this horse and the tack room is filled with leather like bridals,western saddles, bits ,different head pieces,and training equipment the owner of it all asked me to clean it but it is my first time doing it and the leather is really old so i don’t want to mess it up
so i was wondering what would be a good brand of saddle soap and what type of clothes and sponges should i get?
and if you have any advise on how to clean it that would be great thanks.
My friend uses Fiebing’s Saddle Soap. I recently bought some and it works really well; no greasy or filmy residue left over on it. I like to use a nice soft old rag or really soft sponge that they use on cars for polishing.

On the page, it’s the first result.
Hope this helps!
Mainly looking to trade for Traditionals – can be bodies without breaks/chips/painted. Same rules apply with the tack as with my models for trade/sale. PM me with offers!
