you lunge it Make sure to keep the horse under control - it may be jumpy or excited. I suggest lunging to get rid of excess energy and don't forget to warm up their muscles by walking and trotting them for a while before speeding up. warm up slowly and gradually show it things it used to do. lunge him/her to make sure they aren't to crazy. gooooooooooooood luck

∙ 12y agoAlways before the saddle comes the saddle pad, which is different than the saddle blanket. Whether you ride western or english* style a clean, dry pad comes between the saddle and the horse's back. A good fitting saddle and pad greatly reduce wear or rub spots that can occur during normal riding. There are many different kinds of pads and I recommend getting the best one you can afford. It will last longer and may protect better than a cheaper pad. Remember after your ride if the pad is damp with sweat to turn it over to dry and air out before your next ride.
Sometimes people confuse the purpose of a pad v. blanket. The pad is thick and offers buffer for the horse, where saddle blankets are fine but only over the pad. The blanket is more for looks than protection. Blankets are usually only seen with western saddles. Blankets are a staple for the western rider who shows their horse.
If you don't show a simple inexpensive blanket that can be machine washed is a good idea.
*The exception to this rule is saddle seat riders. It is common that saddle seat riders do not use any kind of pad under the saddle. I think this has to do with a closer contact with the rider's seat and legs to the horse's back and sides.

Well, it depends. Has it been broken in and is confident with a saddle on its back or has it never had a saddle on its back? Because if it is inexperienced with a saddle I doubt it will let you, but every horse is different.
Do put the saddle or the bridle on first?
From April Reeves, Horseman's U.com: Either. You can ground drive a horse first, which would entail using a bridle and surcingle. Or you can use roundpen, Natural Horsemanship or 'western' methods, where you get the horse comfortable with the saddle first and desensitize him, before the bridle. I have used both methods, depending on the future use of the horse. Both work (under professional hands) but will achieve slightly different outcomes.
