Tack - a term we use daily. Easiest way to describe this is the equipment (sometimes we call it “clothes”) the horses wear. This can be during ground work on when riding.

All tack has specifications, and fun facts about it!
It is incredibly important to fit tack to each horse and rider.

We’re looking for a western saddle to fit Izzy! We need a 14-15” seat with a 7” gullet width.

If you have one or know of someone who does please let us know!

It's and we're diving into a new series about tack! For our non-equestrian friends, tack is used to describe any number of items and equipment worn by horses when working with humans.
