Soft-RideTM

Every good horseman knows that the health of a horse’s feet and legs is vital. Standing tied, in a stall, or especially in a mov-ing trailer can lead to fatigue and soreness, draining energy that would have been better spent with you in the saddle. By providing traction, support, stability, shock absorption and comfort, Soft Ride Gel Comfort Boots decrease fatigue and help your horse recover faster, so you can get back on the trail.

Soft-RideTM boots include exclusive Deep Gel orthot-ics and are the only comfort boot that can be used with or without shoes. The gel insert improves circulation in the hoof and provides relief of static tension to the deep flexor tendon. With options specifically for horses with medical conditions, Soft Ride Gel Comfort Boots come in 18 sizes, so you’re sure to find a great fit to invigorate and relieve your horse.

For the competitor in your life, check out the new Soft-RideTM Ice Spa. Great for pre- and post-workout or competition, as well as for therapeutic-icing procedures, the Ice Spa naturally and safely provides rapid recovery from inflammation. For more information, check out the Soft-RideTM website.

zBale BarnsSick of the waste and mess that comes with feeding hay? Bale Barns has you cov-ered—literally. Proudly made in the USA, Bale Barns feature a strong one-piece design that is both durable and easy to use. The Bale Barn is 8-by-8 feet, and 69 inches tall, so it can be used with anything from multiple small square bales to a large 8-foot square bale or a 6-foot round bale. No tractor needed: Just set the bale down, remove the bale’s wrap or strings, flip the Bale Barn over the hay, and you’re good to go.

Eight large feeding windows allow easy access and help eliminate the bickering, but with the slow feed integrated net, you can worry less about the overeaters and other free-choice hay feeding problems. Plus, when horses eat more slowly the way nature intended, they are less ner-vous and not as bored and therefore less destructive.

Many users of the Bale Barn have noticed dramatic reduction in how much hay they have to feed because it all ends up eaten by the horses rather than ending up on the ground.

For all weather and climates, try the only self-netting, covered hay feeder on the market today.

The Dr. Cook® Bitless Bridle eliminates the pain, fear, and distraction of a bit, allowing your horse to breathe easier, move more fluidly, and pay more attention. What a gift for that wonderful horse in your life! You can ride with in-creased communication, trust, performance, and harmony in your partnership with a calmer, less-spooky horse.

5 Star EquineThere’s a reason why the All Around 30-by-30-inch saddle pad for horses and mules by 5 Star Equine Products is made from 100% pure wool. 5 Star’s wool is an all-natural fiber that is flexible, resilient and, best of all, moisture-wicking. It keeps backs drier and cooler, allowing your horse or mule to perform to the best of his ability while eliminating such problems as sore backs.

The 5 Star Pad also stands the test of time with better overall performance over 2,000-plus hours of riding.

The 5 Star Pad eliminates the frustrating initial break-in time that comes with many pads. This great-fitting saddle pad conforms to your horse immediately, and less cinching may be possible. No additional pad is neces-sary, creating stable saddle placement with no slippage or discomfort for your mount that comes with the typical double-padding system.

Unlike square-cut pads, the 5 Star Pad is French Curved to follow a horse’s back contour; special attention is given to wither height, back-line variance, and hip placement. This makes the pad an optimal fit for every horse and saddle.

Visit the website below to learn more about 5 Star Pads and the top riders who are using them.

John M. Fallis Custom SaddleryJohn Fallis made his first saddle at age 13, under the watchful eye of his master-craftsman father, Slim (Myrlin) Fallis. Forty years later, the Fallis name is still synonymous with quality and craftsman-ship in saddles for the serious horseman.

The only crossover saddle from English/dressage to Western, the John Fallis custom-made saddle features a tree with a properly sized fork that enables the rider to ac-curately grip the horse. The saddle’s rigging is designed to keep the bulk under the rider’s legs to a strict minimum, affording leg contact, stability, and more control.

The seat design is nearly flat to place the rider into the groove and on the horse’s true center of gravity. The standard base cantle is 3.5-inches high with other heights available. Another added benefit is stirrups designed to hang farther forward than conventional stirrups, where performance horses carry weight most easily to assure longer, more productive rides.

Whether plain, endurance, full-stamped, or background dyed, these saddles are truly works of art—each is made by hand by Fallis from the best materials at an affordable price. Fallis Saddlery is offering a $250 holiday discount for orders received through December 31, 2015.

5 Star EquineThere’s a reason why the All Around 30-by-30-inch saddle pad for horses and mules by 5 Star Equine Products is made from 100% pure wool. 5 Star’s wool is an all-natural fiber that is flexible, resilient and, best of all, moisture-wicking. It keeps backs drier and cooler, allowing your horse or mule to perform to the best of his ability while eliminating such problems as sore backs.

The 5 Star Pad also stands the test of time with better overall performance over 2,000-plus hours of riding.

The 5 Star Pad eliminates the frustrating initial break-in time that comes with many pads. This great-fitting saddle pad conforms to your horse immediately, and less cinching may be possible. No additional pad is neces-sary, creating stable saddle placement with no slippage or discomfort for your mount that comes with the typical double-padding system.

Unlike square-cut pads, the 5 Star Pad is French Curved to follow a horse’s back contour; special attention is given to wither height, back-line variance, and hip placement. This makes the pad an optimal fit for every horse and saddle.

Visit the website below to learn more about 5 Star Pads and the top riders who are using them.

John M. Fallis Custom SaddleryJohn Fallis made his first saddle at age 13, under the watchful eye of his master-craftsman father, Slim (Myrlin) Fallis. Forty years later, the Fallis name is still synonymous with quality and craftsman-ship in saddles for the serious horseman.

The only crossover saddle from English/dressage to Western, the John Fallis custom-made saddle features a tree with a properly sized fork that enables the rider to ac-curately grip the horse. The saddle’s rigging is designed to keep the bulk under the rider’s legs to a strict minimum, affording leg contact, stability, and more control.

The seat design is nearly flat to place the rider into the groove and on the horse’s true center of gravity. The standard base cantle is 3.5-inches high with other heights available. Another added benefit is stirrups designed to hang farther forward than conventional stirrups, where performance horses carry weight most easily to assure longer, more productive rides.

Whether plain, endurance, full-stamped, or background dyed, these saddles are truly works of art—each is made by hand by Fallis from the best materials at an affordable price. Fallis Saddlery is offering a $250 holiday discount for orders received through December 31, 2015.

Spirithorse DesignsThe best gifts are uniquely personal, and Spirit Horse Designs’ Shadow Horse Hair Bracelet is a beauti-ful way to remember that special horse—or horses. The bracelet is created with five strands, woven expertly into a durable, flat, horsehair braid and finished in lead-free pewter.

Each bracelet is individual, with the colors of the hair used to best advantage. The finished product is hardy enough to wear every day and enjoy, yet beautiful and memorable.

To have a bracelet made from that special horse in your life, a minimum of 14 inches of hair from the mane or tail is needed, and it must be .5 inches (1.27cm) or the thickness of your pinkie finger. Any unused hair will be returned unless otherwise specified, or use stock hair.

Spirit Horse Designs offers free shipping on orders over $175. Because these bracelets are handmade, orders must be received by November 16 in order to deliver by Christ-mas. Orders ship within two to three weeks of receipt of hair and order. Visit the website for more photos and other products from Spirit Horse Design.

Savvy FeederThe Savvy Feeder makes a great gift for that horse or horse lover in your life. This feeder is the smart, healthy way to feed your horse. By using a stabilized floating grate, the feeder prolongs feeding 4-10 times as long as eating off the ground, reducing the chance of ulcers and eliminating boredom, nervousness, and frustration.

By keeping the hay off the ground, the Savvy Feeder reduces ingestion of sand, manure, bedding, and other things that invite colic, and its excellent drainage elimi-nates spoilage. The Savvy Feeder allows your horse to forage in a natural head-down position, correctly aligning the jaw and reducing the risk of guttural pouch infection.

The Savvy Feeder works just as well, whether you feed 5 pounds of hay or as much as 25 pounds. And with the new latch system to prevent the bottom from sliding out, it is better than ever. The Savvy Feeder is light enough to take on the road and is versatile enough to be used in a stall, pasture, track system, or hitching post. Made from super-durable polyethylene, the Savvy Feeder lasts for years. With a 30-day guarantee and free shipping, what’s not to love?
