The HorseSaddleShop.com Staff Reveal their Top Christmas Gifts for Horse Lovers


If you don’t own a horse, you might sympathize with Mark Twain when he said, “I can always tell which is the front end of a horse, but beyond that, my art is not above the ordinary.” Many people are purchasing a gift for a horse lover this Christmas season. Yet it’s difficult to buy for these recipients without a western enthusiast’s heart. That’s why HorseSaddleShop.com has put together a Christmas Gift List for Horse Lovers containing items which most horse owners would love to receive. Not only does it spark the imagination of horse owners in creating their requests, but it also aids the givers who may need help buying for them.

Horse lovers are passionate about the members of their family---those in the pasture and in the house. But despite the joys of training, riding, and showing, owning a horse can be expensive. The Christmas season becomes an opportunity to provide for needs and splurge a little. A gift for a horse and its owner is unlike other gifts in that it not only fills a need or desire, but also provides a better experience for horse and rider. The trails are more enjoyable, the showman more confident, the horse more comfortable; someone just might be running out to the stable on Christmas day.

Another issue in selecting a gift for a horse owner is secrecy. Without knowing how to select the perfect fit, choosing a saddle can be a daunting task. HorseSaddleShop.com is proud to offer the resources even a beginner can use to buy their first saddle or upgrade the saddle of a loved one. From choosing the right seat size to downloadable gullet templates, the site has every aspect of saddle purchasing covered. Their staff members also offer years of experience and are able to help customers choose a saddle over the phone while maintaining the confidentiality that’s crucial to Christmas surprises.

The top posters of DailyEquine.com, valued voices of experience and knowledge on the western forum, also selected their best ideas for Christmas gifts from the Horse Saddle Shop. Their choices range from brass bridle brackets to new saddles, helmets to bits.

So whether the gift under the tree is for the local John Wayne or Mr. Ed, HorseSaddleShop.com has it covered.
