**Adhesive is only to be used ALONG with Stitching the fleece to the skirt of the saddle. Glue isn't tough enough to with stand the use by its self. **

How do you care for your saddle equipment?
Tack can be expensive and hard to keep properly clean, but there are a few things you can do.Keep in mind you should not use soap on suede or other 'fuzzy' leather materials.After each ride if you are short on time, take a damp cloth and wipe the top and underside of the saddle clean, this will help keep sweat from building up.Once a week you need to do a deep cleaning, this involves disassembling he tack completely.1. Strip the saddle and bridle down, remove the bit and irons, let them sit in buckets of warm water while you clean the rest of the tack. This is a good time to throw and fleece into the wash, saddle pads/ blankets, girth covers et cetera.2. Moisten a sponge and apply saddle soap to the leather, get underneath the saddle if it's an English saddle, if it's a western saddle, vacuum the fleece or wool up a bit.3. Wash the saddle soap off after a few minutes and let it get nearly dry, then apply a conditioner, like Lexol Conditioner or Neatsfoot oil. Let it soak in, then wipe away the rest.4. Let the tack fully dry and reassemble after washing the bit, stirrup irons (metal only) and polishing up any metal or silver on the saddle and bridle.
How can you determine the maker of your saddle matching bridle and breast strap?
The saddle should have a nail head near the pommel on an English saddle, this will tell you the maker, if there is no nail head then look under the flap, it could be underneath. On a western saddle it can be underneath, on the stirrup fenders, or somewhere else on the top of the saddle as location can vary by maker. For bridles it can be harder to tell. Look on the underside of the bridle and on the crown piece as they can be stamped with the emblem of the maker or a serial number. For breast straps the same thing applies as to bridles.
What should you do because your horse are afraid for his sheepskin underneath his saddle?
I can think of only 2 reasons why a horse would react to the underside of a saddle like this. Check and make sure there are not tacks or nails that could be hurting her. Make sure that the saddle has a good fit, otherwise it could make her back sore. If this checks out OK smell the sheepskin and see if it has a funny order. If is smells bad to her she may not want to carry a saddle or rider.
Ways to clean a saddle?
The best old fashioned way to clean a saddle is to wet down a wash cloth or clean rag and wash off all the dirt and grime. Once the leather is dry, the go over the saddle with a product like Murphy's oil soap to get all the ground-in debris. Once you have the saddle all cleaned, it's important to oil the leather again so that it will repel water and be flexible. Neatsfoot oil is the tried and true oil of experience. A couple of applications of oil will keep the leather supple and strong for many, many years. As for the bottom or underside of the saddle, a good stiff brushing will get most of what occurs there. If that doesn't work, you may have to wet it, but if you do, make sure you dry it thoroughly also. DO NOT immerse a saddle if you don't know what the saddle tree is made of. You might warp or split the saddle tree if it is made of wood.
