  • Do You Love Your Limpet Saddle Pad?

    We'll be Glad to Add You to Our Testimonials Page

    My Morgan mare, Rose, has been quite difficult to fit with a saddle.  She is extremely broad backed, very round, has a quite prominent right shoulder, essentially no withers, and is just slightly downhill. 

    It has taken a year to find a saddle that fit both her and myself but then I had the problem of the saddle slipping, not only forward and backwards depending on the terrain, but also having the saddle twist due to her right shoulder pushing the saddle back.  It was necessary to use a breastcollar and I was just getting ready to add a crupper when my Limpet Saddle Pad arrived. 

    Of course I didn't do the sensible thing and try out the new equipment in an arena but headed straight for the hills. I then proceeded to not only forget to put the breastcollar on, I also didn't do that last girth check before mounting.  I have never forgotten a piece of equipment nor have I ever forgotten to check the girth. 

    Did any of this matter?  Not in the least.  The Limpet Pad kept the saddle in exactly the same place whether we were going uphill or downhill and despite the fact that the girth was a hole looser on both sides! Problem solved.  Thanks to Aline and the Limpet Saddle Pad

    I love the Pad as my saddle tends to slip to the side and the Pad prevents this from happening.  It is the only pad that I use.

    I wanted to let you know that the Limpet Saddle Pad is everything it is advertised to be!  I just bought mine for my flat backed, big boned and heavily muscled quarter horse, Memphis.  I ride him English.  He and I are a trail riding pair, but I have had the worst time finding a saddle pad that stayed in place and did not rub him and I have tried many.  I truly wish I had tried your product sooner! 

    The big test was a long trail ride this past Saturday.  He had no saddle marks on him whatsoever, there was no rubbing and no moving of the saddlepad or saddle.  I did not have to girth him as tight and the ride for me was the most comfortable one I have had on him.  I had back surgery a number of years ago and on the longer rides my lower back can become really achy and painful to the point I always carry something for the pain with me, but not on Saturday.  I actually could have ridden longer!  So I'm very happy with the saddlepad, to say the least, it WORKS!

    After buying a new horse and realizing my saddle didn't fit, I bought a Limpet pad and now my saddle fits!!  I did have my saddle adjusted but continue to use my Limpet pad and use it everyday.  It has been washed many times and is still perfect.

    Bought a white pad to use under my side saddle.  Saddle stayed in the right place all summer.  Best thing I've used.

    I had a serious case of white spots on a haflinger that could not be fixed by any saddle-pad combo.  I bought a Limpet pad and it made the problem go away completely.

    These pads are brilliant.  Kept our pony's saddle in place like super glue.

    --LA Jenkinson

    We use Limpet pads with our custom saddles—they provide cushion without bulk and do a beautiful job.

    My Morgan horse, Studley, used to buck 2-3 hours into a trail ride but since I switched to the Limpet, he has been a pure pleasure to ride.   I cured his irritation with a saddle pad.

    I have another testimonial for you.  This pad is extremely helpful for horses with a history of abuse.  It’s almost magical the way fear and anxiety melts away when you take the pain and discomfort away.  It’s a Great tool  for reestablishing the bonds of trust and friendship. 

    --Marlene Bogen, Scottsdale, AZ
     

    Having traveled with John Lyons and helping get his demo horses ready, I can say the Limpet saddle pad is the best for keeping the saddle in place and it fits every type horse.  John has done demos on everything from Paso Finos to drafts and I never had problems fitting the saddle to the diverse, numerous horses.  I have had mine for over 5 years now and it still looks brand new.  Definitely well worth the investment!!!

    My horse, Shades of Magic, would never let me mount without his Limpet saddlepad by Happy Horse.  This hot gelding TB (Bold Ruler background) is quite particular since he is so sensitive.  He’s one of the only horses in our barn that doesn’t need a massage because he’s wearing the correct equipment.  Thank you, Aline, for your innovative and necessary invention! 

    --Sheila Slawiak - Shades of Magic,
    Owner:  Equus Candle


    I have a young horse with a very sensitive back.  We could never find a saddle pad combination to suit her.  She was always a bit humpy when we started our lope as if she was trying to adjust everything to be comfortable.  The first time I used this pad, she hadn’t been ridden for 4 months.  When we started our lope you could tell she was anticipating the pain that would come.  After a few strides, and no discomfort, she relaxed.  No more fidgeting and rocking!  She had been under saddle for over two years and uncomfortable all that time needlessly.  Amazing!

    --Marlene Bogen, Scottsdale, AZ


    Remington Steele*++ and I are very impressed with your product.  Remington is getting old, 24, and has very high withers.  My saddle has been shifting around on his back lately.  I was so surprised at the difference your Limpet pad makes.  Not only did the saddle stop shifting but my stallion and I both felt much more comfortable.  I really wanted to test your product in every possible way.  I can honestly say I have not found any troubles whatsoever with the Limpet pad.  On each horse I used it on it solved a problem, if not two!  Once you have ridden with a Limpet pad it is very hard to go back to your old slippery, slidy, smelling pad. 

    --Patti Bailey,

    I had a terrible time finding a saddle to fit my Morgan.  With this pad and a treeless saddle, we are both so comfortable now.  Thank you so much. 

    --Charlie Child, AZ


    While in Colorado on a horse ride, I didn't bring my short dressage girth.  While getting 3 sets of horses ready, I didn't get that girth in the trailer!  So...I borrowed one a bit too long.  Okay on the flat - then we went on a trail ride that included a 1/2 mile downhill switch back.  The saddle NEVER moved.  Very, very impressed.  Use them for my therapeutic riding program also.

    --Chris Hudson, Stable Influence Charity Programs, AZ


    Excellent!  Solved all my problems, saddle slipping and horse with a sore back.  Thanks again. 

    --Peggy Scheideler, CA


    I was riding up a mountain in snow when I felt something against my boot.  I looked down and my cinch was broken. I got off and tried to fix it and couldn't.  Then without thinking, I put my boot back into the stirrup and swung up on the horse, before I thought, what am I doing?  There is nothing holding this saddle on but this pad.  Then I rode back down the mountain without a slip.  Incredible pad! 

    --Josh Barnes, CO


    I love this saddle pad because my mare's back gets really sore.  But now my mare's shoulders are freer and she can go for hours!  I asked my Mom to buy me more!  I love them. 

    --Cathy Fry, CA


    I was the biggest skeptic in the world But!!  This pad has so improved our show horses performance and overall health that I would gladly recommend it for any discipline.  It has become an everyday tool in our training program.  I no longer have horses with sore backs after a strenuous work out or trail ride.  I will be buying more at the Scottsdale show.  Highly Recommended! 

    --Frances Fry, CA


    LOVE THEM!  Training in Arizona is hot and these pads are the best.  Perfect for young horses and old.  Highly recommended. 

    --Chris Misker, 4dponez.com, AZ


    These are the best saddle pads ever.  Non-slip, easy to clean and very shock absorbent.  I use one on every horse I ride.  Plus when you're on foal watch and sleeping in the barn they make great pillows!!!

    --Jan Lode, Calgary Canada


    I am on my second pad.  I use them on my dancing Friesians in the "The Magical World of Dancing Horses."  The Friesian, being a horse with flat withers, makes an ideal candidate for a pad that will provide comfort and non-slippage.

    --Diane Olds-Rossi
    The Magical World of Dancing Horses


    I love these pads!  I have been using them for three years on all breeds of horses under all types of conditions.  As a trainer, it is important to make the horse as comfortable as possible and these pads are great.

    --Wendy Quiggle, KY


    After an injury, I couldn't ride more than an hour without my back hurting.  The first time I went trail-riding with a  Limpet, I couldn't believe it when the sun started going down.  I had been riding for almost three hours and my back still didn't hurt.  Thank God for Limpet and thank God that horses can see in the dark.   

    --Debbie Franklin., CO


    My saddle no longer slips under my horse's tummy (I can't blame falling off on my saddle anymore).

    --M. Barradell,  CA


    Limpet is the first pad I've ever bought that I made money on.  I had ten pads that I had paid over $100 a piece for.  When I bought this pad, I had a garage sale.   Best pad in the world! 

    --Kathy Barber, KY


    My Vet made me buy this pad!

    --Lady Donna Hecht, CA


    I bought a pad last year.  I loved it, my horse loved it, my dog tore it up.  I don't like having to buy another one but my horse insisted he had to have it. 

    --Janet R. Prescott, AZ


    I was skeptical at first.  I used a demo for 1/2 hour.  It was and is incredible.  I could drop my heels a full 1-1/2 inches more and the mare NEVER popped a lead.  The difference in attitude of this mare is incredible.  She feels good!   I brought back the demo and a check.   I will tell my friends.  I am really impressed. 

    --Donna Sylvester, NM


    My friend and I have had your super saddle pad for a couple of years.  We immediately felt more cushion in our saddles, as we do lengthy trail rides and comfort is nice!  So, I'm sure our horses feel better, too!

    --Bobbie Werner-Hansen, CA


    I have bought a pad each year at the Horse Expo.  I use one on my hunt saddle, dressage saddle, Western saddle.  They are the best.  I was training a filly with "mutton withers" and every saddle slipped on her until I used your pad.  They make the saddle stick like glue. 

    --Bertha Blake


    I bought one last year for a horse with a sore back.  Nothing worked for him.  Now he has no problems or saddle sores.  It is great.  I love it, and so does he.   

    --Kathy Puls, CA


    I bought your pad at the Expo in Southern California.  It is the first pad I think I've ever owned that I did not constantly readjust.  I ride about 40 to 50 miles a week.  This has been a gift to my horse for comfort and safety.  I love this pad.   

    --Colleen Raty, CA


    I purchased an all-purpose pad last year at the WSHE for my "fat round" Norwegian Fjord Horse.  This pad does not slip!  It is perfect for a round-barreled, witherless horse.  I can finally mount without a mounting block.  I came back for a dressage pad this year.  Thanks for such a great product. 

    --Deb Keevy, CA


    Love the pads, or I should say, my horse does!  Thank you.  

    --Gordon Haile,  CA


    Had my Limpet for three years.  I love it.  No more slipping of my saddle.

    --T. Foster, CA


    This pad really works! 

    --Kim Biggs, CA,


    I've told everyone about my Limpet pads.  NO SLIPPING! 

    --Johanna Peterson, CA,


    I bought three pads, love them.  I introduced them to multiple people as a trial.  They all bought at least one  Their horses moved so well and so much better. 

    --Sheila Rappleye


    I bought one of your pads last year.  I love it!  My saddle doesn't slip at all on my horse!   His sore spots and "dry spots" are no longer a problem. 

    --Kathy Thompson, CO


    I absolutely believe in this pad!  I ride a Paso Fino and a Merchador  Stallion.  I want my saddle to be secure!

    --Rancho Linda Marchadores, CA


    We have been very happy with our Limpet Pad.  It warms up quickly and stays loose through the back.  We also don't find pressure points when we remove it.  No slipping either!  Thanks for a great product.

    --Julie Stephenson


    I have been using the Limpet Pad for two years now and my horse's back has never been better. 

    --Joanne Asman, CA


    Since I purchased my pad, my mule's saddle does not slide or move around.  It is very easy to keep clean.  Thank you!

    -Gae Thomas, CA


    Limpet is by far the best saddle pad I've ever used.  My horse is convinced your product was made for him.  I'm sure glad we found you. 

    --Jo Fritschel, CA


    I ride side saddle with a Limpet!

    --Kari Johnson, Castro Valley, CA


    This Pad works great!  No slip.  Horse seems to love it.  Great buy. 

    --Susan Foley, AZ


    Great pad for multi-day or day-to-day riding.

    --Mary Hays,  CA


    We bought this pad in 2003 and love it.  We use it for vaulting and hippotherapy.  The horses love it, too. 

    --Lisa,  CA


    I have used this pad for 5 years, endurance, and would highly recommend it and would use no other. 

    --Sheila Scroggins


    I  bought the Western saddle pad last year.  It made me feel like I was floating on my horse.  I love it.  I never ride with any other pad anymore.  I am just a backyard pleasure rider and I can't say enough about this pad.  Well worth the money. 

    --Shauna Graham


    My sister and I purchased a pad at the L.A. Symposium.  We have enjoyed the comfort it has created for not only our horses but our bodies. 

    --Susan Baxter, CA


    I bought my first Limpet in 2003 for my old stallion and it works wonderfully.  Pro is 18 this year and we ride 3 times a week with no back problems.  I'm buying a second pad for my other horses.  I love them and highly recommend them. 

    --Pat Caruso, OH


    Bought our 1st Limpet in 2003.  WOW!  What a difference it made.  Back for 2 more.  Great pad!

    --Diane Wren, CA


    We currently have two young Kentucky Mountain Saddle/Mountain Pleasure geldings.  With the growth changes involved with any young developing horse, we've found the Limpet pads to be a wonderful pad to save backs.  Highly recommended!

    --Sue Cemaral


    We have the Western Saddle Pad and we use it all the time for all of our horses.  We use it under the English and Western saddles.  It is truly amazing.  The horses are happier and so are we. 

    --Mary and Kristina Snyder


    I  bought the Dressage pad a year ago.   It washes great.   I love it!   And I ride hard!

    --D. Brown


    Great product!

    --M.  Meriwether


    I bought the Western saddle Pad last year out of desperation because my saddle slid all over the place.  Now it doesn't move, even with a looser girth.  Washes easily.  No more sore back for my horse.

    --A. Jerrell, OH


    The Limpet saddle pad was the best accessory we ever purchased for our horse.  It holds the saddle in place better than anything we ever used before. 

    --Gary and Claudia Gallin, OH


    Best pad ever!!

    --Barb McCoy, CA


    This is absolutely the best pad I have ever used.  No more bucking, tail wringing, etc.  I use this pad on over 20 horses and they all love it.

    --Janice T., Calgary, Canada


    I was very doubtful that this Pad would work but we purchased one in Las Vegas and it did everything they claimed it does.  Very happy. 

    --Jim and Kathy Rauch, CA


    THE BEST PAD I'VE EVER USED.  Secure seat.  Horse goes much better with this pad.  Very comfortable. 

    --Linda Barondeau, SD
