Lori Parietti's Icelandic, Thoggur, is disguised as a Haflinger,
with chestnut body and white mane & tail....and he even uses a 36 cm Companion, like a Haffie!

Oh Lord, won't you buy me
A Haflinger colt.
He'd best be relaxed--
I don't want him to bolt!
If he comes unglued
Then I will revolt--
And buy an Icelandic
That knows how to tolt!

Congratulations, Nancy and Thor!
Thor wears a 38 cm
Largo dressage saddle

Nancy,
Just wanted to tell you we are thrilled with the saddle. Thor is comfy and happy in it and I, for the first time, got a saddle fitting right the first time!!! Your instructions on the site and by phone were really helpful.

I have sent a few Warmblood and Haflinger owners looking for a new saddle your way. I am asked quite often how I got a top end dressage saddle for a "round, stocky" Fjord! I make sure they know how to get to your website! And since Thor is a third level mover, he catches a lot of attention. Plus he does have those Fjord good looks!

Again, I am a very happy customer and just wanted you to know that our Duett Largo is great.

Regards, Nancy and Thor (Isvanphilin)

Dear Nancy

The instructor for our Saturday classes is convinced that the Duett saddle is the reason that Nicky is so much happier with his young rider, who is all of a sudden blossoming in his riding skills. Thanks again,

Jan Fifer (Special Equestrians Theraputic Riding Center, Florida)

Josie's owner writes: "The saddle is very comfortable, just as you said it would be. I am well pleased with my Encore. It is comfortable, puts my legs in a good dressage position and it fits my very round horse. I don't believe I would have been able to find a better saddle for the price!"
 
Thanks, Carol!
