An exciting new opportunity has evolved for Stoner Ridge Farm!

Over the last two years, Robert has been working with Joan Miller, owner of Millersburg Saddle Company to develop the perfect saddle and bridle for gaited horses.

After planning and getting input from the gaited horse community, we finally got to see and ride the proto-type on July 16th. The saddle has an absolutely awesome design. It has a fairly high cantle in the back, a unique memory foam seat, adjustable, girth, and a specially designed rolled bar. The design of the saddle holds the rider firmly in the seat with an appropriate leg position. The bridle is hand-tooled and simply beautiful.

All materials used to make the saddle and bridle are from Holmes County, Ohio and construction is done by Arrowhead Leather, an Amish company owned by Dean Yoder. The saddles are constructed individually – yes, one at a time. Robert has the saddle, bridle, caveson, brow band, and breast strap at home making the final “test ride”.

Please contact him for more information and production dates. Various types of this wonderful saddle will be on the market soon. The introductory price will be approximately $800 and will carry Robert’s endorsement. We are excited to have played a role in the development of this outstanding, handcrafted product.
