ABSTRACT:
An inflatable saddle support apparatus which is characterized in a first preferred embodiment by an inflatable saddle bladder that fits beneath a saddle blanket on a horse and serves to equalize the pressure applied by a saddle and rider to a horse. The inflated saddle bladder is shaped to effectively fill the voids between the saddle and the horse and one or more felt or alternative pads may be positioned on the inflation chamber or chambers of the saddle bladder or on the saddle blanket to dissipate heat and optionally, to form pockets, and the saddle bladder may be positioned in the pockets. Alternatively, the saddle bladder, with or without felt pads, may be slipped inside a pair of fleece pockets attached to the saddle blanket. The saddle blanket and saddle bladder, with or without the felt pads and fleece panels, are then placed on a horse to receive a saddle. The saddle bladder may be inflated without dismounting by introducing air into an inflation tube which communicates with the inflation chambers of the saddle bladder to provide a selected degree of pressure equalization between the saddle and rider and the horse.
