| In
conjunction with the Cheff Center For The Handicapped in Augusta,
Michigan and with their kind assistance, Courbette has developed
various equipment and teaching aids for therapeutic riding programs for
handicapped equestrians. Safety and comfort of the disabled rider have
been our prime consideration and concern when we designed this line of
special equipment. Every attempt has been made to make riding as enjoyable
and normal as possible. |

|
| Due
to the specific needs and requirements, saddles for the disabled are custom
ordered according to specifications supplied by the buying party. Please
allow eight to twelve weeks for delivery. |

| Made
of two pieces of 5/8" wide nylon webbing with snaps at both ends. They
tie to the D-rings in the front of the saddle, slip through the browband
loops and from there snap to the bit rings. Prevents the pony from reaching
down or grazing, which could cause the unbalanced rider to be pulled forward.
Fully adjustable. Installs in any bridle.

| For
riders with tight heel cords or weak ankle muscles, Devonshire boots are
recommended to prevent the feet from sliding through open stirrups or rubbing
the ankles sore. This type of special stirrup provides a solid base for
the ball of the foot and aids in keeping the toes up and the heels down.
A sturdy leather housing with a boxed toe part is molded around stainless
steel fillis stirrups.
