{"product_id":"training-pad","title":"Training Pad","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDesigned specifically for the serious horseman and used by top trainers like Nick Dowers and Clinton Anderson. Ideal for starting colts and a great training tool used in softening exercises for older horses as well. This leather covered pad is a safe alternative to using your regular saddle. It is lightweight, easy to handle, but extremely durable. It helps ease young horses into having a saddle on their back with the pressure of a front and back cinch. Protect your expensive saddles from getting scarred or torn up. This is a valuable tool for preparing sale colts, desensitizing spooky horses, colt starting, and softening up older finished horses, with strategically placed D-rings that offer multiple tying or flexing positions. High-quality, 100% pressed wool felt lining is covered with sturdy retan leather for durability. Two nylon long latigos and flank cinch included. Martin Saddlery strap is hand-oiled and hand-finished the traditional cowboy way. Some variations in leather tones may occur. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Equibrand","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56672359579951,"sku":"TRAININGPAD","price":549.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/2516\/5871\/files\/unnamed_86_7331e3d2-5bb4-4adf-9f4b-aa968e8207c1.jpg?v=1776090637","url":"https:\/\/nationalsaddlery.com\/products\/training-pad","provider":"National Saddlery Company ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
