SCHNUR-DR string girth: a flat dressage girth for sensitive horses

The BUSSE Saddle Girth SCHNUR-DR is a super flat, adaptable short girth made from low-bulk polypropylene string. It's designed for horses with limited elbow clearance and is a smart choice for dressage riders who want to avoid chafe marks behind the elbow.

Thanks to its slim, flat profile, the girth sits close to the horse's body without restricting elbow movement. Handy loops keep the girth straps tidy and out of the way, while the roller buckles make tightening noticeably easier – practical for daily use from grooming to competition.

FAQ:

Which girth length fits my horse?
The buckles should always sit well above the elbow; measure the correct length individually on your horse and try two lengths if unsure.

How tight should I fasten the girth?
As loose as possible, as tight as necessary – at elbow height a flat hand should still fit between horse and girth.

How do I care for the girth?
Check it regularly for pressure or chafe marks and clean it to keep the material and buckles working properly.

Warning/safety information

Warning/safety instructions for saddle girths

Saddle girths should be selected according to the horse's figure type so as not to restrict its movements. The choice of girth type, material, shape and length should be made individually for each horse. It is particularly important to ensure the correct length, with the strap buckles well above the elbow's range of motion. The girth length should be measured individually on the horse. If in doubt, seek professional advice.

When strapping and re-strapping, make sure that the strap is as loose as possible and only tightened as much as necessary. The correct position of the belt must always be ensured. A flat hand should fit easily between the horse's body and the girth at about elbow height. In addition, the straps of the saddle should ideally be guided vertically downwards from the saddle girth, without pulling forward or backward, and the girth should rest evenly on the breastbone. Check the horse regularly for pressure and rubbing areas.

In order to ensure the longevity of the materials and to ensure safe use for people and horses, the components of the belt must be regularly cleaned, maintained and inspected for possible defects. Only use the product if it is fully functional.
