"..Is a breast
collar also needed with an english saddle, or are we talking about western
saddles ..."
I have seen the same sort of wreck with English,
western and other saddles. The same principles apply, and also the same
solution. The only difference is that I am told that Mules will slip a
crupper off every time, so my mule riding friends use breaching instead of a
crupper.
