Is the horse experiencing rubs, galls or comfort issues? For me, if you're using a regular cut cinch and your saddle is not slipping, not rubbing and giving discomfort then not seeing where getting a different fit is necessarily needed. Just because its "contoured" does not mean it couldn't irritate and annoy either.
The first pictures is showing how you can load a horse by yourself if you have a problem loader, but its the same way to teach to lead also. Heres a few pictures to show as an example..Just dont tie her up the way the second picture is showing, I'm just using these pictures to show you what I mean by a rope over the rump.
watch him in the pature, if he trots w/o dragging his feet, he could have back or joint problem, causing weight bearing to bring out the toe dragging issue. I had used to have a lazy horse, dragged his toes, stumbled would even limp on the way out when riding, but when turned back towards home, that limp was gone , and he was high steppin it back to the corral..
