Truck, Trailer, Seven Saddles Stolen in Niagara Falls

At the beginning of September, the Schleese Saddlery truck and trailer were stolen off the parking lot of the Radisson Hotel in Niagara Falls Canada. Both vehicles were visibly wrapped and logoed, which made the theft even more unbelievable. The Schleese team was returning from a show in Virginia, which meant that luckily only seven saddles were left in inventory, however, the fact that the vehicles were allegedly stolen and taken to a local reservation to strip for parts meant that we were not given much hope that anything would be returned and everything would need to be replaced.

We ask for the public’s assistance in keeping an eye out for these saddle serial numbers should you be approached to purchase them:
