Program Details

The role is perfect for someone who wants to experience something totally different, passionate about horses and open minded to live in a community style with VERY basic living. Back to the country.


Activities & Shift

feeding horses, picking up poo, cleaning feet and over seeing that they are all ok.


Rules

Be experienced or open minded to positive reinforcement way of training and very different lifestyles for horses. We do not have grass, big paddocks and easy access to all vet supplies. It is a different world with challenging animal welfare, which is why we are here to work as a team and bring these animals a better life. So it would not be suitable for people who are not open to different ways and "making the most of what we have".
