Equine Fear Free Veterinary Certification Program (2023)

I currently finished the first year of the Veterinary Technician program at Algonquin College.

I do not have experience working with horses. I have only ridden horses as a recreational experience back in my home country and I have really enjoyed the experience. However, I do have experience working with dogs, and also as a marine mammal trainer. I am aware that working with animals takes lots of hard work, communication, and being part of a team.

I understand that each species is different, and that my experience with dogs and dolphins won't directly translate to equines. Nontheless, I have always been characterized for being a fast learner, accountable, flexible, and open to feedback.

As for communicating with the animals, I know of the importance of leadership and being sensitive to what the animal is communicate back as to build a good relationship based on mutual respect.

I am very organized and efficient. In every new task or job I undertake I have always excelled at learning fast and getting things done right. I have worked independently and as part of a team in a succesful way. I can take the initiative to lead or follow a leader, depending on what is best to achieve the expected results. I have a good ability to build and maintain good relationships with colleagues and employers, as I am aware of the importance of having a pleasant woking environment.
