I have gained experience while holding a groom position for an extremely busy Stud Farm. Working with young horses, mares and foals and stallions throughout my day. Duties included mucking out, feeding and I was responsible for giving medication.

I have always had a keen interest in all things horses. I’ve recently worked on a 1.3 million acre cattle farm in Australia where I worked with horses. This involved tacking up horses for long days ahead. Also feeding and maintaining the horses overall health. I currently hold a groom position at a Stud Farm where I work with young horses, mares and foals, and stallions. I’m gaining lots of knowledge and a better understanding of the horse while I hold this position. I help when our horses compete in shows. I’ve helped the vet with scanning mares, procedures such as caslicks and giving medication. I also help when the farrier and dentist are needed.

Working with young horses, preparing them for shows and riding lessons. Also handling of foals.

I’m currently riding a 10 year old mare which competed at a high level of show jumping. I’m gaining lots of confidence while I ride each time.
