***Needing help immediately!!!!!***
Need help ASAP must have horse experience
We were booked until Jan 2021 but due to travel restriction we have lots of openings and need help with all sorts of building projects and help with the horses,,,foaling breeding and training ,,,,
We are now able to quarantine people on our ranch ,,,, it’s not easy but doable ,,,,of course it’s to take people who are already self isolating and we can pick up or can drive here without risk to our health as both Chris and I have serous health concerns. We are currently in need of someone who has experience working with horses....Halter breaking and ground manners ,,,Feeding handling grooming helping foaling mares,,,,the more experience the better but I am willing to train someone with horse experience,,,, The longer you can stay the better,,,,,
We are also looking for help with many building projects ,,, we do have separate accommodation which would be nice for a couple or people preferring privacy,,,,
We are an Christian older couple who live a quiet life on the farm where we enjoy our horses and mini dachshunds. Like to go to movies and enjoy anything to do with horses. 2021 will be a busy year ,,,,.we soon will have a few mares in foal ,,,it’s so awesome to watch foaling process as well if it is a blast watching the babies grow up,,,our ranch is an awesome place to relax ,,,,great for individuals who are independent ,,,we try not to over book,,,only one or two people at a time,,,we breed show and train horses,,, we also have rescues horses,,,we have horses in all stages of training ,,,also we have ongoing building protects,,, a huge barn and horse shelters,,,
I am a retired social worker,,,Chris still works and his work often requires travel so you may have the opportunity to see Alberta and British Columbia,,,,we try to take everyone on a few road trips ,,, so they can explore and see what a beautiful country we live in,,,, our usually stops are heartlands restaurant called Maggies.... huge western shop,,largest in perhaps the world ,,,, Tyrell dinosaur Museum,,,,ski hill,,,, hockey games ,,,, Canadian football..,,like to go out for meals try out new restaurants (depends on the season and your interests plus the length of time you stay) ,,, summer rodeos and of course the Calgary stampede depending on covid restrictions),,,,, so much to do ,,,, we do have a few riding horses ,,,, which you are welcome to ride but we are not a trail riding facility ,,,,
If you love to work with or train young horses this would be a good fit ,,,, or if you like to build ,,,lots of building going on,,,
I try to let people do what they always wanted to try or do as far as working with horses , but ,,,, you don’t need experience or if horses aren’t your interest and you like to build or learn to build you would be welcome here as well,,,although we are horse crazy here lol,,, please ask any questions you like ,,,, the more you know the happier you’ll be when you come here.... we treat everyone like our family and lots of time just sitting around talking or Chris loves games and cards,,,,
Please note if you have special dietary concerns or allergies please bring this to our attention so we can discuss options ,,,,
