Descripción
I am running a horse refuge farm in the Western Algarve close to Lagos and need help with the farm and the animals. People with building experience welcome, I need to do some renovating.
This year I would like to find somebody with experience in working young horses, my colt is 8 and very small, so only small, lightweight people can ride him, but he needs to learn the basics. So if someone has experience in that field and would like to stay longer (no use having different people working him every 2 weeks), please apply.

I enjoyed getting to know Armgard and her horses ,dogs and cats.
The work was interesting and Armgard always explained how she wanted projects to be done.
Unfortunately I had a lot of rain in my two weeks of stay which made some of the tasks a bit more challenging.

Well, you saved my life too! Not only with your help, always when needed, what was needed, seeing the work before I could tell you, not complaining about the weather, marvellous! But also beeing the way you are, very uplifting in these hard times. Zagal is still alive, more cannot be said yet. Thanks!!! Armgard

Armagard just "saved our life". We needed to find a place to feel good and work with animals, in nature. Armgard hosted us very well even if this period in the farm was complicated.
We hope Zagal is better now, and for a long time.
Thank you very much. And see you in some years. Kiss all the horses and dogs for us.
