Horse pulling
I grew up around draft horses specifically Belgians, my dad and I do horse pulling together. I have always been around the big horses for as long as I can remember, so I have grown to be very comfortable handling them.
Additional Information
I have a big passion for working with sport horses. I love to help animals get better and perform at their best, so sports rehabilitation and therapy is very interesting to me!
