When owning horses you never stop learning, everyday something new will become apart of your everyday life, starting as a stable hand would be a good way to start your Equestrian Journey. Whether you have owned horses your whole life or if you’ve had one for 6 months you will still learn new things. I believe if you have never been around horses before becoming a stable hand would help you watch how the different horses behave and what they like and are sensitive to.
Even if you aren’t riding all day every day, just spending time with horses is rewarding and you learn new things every day. It’s important to keep an open mind and never bring a “I know everything” attitude.
interesting video. I am very exited to learn more about it and gain more experience.
I remember on my first day with a horsewoman she remarked that I had taught her something- like other comments have said, working with horses or any farm animal for that matter seems to be a job where you never know everything. I am new to the industry and am excited about this though, to think that I will still be learning even decades from now.
I believe that this is a way to start learning more about horses and the different teaching methods within the horse industry as it allows for personal growth
