I also can help with nervous horses or horses that have a fear of a certain object. The only thing I can't answer for you is questions about your horses teeth, im ok with questions about the bit but not general health care for the teeth.

I own 2 horses and have been around horses for 15 years, I have broken horses and bred them and I also did a college course on horses care and I took 6 Riding tests as proof I could ride, and the judges were from the British Horse Association.

Education/Credentials

I got a Diploma in horse care and husbandry
