Job Description

Students must be at least 20 years old to apply.

We have 1 opening June 1 for a Hunter Jumper or Dressage student that wants to also learn breeding.

Must have an interest in our breeding program during the spring and summer internships

We are looking for Serious students who truly want to get the education to become Professionals in the horse industry. Students will receive dressage lessons from USDF Bronze and Silver medalist Grand Prix trainer. We also have a top Hunter Jumper Trainer to work with with students geared in that direction. Have the opportunity to show, train on quality warmbloods. You will have the opportunity to learn and assist in stallion collection, AI, foaling during breeding season. Regular duties include feeding, mucking, tacking/untacking, cleaning tack, turnouts, vet medications, schooling horses.

You will be living with others so tidiness is a key. We are looking for dependability, responsibility, honesty, self motivation, intense work ethic, a love of horses, and the ability to be a team player. References on riding skills required.

Students get the opportunity to ride all levels of horses and show.

During breeding season (April - July) students get the opportunity to get hands on experience in stallion collection, artificial insemination, tracking mares cycles and foaling out from our Certified Breeding Tech and our Vet. Very rare to get this education without spending a lot of money in a vet school.

THIS IS A 90 DAY Commitment! This commitment can be extended but is minimum of 90 days. 90 days give students a chance to learn and experience a Training and Breeding facility while improving their riding. Candidates who complete the full 90 day program get excellent references for their future careers and prove to potential employers they can fulfill a commitment in the equine industry.
