Ten years experience training horses and am a certified equine specialist with many references available upon request. Worked with horses from all walks of life and all different breeds.With horses being an energy based animal especially revolving around their nervous system in how they work/react, I work with horses in such a way to build a solid foundation starting on the ground. Each horse progresses and moves forward in different ways making having different techniques vital to carrying through the training needed.

K&G EQUINE

K and G Equine started out with Kevin and Gary who had the desire of helping unwanted horses. Horses that, for some reason or another, aren’t needed anymore. They are brought to K and G Equine from privately owned facilities, individuals who can no longer care for them and some are rescued from the meat pen at surrounding auctions.

K & G Equine is a place where horses have a second chance to make a difference in people’s lives. What started out as a rescue has bloomed into an equine paradise.

Although Kevin and Gary are both still dedicated in making a difference and saving as many horses as possible, K and G has expanded and has a lot to offer to the equine enthusiast such as outdoor boarding and riding lessons!

Please, feel free to contact us if you have any questions or would like further information! If you would like to come out and view our horses, please contact us via email or phone prior to your visit! Thank you!

Happy Trails,

K and G Equine

EQUINOX HEALTH

"Realize the Potential, Relieve the Pain"

Equine Chiropractic, Acupressure and Massage Therapy

Certified Equine Therapist providing care to Alberta's horses. Dedicated in helping you build the bond with your horse by increasing its willingness, health and happiness.

I am a Certified Equine Therapist providing care to Alberta's horses. I began my education as a C.E.T by graduating from Helen J Woods Equine Therapy School in 2007. Prior to that I worked in EMS as a Registered Emergency Medical Technician for 6 years. I also have 5 years of work experience as a Veterinary Assistant and have recently recieved my Certified Equine Massage Therapy Training.

I have done my best to surround myself with horses all my life and probably much like yourself was born with the "horse addiction". My career interests have always been medically oriented and I feel that I have finally found an outlet that is both therapeutic to my patients and myself.

I absolutely Love this work! I genuinely care about the health and well being of every horse I meet and there is nothing more rewarding to me than knowing that I have helped to ease an animals pain. I am dedicated in building the bond between you and your horse by improving it's willingness, happiness and health. I look forward to working with you both.
