Ashlee's Horse Care Philosophy

"I would say my general philosophy is to work with the animal to try and become one with them, be a team, and work to learn what makes them tick. Every horse is different and you need to treat each one individually. I try to never force anything and make sure they enjoy their job and enjoy the process!"

Where are you based out of?

"Wellington, Florida."

Do you have any horse care pet peeves?

"When horses don’t get a chance to be horses! I think it’s important for horses to be turned out. If they don’t get turn out time, they need to be out of their boxes multiple times a day! "
