About Us...
We are two experts in their respectful fields sharing the same beliefs and approaches to helping horse and dog owners alike. The skills from both industries to crossover immensely, with striking similarities. We believe that being firm and having a clear set of boundaries is a vital component, but being fierce is just not necessary. Our approach is one of considerate and respectful interaction, using the psychology of the animals themselves, fulfilling their needs and encouraging better choices. Dogs and Horses, like many other animals, are social animals, who enjoy love and family life and from this, Equi-nine was born.
Bringing a horse or dog into your life is a major commitment. It's a relationship that can span up to 40 years, so it's one you want to get right. Making sure your animal is happy, fulfilled and well trained will give both of you more time to enjoy each other’s company, but it doesn't always go to plan. Issues can crop up from anywhere, for any number of reasons, and that blissful time together can turn into stressful engagements. It doesn't have to, and with our help, won't ever be like that.
''Our perfect companions never have fewer than four feet''
Our core beliefs...
Compassion
Having an effective and healthy relationship with any animal requires compassion, even more so when building one with troubled horses or dogs. We understand a delicate, non-judgmental approach is needed which is why we value compassion so highly to animal and owner
Understanding
Animals don't have a voice, so it's up to us to understand them. We've spent years and years learning the body language and psychology of horses and dogs, so we can communicate more effectively and listen the story they are trying to tell us.
Determination
With a never-quit work ethic, we don't give up, ever. Every single animal we've worked with, we've worked with through to completion. It's up to us to make sure they have the most comfortable life possible, and the tireless love they give us deserves our maximum effort. You'll have lifetime support.
Trust
Trust is the most important aspect of any relationship. It's the cornerstone for success and the biggest block in building harmony. It's also our key belief - Our work always begins with building trust with your horse or dog. How can we expect them to let us guide them without it? Our entire work ethic is about building a trusting relationship, to allow us to lead them to a better life.
Confidence
Our goal isn't just to build confidence and trust in the animal - it's also equally as important with you too. Everything we do, we will teach you how to replicate the same relationship and results too. our goal is to educate and inspire, to grow and blossom into competent, confident owners so you too can achieve the same results and more. We don't want you to be like us, we want you to be better.
