Wow today is exactly 20 years we have moved to Canada!!! 🇨🇦🍁
March 26th 2006, Denis Gobet hoof trimming and I arrived in Montreal with our border collie Skoal, and started this new adventure.
I worked the first 2 years as assistant trainer for Dany Tremblay (how lucky!!!)
In March 2008, we moved to Alberta.
Heatherdown Hills Arena was so good to us, I trained in their beautiful facility for 9 years until 2017.
December 2009 Mesa was born starting our own little family. And in 2010 we became Canadian citizens, so we call Canada home 😍
In 2017, Sawatzky Equine Services gave me a fantastic space to train, and I learned so much from them on management.
2021, Shelley Knott bought YKnott North in onoway, and had that convincing power to get me in!!! lol it is so close to home and Mesa school, it was a great opportunity.
2024, new ownership with Cattlac Ranch, I came with the package apparently!!! I love this place, I’m so glad I was able to stay.
So big thank you to all of you for giving me a WARM training home over the years 😍😇
Even winter can drag forever, lol, we love it here and wouldn’t change anything.
To many more years 🍻🎉
