About Us
A little bit about the owner and how we came to be!
Valery Kennedy-Lower
Hi there! My names Valery, I am 50 years old and I am a certified Equi-health Canada Instructor here in southern Ontario. I grew up in the heart of Tottenham and have lived in the New Tecumseth area my whole life!
​
I started my adventures in the equine industry from a young age, working at Touchwood Farms all weekend and horsing around all week with friends. I took a step back at the age of 19 when I had my first born son, and returned when I was 35 sharing the love for horses with my daughter. I now have 2 thoroughbreds and 1 shetland, winning my fair share of dressage competitions with my soul horse Commander.
​
Now owning a farm for the last 7 years, I felt I needed to get my equine first aid done if crisis ever came to be. I owed the animals I hold so close to heart the safety that I can help until a veterinarian is able to come.
I took the basic emergency program in November of 2020 and wanted to share this knowledge with as many people as I could, igniting my drive to be a certified instructor in May of 2021.
I love what I am doing, helping the horse lovers all around help their horses because you are your horses first responder.
