What is "Forum Horsefriends"?

"Forum Horsefriends" is an informative forum with horse-experts.

In the forum you'll find a seminar-stage, info-stands and live demo's. Our experts are available for all your questions about horses, and through the live-demo's they show you their way of working with horses in a respectfull way. In the seminar-room they will provide you with an abundance of information about their work.

We have trainers, saddle-fitters, farriers, veterinarians, horse-food experts, breeders of special breeds(Lippizaner, Frederiksborger, Noriker, Paso Fino's etc.), liberty dressage trainers, and we are planning to work with an Enlighted Equitation trainer who works with an Equisimulator.

We also have some 'Proms' for you, for example on Pferd Bodensee we welcome Christine Stückelberger and dr. Gerd Heuschmann in our team.

So no matter what you are looking for, we always have an expert in our forum who can answer your questions.

Forum Horsefriends is present at several horse-fairs throughout Europe, like the Equitana, Equitana Open Air, Pferd Bodensee and more.

We bring you the information you want!
