I would say that it depends on where you live. In addition to what the other poster said, also check with equine vets in your area. You might contact a local university or college veterinary program and see if they know of any local ranches or stables that would need a hand like that. You might have to just hit the open road and figure out which ranches are the largest & ask around. Ask non-profit groups (such a TROT "Therapeutic Riding of Texas") - the pay won't be much but the experience may be life-changing and you may make networking contacts that could help you.<br><b>References : </b><br> I live in Texas where people doing horse duty for boarding is quite common.

I got a job at a Show Jumping stud during the holidays, didn't always get paid but I did get board food internet etc for free and had a great time with the people.<br><b>References : </b><br> Contact all the local studs and stables, just tell them your situation so what you are capable of doing and what you are interested in doing and what you want out of it, stuff like that.
