Rose Cook is strictly a Canadian horse Breeder. Moving back to the country after our children grew up, I wanted a different breed of horse, something unique. While visiting the Royal Agricultural Fair I saw my first Canadian Horse and was sold on its history and temperament.

Kate RomanenkoKate Romanenko, Equine Hoofcare Specialist, is a resident of Woodville, Ontario. Several years ago dissatisfied with her hum drum work in administration and consumed with her love for horses, Kate made the decision to change her life. Since horses have been an integral part of her life for over thirty years, she armed herself with a certificate from the Oklahoma Horse Shoeing School in 1998, a two-year apprenticeship with a blacksmith, and began the work she loves.

Kate is a talented horsewoman who has worked at numerous racetracks and English and Western show barns throughout the U.S and Canada. In the spring of 2002 she enrolled in a hoof trimming seminar facilitated by an internationally-renowned veterinarian. This experience changed Kate’s entire concept of equine management. As a result she stopped shoeing horses and has adopted a new, non-invasive style of trimming hooves. The natural care that Kate provides brings instant relief to horses and has been found to be the key component in healing Navicular Syndrome, Founder, and bringing horses back to health – thus saving them from needless slaughter. www.natureshoofcare.com

d Steve Wawryk

Steve Wawryk’s life long love and passion for horses is what led him to pursue a career in the horse industry and helped him in creating his multifaceted company Horselife. 

Drawing on his 16 years of interest and participation in a wide variety of equestrian disciplines, Steve has created a brand of tack, most notably his Horselife bitless bridles and treeless saddles.  Steve offers clinics and seminars to small groups interested in learning more about bitless and treeless riding.  Steve can answer all your questions and provide hands on instruction to help you get started riding in this exciting discipline. The Horselife “free saddle trial” program is a great way to insure that treeless riding is right for both you and your horse.

 When Steve is not busy running his tack business he is writing his daily blog on all things related to horses.

Want to improve your riding? Steve offers horse training and private riding lessons to people interested in learning a no nonsense safe approach to “real life riding”.  In a very short time Steve can have you and your horse working in harmony.

In his spare time Steve enjoys spending time camping or traveling with his wife and two sons.  On any given weekend Steve can be found playing polo, roping cattle, fox hunting or participating in some other horseback pursuit.
