A lovely little job to suit anyone with some time on a Sunday but doesn’t want to lose their whole day!
Perfect to still fit in family time, studies or just time to R&R!!

Our Sunday groom is off to Uni….it’s the perfect role for local student with equine experience or someone wanting to earn some extra cash!

AM - approx 3hrs maybe a bit more in winter.

PM- approx 2hrs maybe more in winter.

Potentially the afternoons only could be an option for someone who fancies a few hours horsing around as I’ve had interest by someone who can only commit to a morning.

PM me if interested. Must have Equine experience.
Would also suit someone local due to the twice a day shifts. We are in Great Missenden.

We feel so lucky every year that these beautiful fun birds come back and nest at AmRose!
This video is in one of the shelters 🥰

🌍 Did You Know? 🐦

Every year, swallows make one of the most remarkable journeys in the natural world, migrating between South Africa and the UK.

These tiny birds travel up to 10,000 km (6,200 miles) each way, crossing deserts, mountains, and seas to return to the same breeding grounds year after year. Despite weighing less than 25 grams, they navigate thousands of miles with incredible accuracy.

Swallows arrive in the UK during spring to breed and raise their young, before heading back to the warmer climates of southern Africa for the winter.

Their epic migration is a powerful reminder of the extraordinary endurance and instinct found in nature.

Have you ever noticed a horse lying down while the others stand nearby? 🐴

It’s a common sight in healthy horse herds and usually nothing to worry about. Horses do lie down to rest and enter deep sleep, something they can’t fully achieve while standing. Because lying down makes them more vulnerable, herd mates often remain standing around them.

This behavior is part of a horse’s natural survival instinct. The standing horses stay alert and keep watch while their companion rests, creating a sense of safety within the herd. Later, the roles may switch, allowing each horse a chance to relax.

It’s a beautiful reminder of how horses rely on one another, using trust, teamwork, and instinct to stay safe and healthy. ❤️
