Description
We are a small Golden Retriever Kennel located in Northern Germany. We are „Golden Retriever Club“ (VDH/FCI) assured breeders. We live with our dogs and our other animals in a small village in a lovely rural setting. Here are no Discos,Bars or any other kind of nightlife and action, but a lovely countryside . We are looking for a volunteer who would help with the daily routine of the dogs, horses, cats and in our garden. When we have puppies we would like your help to rear them.
Experience with big dogs would be a great advantage but we will teach you everything you need to know.
We have three horses ( 10y.,24y,28y.) You have to feed them, looking for water and the fence every day, pick them up on the field and bring them back again after some hours .
The workaway person we are looking for should be able to take responsibility and have plenty of common sense. We are looking for someone who is hard working, honest, fun and easy going with high levels of motivation!
This position would suit a country loving person who enjoys the peace and tranquility of country life and is not afraid for dog, cat and horse hairs ...
