Wareabouts Training Stables

The trainer at Wareabouts is Rob Kroeger who was raised on a farm inthe Mutoko district of Zimbabwe.
He has ridden horses for recreation and sport, particularly Polo Cross, for the best part of 40 years.
In 2002 he moved to Alberta, Canada and settled in Turner Valley where he was introduced to
the western culture of "Natural Horsemanship" by attending clinics by Glen Stewart
and Jonathan Field. They inspired him to find his niche in the horse training business.

We know he chose the right place to start his training business.
Where else would you go but Alberta?

After a few years as a professional horse trainer at other locations in Alberta, Rob finally started Wareabouts Training Stables. Wareabouts is ideally suited to the type of training he does - Foundation Training. This covers starting colts, restarting horses off the track (or other competitive disciplines), problem solving and trail/recreational riding.

Wareabouts is a small facility where Rob has exclusive use of the indoor and outdoor arenas. He takes a
maximum of 6 horses at one time. Each horse will get the optimum training and care to be mentally collected to learn and become "Calmer, Braver and Smarter".

Rob knows that no two horses are alike and sets up an individual training program for each animal.
Each step of this program is communicated patiently in a clear, consistent manner.

No problem for Meadow

Rob will also help you understand the temperament of your horse and teach you how to work with your horse's "Horsenality".

Before the saddle or bridle

Wareabouts is located next to Kananaskis Country which provides miles of trails in the bush for Rob to expose a horse to a variety of experiences.
