WHF is welcoming the first intern.

We are very pleased to announce, the arrival of our first youth intern; "Misha" from Newport  Beach, Ca. The last place one hopes to find a gifted young horseman. However  often people just get "misplaced" in life. This is exactly what happened with Misha. Always a country boy at heart, he somehow ended up at Newport Beach, and growing up was not easy as he always had a hard time fitting in, and was the happiest at their family ranch in Utah. It was obvious that both boys, (...Misha has a twin brother) had a very deep connection to animals. Misha was not older then about 14yrs. when his father gave him a 2 yrs old red mule to train, nicknamed the "Red Bitch"......for obvious reasons. Much to everyone 's surprise Misha did train the mule all by himself. his very favorite thing was to pack some lunch and head off into the surrounding mountains in Utah. Misha spotted our website and contacted me, expressing interest in an internship at WHF. I told him there was a 2wks-1mos trial, he agreed to it. It became obvious after only 2wks that he was going to be accepted. Besides being an excellent rider and very patient with the more timid horses, Misha proved to be a hard worker with a great attitude. His ambition is to enroll in an equine program at the some nearby college and who knows if all goes as planned....the young man might just have a job at WHF after Graduation!
