Visiting coach

We have NCAS Level 11 coach, Karen Spice on a weekly basis here at Dunsborough Equine Lodge.  Karen is a highly experienced and supportive coach for riders and horses of all levels.  From the starting of young horses, through to the fine details of competing at FEI level, Karen can help you with your journey.

Karen has been involved with training and competing her entire life and brings over 40 years experience to her coaching role.  Still actively competing, she has just retired her Inter 1 dressage horse and is campaigning her young horse currently at Medium.

Whilst dressage is Karen's personal focus she is experienced and willing to coach across all disciplines and is excellent and adapting to the age and ability of both horse and rider.   

Show Prep

We can assist you with your show preparation, including offering a plaiting and clipping service at reasonable rates.

Professional Services

We have been in the industry for a long time and we have access to a range of professional services to ensure your horse is in top condition all the time.  From specialised equine vets, body workers, farriers and equine dentists, we can help you book the professional you need.  If you are short and time we can even handle your horse for their required appointments if you can't make it.

We are also confident and efficient when it comes to  handling many common injuries, etc. and are happy to administer prescribed medications , implement bandage changes and we know some of you get squeamish or are not confident when you need to needle medication so we can do this for you too!
