Kathrin Renneke
The professional master of horsemanship (breeding and husbandry) is an experienced horsewoman and is an integral part of the team at Gut Dalmer since 2019. She spent her first year of training at the Westphalian Horse Centre before moving to Rietberg Stud for the second and third years of learning. Afterwards she worked for 16 years at Ammerland Stud, where she was responsible for the breeding area.
Kathrin Renneke makes sure that our broodmares and their offspring lack for nothing and that the business runs smoothly. From pasture care, daily feeding from our own agriculture and the care of the broodmares to the foaling and inseminations in spring - her area of responsibility includes everything concerning the well-being of our horses. She also accompanies the foals in their first six months and with her experience she lovingly teaches them the foal ABC.
