No. 294. Lydia Gray DVM - What causes shivers in horses

Lydia Gray, DVM, MA is a graduate of the University of Illinois College of Veterinary Medicine (and U of I -- Springfield, where she did graduate work in communications). She has worked in private practice, at the veterinary school, for the American Association of Equine Practitioners (AAEP), in the animal welfare field as Executive Director of the Hooved Animal Humane Society, and most recently as the former Staff Veterinarian - Research & Medical Director for SmartPak Equine. But what makes her most interesting is what she does in her “spare time.“ From dressage to sidesaddle to carriage driving -- and from judging to scribing to putting on workshops -- Dr. Gray loves exploring new disciplines with her horses, including the versatile Trakehner “Newman,“ (may he rest in peace), and the up-and-coming “Stan Lee,“ a 5yo Dutch Warmblood.
