Welcome to VAhorsevet Website

Dr. Ley is a board certified theriogenologist with over 50 years experience in riding, owning, managing, treating, and breeding horses. As intern, resident, and faculty member he taught hundreds of graduate veterinarians at the University of California-Davis, Texas A&M University, Virginia Tech (VMRCVM), and Oklahoma State University. He developed the FoalWatch™ test kit while at Virgoinia Tech. During his academic / professorial years he contributed to (i.e., author or co-author) more than 70 articles in scientific, refereed publications, multiple book chapters, and one book, Broodmare Reproduction for the Equine Practitioner (Teton New Media, Jackson Hole, WY, USA, 2004, 255pp).

Today his professional services are offered through ambulatory or farm calls. Dr. Ley has limited his practice to reproductive / breeding management of mares and stallions, but wellness care is an integral part of breeding soundness and offers this service to non-breeding clientele as well.
