History
Stephen Slender, DVM, had been practicing and pioneering equine veterinary services since he graduated in 1988. He first received a B.S. in Animal & Veterinary Science at the University of Idaho in 1984. He then achieved a Doctorate in Veterinary Medicine & Surgery (with honors) from Washington State University. Dr. Slender began his practice in Las Vegas, applying his knowledge and curiosity to general veterinary practice. Having grown up in a family surrounded by race horses, it wasn't long before Dr. Slender moved to Southern California to work with leading trainers on the Thoroughbred race circuit from 1992-1995. He then expanded his equine skill set to include Quarter Horse reining and cutting work in Texas. A short time thereafter, he started a practice in Vancouver, Canada, specializing in performance horses - Thoroughbreds,Standardbreds, hunter/jumper and dressage. He grew his practice for 5 years, and then the pursuit of diversity returned him to Southern California in 200
