About Us

Dr. Tracy Plough was born and raised in Vancouver, BC. She has always had a passion for horses as well as science. Therefore it was only natural when for her to combine her passions for medicine and horses.  She is a proud graduate of the University of Guelph, Ontario Veterinary College.

​

Following graduation Dr. Plough returned to BC and worked as an associate veterinarian and  completed an internship in equine reproduction.  Following that Dr. Plough traveled to Austria and worked as a resident at the University of Vienna with a focus on equine reproduction. Tracy returned home and continued her advanced training in reproductive medicine  during this time she also  took the opportunity to traveled to Australia for the 2013 equine breeding season. In Australia she worked with several large breeding operations, both thoroughbred farms, as well as a large volume of embryo transfer facilities, and this is where she was able to hone her skills in ET. 

​

Dr. Plough qualified and became board a certified specialist in equine reproduction and a Diplomate of The American College of Theriogenologists in 2014. She went on to establish her own practice, Plough Equine Veterinary Services in the greater Vancouver area of British Columbia Canada, which she owned and operated, until joining the Team at Pioneer Equine hospital in Oakdale CA in 2017. During her time in California Dr. Plough ran the daily operations of the stallion center as well as managed the ART mare programs for that hospital.

However, home is where the heart is and after a few years, Tracy returned to BC. she re -established herself as The Equine Reproductive Specialist in the area working along side the team at Meadow Lane Equine Clinic.  It soon became clear that the need for reproductive services out grew the available space, and so in 2020 Glen Valley Equine Reproductive Centre was established 

 

Currently Dr Tracy Plough is the only  Registered  Equine Reproduction  Specialist in the province of BC, she is an expert and professional in her field. She takes pride in her work and loves nothing more then playing a part of creating that dream foal for clients.
