JENNY EAST

Jenny qualified in 1987 from the Royal Veterinary College, London. She saw practice with John in 1985 and 1986 and realised what a superb opportunity this was to learn from one of the most dedicated, enthusiastic and pioneering equine reproduction vets in the world.  She joined  the practice, straight from College in 1987, and became a partner in 1992. Jenny  is involved in all areas of the practice but has a particuar interest in  equine stud medicine. Her expertise in this field is such that she travels to many equine studs covering a very  large area .  Her reproduction expertise has  also  taken  her  to  the
Southern Hemisphere to help in a Queensland Equine Practice during their stud season for two seasons.   As well as being an expert in stud medicine, Jenny  is a very experienced all round  equine vet with many years of experience.  She is one of the CHAPS (Coloured Horse and Pony Society) Stallion grading vets and has also assisted in their grading processes for many years. She has also acted as part of a team of Veterinary Inspectors invited to Jordan by Princess Alia and sponsored by Emirates Airlines in connection with 80 km desert endurance rides in 1996 and a 120 km ride in 1998.

Outside of work Jenny’s interests include dancing (salsa, ballrooom, and latin american). Another hobby, although not so far away from work is the breeding of show, coloured, shire and dressage horses. Jenny has been successful in showing her own horses at County Show level and competing with her horses at Affiliated Dressage, so sees the equine work from all aspects.  Indeed,  Jenny and her husband, Robert Alsop have recently developed  the  “Chorley Stud and Flock” at their own farm just a few miles from the practice, standing The Shire Stallion ‘Trelow Commodore’ and the Homozygous pony Stallion ‘Painted Percy’.  Jenny and her husband also own 4 dogs, two  cats and a flock of over 200 very well bred pedigree Kerry Hill sheep!
