Stuart Lindsay – BAEDT
Stuart started his equine career when he joined the King’s Troop, Royal Horse Artillery as a fresh faced 17 year old. It was here that he first crossed paths with Matt. Sadly a number of injuries cut Stuart’s army career short. Following this he completed an HND at The University of Wales, Aberystwyth.
After graduating Stuart pursued a career in equine welfare working for both Redwings Horse Sanctuary and The British Horse Society. Wanting to make an active improvement to the welfare of all equines he attended The American School of Equine Dentistry before undertaking a 4 year apprenticeship back in the UK. This culminated in him passing the BEVA/BVDA exam and becoming a member of the BAEDT.
Raising the awareness and importance of equine dentistry is a real passion for him and he can regularly be found giving talks and demonstrations to riding schools and pony clubs.
Outside of horses Stuart is a massive rugby fan although more of a spectator than a player these days. But if the Scottish national team came asking he’d be happy to dust off his boots. When not watching rugby he can be found either hill walking in the Highlands with his loyal (ish) dog Jessie or rowing on the River Tay.
