Dr. Vivrette started Triangle Equine in 2001 to provide horses and horse owners in central North Carolina with outstanding care of performance and pleasure horses. She strives to include the horse owner, horse trainer and farrier as parts of the team to improve horse health and athletic performance. Her experience with both English and Western competition horses allows her to understand the problems with, and therapies available for, performance horses. She brings a special touch to equine practice with expertise in internal medicine, reproduction and preventive medicine. Dr. Vivrette is a FEI licensed veterinarian. This allows her to help you with horse show competition and medications rules.
“I was raised in Northern California. My family moved to Central California on my 13th birthday. I was given one present – a brand new horse halter and lead rope. It was green. I stopped complaining about having to leave my friends behind. I got into the car – something wonderful was about to happen. Within a couple of months we purchased my first horse – a quarter horse mare that I named “Rita”. For several years my dad and I went to 4H gatherings, horse shows and gymkhanas. I remember when I won my first ribbon. It was 5th place in barrel racing. My dad and I hugged each other and cried with joy. Owning a horse and participating in 4H sparked my interest to become a veterinarian.” (Source)
