Horse Rehab, Cross-Country Chaos, and Florida Night Spiders with Ashley Carr. Dr. Chelsea and vet tech Trish introduce Ashley Carr, a longtime horse rider and eventer who pursued vet medicine at CSU, worked as an equine ambulatory tech and later in surgery/anesthesia, then stepped away to focus on producing and rehabbing horses. Ashley discusses how her surgical background helps her rehab cases like kissing spine and other chronic issues by understanding structures, healing timelines, and how horses relearn pain-free movement. She shares the chaotic move from Colorado to Florida—transporting 24 horses plus multiple pets over nine trips, dealing with tire blowouts, roadside delays, and Hurricane Milton preparations in Ocala—and tells stories about Florida wolf spider “eye shine,” huge huntsman spiders, and discovering a hidden cache of rotten, exploding chicken eggs in a barn.
