Dr. Sandi Farris

In addition to equine and camelid medicine, Dr. Farris also specialized in sport dog and sled dog medicine for sixteen years, and was one of the earliest members of the International Sled Dog Veterinary Medicine Association. (She also took a year off to race sled dogs in Alaska and Canada.) Dr. Farris moved her practice to Coupeville in 2010. An eventer and FEI dressage rider for thirty years, Dr. Farris is also an FEI (International/Olympic) veterinarian in the sport of Eventing and Show Jumping. Her professional interests include sport horse medicine and lameness diagnosis and treatment, equine reproduction, and camelid medicine and surgery.
