Lisa’s love of horses started as an 8-year- old during a summer at her grandparent’s farm. Lisa and her twin sister attached themselves to a pair of mischievous Shetland ponies, Candy and Nipper and never looked back. As a young adult she rode professionally before an injury prevented her from following that career path and she set her sights on Vet School. She graduated from the Western College of Veterinary Medicine in 2001. Dr. McClarty worked for Bear Creek as a student during her Veterinary degree and became a full-time employee after graduation.
Her equine enthusiasm has not wavered and is still her strongest area of interest professionally. She loves equine dentistry and has become IVAS certified and is making big differences in horses through acupuncture.
Lisa and her 3 boys share their farm with their 2 Great Pyrenees, Grace and Sara, a giant spoiled cat, Toothless and of course her horse Sonny and his pal Teacher.
