XY Equine Veterinary Services an SBS Network Laboratory
Drs.Stefania Bucca and Andrea Carli founded the newest Select Breeders affiliate XY Equine Veterinary Services in November, 2005. With 30 years of experience in the reproductive field between them, the doctors' goal is to provide high quality equine semen freezing and related services to the Irish breeding industry. XY Equine is based at Knightfield Stud, Straffan, County Kildare and is centrally located in the Republic of Ireland about 1 hour from the Dublin airport. The stallion center is still under construction; a separate collection area with laboratories, isolation and housing facilities will be completed early in 2006. The center will also have training facilities, an indoor area and paddocks for daily exercise. The center will be EU approved. XY Equine Veterinary Services aims to provide a full range of assisted reproductive technologies of the highest standards. The large influence exerted by the very successful thoroughbred industry on the Irish horse world has greatly disadvantaged the non-thoroughbred population. The thoroughbred industry officials disapprove of artificial insemination and frown upon veterinarians who are actively involved in assisted reproductive technologies. Artificial insemination and assisted reproductive technologies are therefore carried out by non-veterinarians and often times by people who lack proper training. For these reasons, there appears to be a good opportunity for a successful commercial equine reproductive operation that is professionally managed. The reproductive services to be offered include: breeding soundness evaluations of stallions and mares, management of sub-fertile mares, mare management for natural breeding, AI with fresh cooled and frozen semen, deep horn hysteroscopic insemination techniques, embryo transfer, fetal gender determination, assessment of feto-placental well-being and management of high-risk pregnancies. As an SBSE affiliate laboratory, SBS Ireland will offer equine semen freezing, storage and distribution as well as semen collection for cooled transport.
