Lloyd is an innovator, entrepreneur, New Orleans native, and animal lover. He’s the kind of guy who hiked the Inca Trail with his wife so she would let him buy his first race horse (true story!). In the business world, Mr. Schwing has led successful companies based on processes he created, including Marine Healthcare Services where he is currently COO. His passion for horses has led Lloyd to his work with Bryant Rickman and the Spanish Mustangs of Blackjack Mountain, as well as Habitat for Horses and Remember Me Rescue. He is also owner of Lloyd Schwing Racing and his own conservation heard of Spanish Mustang Choctaw Ponies. As President and CEO of ThoroVet, Lloyd brings a unique background in business innovation combined with his experience in the equine industry. Lloyd and his wife, Anne Marie Finch, have 3 dogs: Chief, Molly and Cookie along with their  4 Mustangs, Sundance, Etta, Ms. Kitty and Star, an array of thoroughbreds and finally Schmitten the cat and split their time between Houston and their ranch in Kentucky.

Dr. Mauberret, DVM is an equine veterinarian based in Lacombe, Louisiana. She spends most of her time between Northlake Veterinary Hospital, and the New Orleans Fairgrounds Racetrack. At home she goes by the illustrious title of “Mom” to daughters Sarah and Grace, and 4 four-legged children (dogs Daisy, Saint, Honey, and Iko). Catherine has been part of the ThoroVet family since day one, as our Equine Director she provided valuable input in the design and programming of Saddlite from a practicing equine vet perspective. She continues to make sure we are always serving the needs of equine vets in everything we do, advising our software designers as well as our customers.

At ThoroVet, our animals are family too. We couldn't resist introducing you to Lloyd and Anne Marie's conservation herd of Colonial Spanish Mustang (Choctaw Ponies) of the Blackjack Mountain. "Sundance" the boy (named after the Sundance Kid), "Etta" (named after the Sundance Kid's girlfriend, Etta Place), Kitty (named after Ms. Kitty from Gunsmoke) and newest family member "Anne Maries Star" or Star for short. All 4 came to us originally from Antlers Oklahoma and are now living as rock stars at Lloyd and Anne Marie's ranch in Burton TX. where they enjoy mud pond baths and lots of cookies. These ponies are genetic treasures and part of history as they are decendants of the horses that accompanied the Native American Indians on the "Trail of Tears" in the 1830's. Their legacy is a fascinating journey through American history and has been a source of inspiration for our CEO, Lloyd Schwing.
