JUST PASSING - About Us

ABOUT GREG ALEXANDER, the man behind Just Passing

Greg Alexander demonstrated his natural affinity for horses, cattle and other animals from an early age, growing up on a mixed farm on the northeast edge of Calgary. He put that experience to work, running his own grain and livestock operation for 30 years. Off the farm, he also drove as a commercial line-haul truck driver on the Calgary-Vancouver run through the Rockies.

In the late 90's, Greg decided to put his equine skills into designing, constructing and operating an 85-horse boarding facility and riding arena near Airdrie. Later, he relocated to the Water Valley area and built a second boarding/riding facility. His custom horse transport business grew as a natural extension of these.

Working with livestock his entire life, Greg has gained extensive experience with a broad scope of veterinary conditions, procedures, and medications. This includes hands-on practical experience with equine first-aid as well as daily treatment and care.

Greg's calm, competent personality enhances his natural ability in handling all animals, especially horses. He has also attended numerous natural horsemanship clinics, with well known horsemen like Josh Nichol, Jonathan Field, Pat Parelli, and John Lyons.

In addition, Greg is a longtime volunteer with the Calgary Stampede, serving two years as Committtee Chairman. He is a former leader of 4-H and the local Pony Club. He has served as President of the Alberta Sheep Breeders Association and the Western Suffolk Sire Reference Association.

Greg's goal with Just Passing is to provide necessary services for other animal lovers in their time of need. He is devoted to treating people and animals with dignity, compassion and respect.
