LOS OLIVOS, CA — The Alamo Pintado Equine Medical Center has announced the passing of longtime staff veterinarian Dr. Tyler Newton, a respected figure in the equine medical community whose career was marked by compassion, dedication, and a horse‑first approach to care.

Dr. Tyler Newton, Beloved Veterinarian Death

In a heartfelt statement, the center described Newton as an “incredible veterinarian and father” who devoted his life to the well‑being of horses and the families who loved them. A graduate of the University of California, Davis, Newton completed his internship at Alamo Pintado before joining as an associate veterinarian. His career later took him to other practices, including Bend Equine Medical Center, before he and his wife, Ashley, founded Tumalo Ridge Equine Veterinary Services in Oregon.

Newton’s sudden passing has left his family — wife Ashley and daughters Olivia, Keira, and Harlow — facing profound grief and unexpected financial challenges. To support them, a GoFundMe campaign organized by Holly Harris of Bend, Oregon, has been launched under the title “Blessing the Newton girls through this difficult time.” The fundraiser aims to ease the family’s loss of income, covering living expenses and closing costs. As of recent updates, the campaign had raised more than $48,000, reflecting the outpouring of love and support from the equine community and beyond.

Colleagues and clients remembered Newton not only for his medical expertise but also for his kindness, humility, and unwavering dedication to his patients. His legacy is defined by the countless horses he treated and the trust he built with their owners.

While details surrounding the cause and exact date of his passing have not been released, the equine medical community continues to mourn the loss of a veterinarian whose impact was felt far beyond the clinic walls.
