Dr Tucker started his floating career while in veterinary school at Cornell University in New York in 1983 after starting his professional career with horses in 1973.

Since that day when his mentor showed him how to perform an oral exam by hand without a speculum, he has been perfecting the technique. After more than 3 decades and floating over 65,000 horses, he now calls his floating style The Tucker Technique of Horsemanship Dentistry.

Dr Tucker is the founder of the Horsemanship Dentistry™ movement that promotes the use of horsemanship not only in dentistry, but with anything done with horses. He is also the co-developer of the Horsemanship Dentistry School where this style of dentistry for horses is taught world wide.

Dr Tucker is licensed in FL, GA, SC, LA, TN, VA, NY, CT, MA, and WA. No license is required to float teeth in VT and MD. He can also work in any other state as long as there is a veterinarian asking him to come as a guest and they are the host. Every state has different laws, but in general terms, every state allows for this. In essence, Dr Tucker will travel anywhere he can legally work on horse teeth. He also is looking for people, especially veterinarians, willing to learn Horsemanship Dentistry™ in every state of the US. (Source)
