To help in the protection of the health of the horses participating in the Pinto World Championship Show, June 7- 18, 2011 in Tulsa, Oklahoma, please have your horses inspected by your veterinarian within 10 days of the show and have a health certificate completed and signed by an USDA accredited DVM.
The following information must be included for each horse:
1. A current Coggins test within 12 months
2. Horse’s temperature
3. The following statement: “This horse (or horses) did not attend the NCHA Western National Championship Show in Ogden, Utah from April 30th to May 8th, 2011, the Kern County Cutting Horse Event in California, May 13th, 2011, nor has it (they) been in contact with any horse which did attend”.
Health certificates and coggins will be required for each horse attending the Pinto World Championship Show, including horses originating from within Oklahoma.
Colorado Requirements on Horses
All equine entering Colorado requires an entry permit and health certificate issued within 30 days.
Wyoming Requirements on Horses
Due to concern over the recent Equine Herpes Virus 1 neurologic situation in several western states, the Wyoming Livestock Board will immediately begin requiring an official certificate of veterinary inspection within 72 hours prior to entry into Wyoming for imported Equine. The certificate must include the temperature recorded for each horse listed. The statements: “No horses listed have been exposed to any horse infected with or exposed to EHV1.” and “No horses listed are showing any clinical signs of EHV1.” must be written on the certificate.
