Update on EIA for 2011



We had a good wake-up call last season with the EIA reports in the Gallatin Valley. Hopefully my blog below was helpful in explaining about the Coggins test and the disease itself.


This year, most of the organized events are still requiring a current negative Coggins test to participate, so you should be sure to have blood drawn when you do your spring vaccinations. It's always better to be prepared.


You will also want to visit with your veterinarian about the new combined vaccines. I think we are going to see some better choices for protecting our horses in future.


Happy Riding! Rosi Slater
