 In recent weeks, Dr. Kyla has
limited the number of barns that she travels to due to the EHV-1 outbreak, and
has been using biosecurity measures to deter the spread of the disease between
horses, as we mentioned here. We've heard questions from
horse owners across the state about the spread of the disease and the status of
the horses that have been tested. In an effort to make it easier for you
to find accurate and current information about EHV-1 in Minnesota, we've
compiled some links to helpful articles, handouts, and videos on the web. Updates from Local Horse Shows: For those of you considering bringing your horses to the
Minnesota Horse Expo (April 25 – 27) at the Minnesota State Fairgrounds, it’s
important to read this note from Tracy A. Turner, DVM. UPDATE 4/10/14 from the Horse Expo's Facebook Page - no outside horses from private farms or breed registries will be allowed this year. Update on refunds for the FASH Spring Horse Show Facebook Pages to
