The Virginia Quarter Horse Association supports the updating to the Coggins regulation in the state of Virginia. We feel that anywhere 2 or more horses of different owners come into contact in a public area a negative Coggins test should be available for inspection by any person that has authority over the place of gathering where it be a state park, state or national forest, sale or show. Also, that all horses should have a negative Coggins test drawn before a horse goes to a sale or auction.
