VHC supports proposed regulation change regarding EIA testing
 

On February 3, 2020, the Virginia Horse Council Board of Directors approved a motion to support the proposed reguation change regarding EIA Testing.  It is the Council's belief that the best interest of the health of the industry and individual horses is better protected when testing applies to ALL horses where two or more are assembled.  Additionally, the VHC supports eliminating the alternate testing requirement with regard to sales or auctions.
