Oh, sorry--didn't mean to imply that was common to all Nebraska horse
owners--but I found it very distressing that something that is as serious as EIA
was being taken so lightly, especially in the NW corner of the state where
animals are commonly being trucked across into Wyoming and South Dakota to
rodeos, etc.

Coggins is for
Equine Infectious Anemia (EIA). And I know that there are a
number of horse owners out there who don't bother to get their horses tested

students in Nebraska that they didn't bother with it, and this was an area
where people were crossing state lines with their animals on a regular
basis!!)
Lisa,
Maybe your
"students".....didn't bother with it (Coggins), but let me assure you that
here in Nebraska we do "bother" with Coggins tests....
