We have a 6 month health cert we can get
in Oregon.
You fill out all of your trip data on the back and send it back in at the end
of the 6 months.

Some states around us have
the Equine Passport, some don't ALL have Coggins requirements in state movement
and health papers going out of state, I'm in central Oklahoma. Some states we travel thru
have 6 month coggins requirements some a year, ours is a year. I wish
there was a nation wide equine passport, going to the vet once a month for
health certs isn't fun.
Meantime. The chipping
and/or branding seeing so many stolen horses makes me happy. Also seeing so
many people trying to re-unite horses with their papers after they've been
moved around and lost would be a good thing. Those that think those chips
can be 'read from space' and big brother can watch you and take your 'guns' are
a little bit 'over the edge' get a grip people. This will never
become what anyone thinks it will be they can't keep ag stations and coggins
checks up with the staff they have now.... Meantime if you have ever seen
a horse with EIA, if you know what happens with that situation, and I think
mostly requiring coggins of horses that travel in public means they see a vet
occasionally and are fairly healthy and not likely to pass on strangles and
other ugly communicable germs. I'm glad for things that keep my horses
safer... even though I do wish 'Uncle Sugar' didn't have to take care of
us quiet so much, you'd have to go back to pre-FDR and the 'new deal' to make
us free again. No more social security, welfare, interstate funded roads,
boy I wish.
'I can't see anything in the
current Animal ID proposal that will have a negative change on what we now have
in FL. In fact if you register you farm you are now eligible for a SE Equine
Passport which makes my life a whole lot easier when traveling with horses.
That is a good thing.
