Horse Owner, Boarding & Equine Rule Watch

Track horse ownership in the United States. Report only confirmed, source-backed items from the last 7 days: EHV-1, strangles, EIA, vesicular stomatitis and West Nile outbreaks and quarantines by state with movement restrictions; boarding cost surveys and barn closures affecting 20 or more horses; hay, grain and bedding price moves of 15 percent or more and shortages by region; equine activity liability and trail access law changes by state; USDA, state and interstate movement, health certificate and import rule changes; farrier and veterinarian availability and cost data; show and competition entry deadlines within 30 days and rule changes at USEF, USHJA, AQHA, APHA, USDF, USEA, NRHA and major breed associations; equine insurance and mortality coverage changes; rescue, adoption and seizure program news; and wildfire, flood and hurricane evacuation resources for horses. Prefer state veterinarians, USDA APHIS, the Equine Disease Communication Center, breed and discipline associations, state legislatures and established equine reporting; ignore unverified posts. Put the state, program or event first in the title with the date. Use high severity for a quarantine in a state with 50,000 or more horses, a hay price move of 30 percent, a show deadline within 10 days, or an evacuation order. Return no more than 6 findings. Push each as a finding with a title, a two-sentence summary, sections for what changed, who it affects, what to do, the date, and the source link. If nothing qualifies, push nothing and submit the run receipt.
