Horse Health Forms & Documentation
Ensuring a safe environment for all to compete
To maintain the well-being of all equine athletes and ensure a safe environment for competition, we require all participants to submit up-to-date health documentation before entering the grounds.
Before stepping foot on the property, all horses must provide the following:
- Negative Coggins Test: A valid Coggins test (dated within 12 months) is required for every horse.
- Vaccination Records: Proof of current vaccinations, including EHV-1/EHV-4 (Equine Herpesvirus) and Equine Influenza, is mandatory. These records must follow the USEF vaccination protocol to ensure all horses are protected from communicable diseases.
- Health Certificate: For out-of-state horses, a Certificate of Veterinary Inspection (CVI) dated within 30 days of arrival may be required per state regulations.
By adhering to these policies, Carolina Horse Park strives to provide a safe and secure environment where horses and riders can focus on what matters most—excellence in equestrian sport. Thank you for helping us prioritize equine health and well-being!
