RE: health certificates

Jonni,

I understand your point, however, if you travel to another state and have
had a vet pronounce your horse healthy you will still be competing against
local horses from the state the ride is held in.  The local horses do not
have to carry a health certificate to enter the competition.  I don't see
how standardizing (i.e. increasing government regulatory power) will offer
you or anyone else much more security as it pertains to equine competitions.

Sounds like you have a good vet.
