Mounted search and rescue

[Karen Nesbitt <spanishequines@yahoo.com>]

I have been reading a lot of hype about the NAIS,  most of it not good 
because it is catching the small owners in the crosshairs of big business and 
government...Anyone care to comment on this because it is going to effect all 
of us as horse , dog or animal owners and all activities therein, including 
MSAR to the point that you cannot even take your aninmals off your premise 
without either a premise id or an individual animal tag of some description 
and I have yet to hear of any horsemen favoring the use of eartags on their 
horses which is the governments current proposal. The costs of this program 
to are an econimical disaster....of course, state to state things differ and 
once again, no continuity is harmful.

The Northwest has had a similar program for at least 10 years that I =
know of. A 6 month health certificate and current EIA will allow travel =
between Washington, Oregon, Nevada, California, Idaho and Montana. The =
cost is slightly higher than a standard 30-day health certificate, but =
very reasonable. You are required to send copies of the form to each of =
the states you have travelled in during that period with dates and =
purpose of each trip.

One thing to be aware of in regard to interstate travel is that there =
can be quarantine areas designated by the state veterinarian and certain =
travel restrictions may apply in those areas. I've only encountered this =
once, and that was due to a serious strangles outbreak, where I was =
advised not to stop or allow my horses to interact with any equines or =
equine facilities in the area,=20
