Just a reminder as CT fair season is upon us: Horses exhibiting at Connecticut fairs (including horse pulls) DO need a certificate of veterinary inspection (CVI, aka Health Certificate). We have been informed horses without proper documentation may be turned away.
A link to the 2026 fair requirements by species is included below, but feel free to call if you have questions or to make an appointment to get your examinations.
