🐴✨ We’re with AAEP on this one! ✨🐴

A friendly request to the emoji designers of the world… equine veterinarians need more options! 😂

When your day can include everything from sports medicine and acupuncture to lameness evaluations, emergency calls, rehab, and keeping equine athletes feeling their best, 🐴 + 🩺 just doesn’t quite cover it!

We’d happily add a few to the keyboard:

🐴🩺 Equine Vet
🐴💉 Veterinary Care
🐴🩻 Diagnostics
🐴🪡 Acupuncture
🐴🏃‍➡️ Sports Medicine
🐴❤️ Happy, Healthy Horse

But now we want to hear from you! What equine veterinary emoji would you love to see added to the keyboard? Would you choose dentistry, hoof care, reproduction, emergency care, or something completely different? Tell us in the comments! 👇

Until then, we’ll keep getting creative. 😉
