ATTENTION STAR VALLEY HORSE OWNERS: West Nile Virus was confirmed in two cases in our area. This virus has been present in the United States for 26 years, however, our valley hasn't seen any confirmed cases until recently. Please also note, there is no need to panic. Both horses are doing well, and this virus is not transmittable from horse to horse. As a mosquito borne illness, the risk of transmission is decreasing every day with these colder temperatures.

It's imperative that you vaccinate your horses every year for West Nile Virus (WNV). If your horse has never received a WNV vaccine, they will need one in March next year, followed by one four weeks later. It's important to do these every year to keep your horses protected.
