 11TH MARCH 2013 - UPDATE

 

 

British Showjumping would like to inform members of an outbreak of an Equine Herpes Virus - 1(EHV1) on a dressage yard in Gloucestershire. Four horses on the yard have tested positive. The yard has been isolated and along with veterinary support the owners are taking all necessary precautions to limit the spread. Three horses from the yard have competed in BD competitions in the last 2 weeks however those horses have tested negative for the virus at this stage.

Whilst EHV is quite common, British Dressage are taking the outbreak seriously and are putting relevant bio-security measures in place to assist in containing the outbreak. Members are advised not to panic but to be vigilant. Further updates will be posted on both the BD and British Showjumping website if required. BD and British Showjumping would also like to thank the yard involved for their quick response and co-operation in helping the whole equestrian community tackle this outbreak.
