AAEP Vets Help "Unwanted" Horses Get Vaccines

Donated vaccines for equine rescues

From old broodmares to pasture pets, to broken-down campaigners to horses who simply fell through the cracks, America's unwanted horse problem is escalating. Overburdened are under funded, equine rescues need help.

Intervet/Schering-Plough Animal Health has partnered with the American Association of Equine Practitioners to launch the Unwanted Horse Veterinary Relief Campaign (UHVRC). UHVRC is a nonprofit program that will provide core equine vaccines to qualified equine rescue and retirement facilities across the United States. Through the UHVRC, Intervet/Schering-Plough Animal Health will donate their most popular equine vaccines to qualifying facilities.

The goal is to help the rescues provide the necessary healthcare so they can rehabilitate, revitalize and, ultimately, re-home America's unwanted horses. To learn more--and see how your equine rescue can receive vaccines through the program--visit www.UHVRC.org.

Intervet/Schering-Plough Animal is for the horse, especially the unwanted ones.
