The Rockingham Cooperative held its third Equine Wellness Expo to educate horse owners and address important issues in the equine community.
The Equine Wellness Expo, held in Ocala, Florida, focuses on addressing the critical issue of the veterinary shortage and promoting horse health. The event features a variety of educational sessions, workshops, and demonstrations aimed at both horse owners and professionals in the equine industry. Key topics include preventive care, nutrition, and the latest in veterinary medicine to help manage and improve horse health amidst the backdrop of fewer veterinarians specializing in large animals. The expo also serves as a platform for networking, allowing attendees to connect with experts, share knowledge, and explore new products and services designed to enhance equine wellness. This initiative underscores the community's effort to tackle the vet shortage by fostering education and awareness.
