EQUINE DRUG POLICY: (Complete only if your horse is on controlled drugs as defined below) The use of systemic non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents (i.e. phenylbutazone, meclofenamic acid, naproxen, etc.) or antihistamines are considered permissible if a) their use is declared and supported by documentation from a Veterinarian upon arrival at the show and b) the Show Veterinarian verifies the necessity of their use for a specific problem and c) the Show Veterinarian verifies that their use will not in any way jeopardize the horse's well being. The Show Veterinarian's decision, if requested by a Judge or the Show Chairperson, as to the serviceable soundness of a horse, shall be final. In the absence of a Show Veterinarian, the Judge or Show Chairperson shall have the right to excuse a horse from further participation on the grounds of unsoundness. That decision shall be final. Horses must arrive at a show free of medication. Any subsequent medications may be administered only under the direction of the Show Veterinarian. Any horse requiring medication prescribed by another Veterinarian must be accompanied by an explanatory letter, including diagnosis and dosage. The letter must be presented to the Show Chairperson by the competitor on arrival at the show. This information is then made available to the Show Veterinarian who decides whether the horse will be allowed to compete or is to be eliminated because the medication provides an unfair advantage over the other competitors or because the horse's condition is such that it is unfit to continue. No horse may be used in any competition or class if it has been administered a stimulant, depressant, tranquilizer, or any other drug which may stimulate or depress its circulatory, respiratory, or central nervous system. Any or all horses participating in the show may be tested by a saliva, blood, and/or urine test for controlled substances. Random drug testing may be done at any 4-H show. Failure to comply with the above Equine Drug regulations may result in immediate or subsequent disciplinary action. Penalties may include, but are not restricted to, dismissal from a class, a show and/or the Utah 4-H Horse Program.
