Help SmartPak Celebrate National Equine Veterinarian Week

The first official National Equine Veterinarian Week takes place September 18-24, 2016 — and we’ll be celebrating with our friends at SmartPak! Here’s how you can join in.

Our friends at SmartPak have teamed up with Henry Schein Animal Health and the Northeast Association of Equine Practitioners (NEAEP) to create the first-ever National Equine Veterinarian Week! This weeklong celebration will be held annually on the third week of September to honor the equine vets who have been with us through thick and thin.

Here at Horse Nation, we’ll be sharing our own thank-you messages to our favorite equine veterinarians and other fun vet-related content all week long! Go equine veterinarians, and go riding.
