Alpaca Health Requirements |
|
|
|
All alpacas must have a 30-day Veterinary Certificate of Inspection filled out by your veterinarian dated Mar 8, 2008 or after.
**UPDATE: All alpacas entered in or present at all AOBA Certified shows must be negative for BVDV by a PCR or VI lab test and said negative results and testing method shall be indicated on the Certificate of Veterinary Inspection (CVI) (Health Papers). Remember to bring a copy of your CVI for your Show Superintendent, as they are required to keep a copy of your Certificate of Veterinary Inspection.
Animals will not be allowed off the trailer until approved by our vet, who will be examining the alpacas. Any animal showing signs of an infectious or communicable disease will be sent home or quarantined. Please note that ALL alpacas, whether they are entered in the Halter Show or not, require health certificates.
No alpacas can be housed in trailers.
Exhibitors from outside the state are responsible for learning and meeting health requirements for interstate transport. Exhibitors from outside the state please note: Washington State no longer requires a negative TB or Brucellosis test for alpacas entering the state. However, we recommend that you always check to see what current transport regulations are in effect. The WA state veterinarian’s office # is 360-902-1878
