Location: East Texas | What do you guys pay for health papers each trip? Just wondering what the average is. I have used two different vets and paid two different prices. |

Location: SW North Dakota | I've used the same vet for 20+ years. She used to to healths for free, as I had all the coggins and vaccinations done with her clinic (I spent $5000+ each year with pets and horses- all vax, castrations, coggins, etc). A couple years ago, she hired a young vet and the prices have doubled or tripled for almost every service and I now pay $30 for each health. Which isn't a biggie, except everything else is soooo frikken expensive (and the new vet is a know-it-all who doesn't). I've jumped ship and have our cow vet do the coggins and healths now and pay him $20 and normal prices for everything else. It's not a big deal, as I didn't take anything too serious to my original vet anyway. |

| HA!!! I have you all beat. I had to pay $95 once. $35 for the health and $60 for the call charge after I said I’d come to his house. He told me he was in my area and would just drop in. Then he charged me a call fee. I fired him after that.
Average is $25-$35. We make sure to map out all the places we’ll be going on that health paper so we can get full use of it, lol! |

| I spend $55 just to get the vet to my driveway. I try to bunch services so it spreads that cost across them. A health cert here is $40. So, if that's all I need it is $95. Don't feel bad Whiteboy!

Location: East Texas | a couple of ya'll mentioned, but is that cost per horse? Most times we are hauling multiple horses and I hate giving a vet $100 to say we are good to go.....last time he did not even look at them and just handed me my papers and a bill. |

Georgia (not sure if other states do it also), offers a six month event permit also. Once you get a health certificate on a horse, you mail a certified copy of it in to the State with a copy of the coggins and they will give you a 6 month health certificate for free.
