Health Regulations & Requirements

1.       ALL animals entering the venue must have copy of the Certificate of Veterinary Inspection (CVI) with appropriate testing including BVD negative results which must be submitted at the time of check-in PRIOR TO ANIMALS ENTERING THE SHOW FACILITY.  Exams must be done after November 3, 2006.  All animals entering the venue must be ARI registered and uniquely identified by Microchip at the base of the left ear.  The microchip number and BVD negative results must appear on CVI.

2.       All animals entering the venue must be BVDV negative by PCR or VI test and so noted on the CVI. (There is no time restriction on when the BVD test was done). In addition to the vet noting the negative result on the CVI, all exhibitors must include a copy of the lab results with the CVI for the Show Management to keep for their records. We remind people that the requirement of a negative BVDV test will not eliminate the possible presence of BVDV at the show, but will greatly reduce the risk of exposure. It is strongly recommended that all exhibitors institute on-farm bio-security protocols for returning from any show or other alpaca event to minimize the risk posed by BVDV and other contagion.

3.       Companion animals are allowed into the venue provided they are ARI registered and meet all health requirements listed for show animals.

4.       If animals are coming in from a tuberculosis accredited free state and a brucellosis certified free state, they only require the CVI with BVD results and microchip number.  Otherwise, they will require brucellosis testing within 30 days and tuberculosis testing within 60 days of the show.   

5.   AUCTION ANIMALS SHOULD BE TESTED CLEAR TO GO TO ANY STATE IN THE U.S.
