The PVC 's Equine Interest Group focuses on the fields of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Science that involve horses. Equine events often include activities involving the general care, training, showing, nutrition, pathology, virology, toxicology, physiology, diagnosis, medical treatment, ethical treatment, surgery, recovery, and rehabilitation of horses.
