Demonstrating incredible commitment to the welfare of the country’s homeless horses, WEST NILE-INNOVATOR(R) vaccines and STRONGID(R) Paste have partnered with the Equine Network’s A Home for Every Horse, a national effort to help equines across the country in need of care and shelter.

Protecting horses in more ways than one

Zoetis discovers, develops, manufactures and markets veterinary vaccines, diagnostics, genetic tests and medicines while supporting America's homeless horses.

A Home for Every Horse is a joint effort with The American Horse Council’s Unwanted Horse Coalition, which seeks to place, foster and sponsor America’s homeless horses. Other partners of A Home for Every Horse include Tractor Supply Company, Purina Animal Nutrition, WeatherBeeta, Cavallo Horse & Rider Inc., the Bureau of Land Management and W.F. Young, Inc.

Nonprofit equine rescue organizations can post free listings on Equine.com, the industry’s largest website for buying and selling horses, trailers and farms. The Equine Network is using its connection with more than 1.5 million horse owners each month to promote the program.

“West Nile-Innovator(R) vaccines and Strongid(R) Paste are pleased to support A Home for Every Horse and its mission to connect rescued horses in need of homes with people looking for horses,” said Andrea Wright, DVM, MBA, marketing manager of West Nile-Innovator(R) vaccines at Zoetis.

“Together, we are committed to providing every rescued horse placed through A Home for Every Horse with health products such as STRONGID(R) Paste to get them off to a healthy start so they are feeling their best at their new home,” said Kate Russo, marketing manager for Strongid(R) Paste at Zoetis.

Zoetis (z?-EH-tis) is the leading animal health company, dedicated to supporting its customers and striving to improve the equine industry. That is why Zoetis supports A Home for Every Horse in finding shelter and care for the thousands of horses in need of homes.

Building on a 60-year history as Pfizer Animal Health, Zoetis discovers, develops, manufactures and markets veterinary vaccines, diagnostics, genetic tests and medicines, such as STRONGID(R) (pyrantelpamoate) Paste and WEST NILE-INNOVATOR(R) vaccines.
