I’m excited for the members of USEA to learn how the PulseVet system can help our partners feel their best.”

“We are grateful to PulseVet to partnering with the USEA as its newest sponsor. Keeping our equine partners healthy and happy is a top priority, and we are thankful to have a brand committed to the same goals. Our event horses are a part of the family, and we are glad that PulseVet are focused on keeping them in top shape,” said USEA CEO Rob Burk.
