“Prohibited surgical procedure or injection of foreign substance or drugs:
Any surgical procedure or injection of any foreign substance or drug that could affect a horse’s performance or alter its natural conformation or appearance is prohibited, except for those surgical procedures performed by a duly licensed veterinarian for the sole purpose of protecting the health of the horse. How ever, no foreign substance or drug which is of such character as could affect a horse’s performance is acceptable, whether or not administered to protect the health of the horse and, on the contrary, is prohibited. Upon discovery of the existence of prohibited surgery or injection of foreign substance or drug, show management shall immediately report the matter to AQHA.
Alteration of Tail Function: For the purpose of this rule, normal tail function is defined as “being able to raise the tail to or above the horizontal plane.” See diagram below.
(1) The above prohibition includes application or administration of any drug, chemical, foreign substance, surgical procedure, or trauma, accidental or intentional (as to trauma, this prohibition applies to horses foaled after January 1, 1990), which results in, or could result in, alteration of normal tail function, carriage, conformation or overall appearance of the horse.”
