Your equine veterinarian shows up in the pouring rain, in the freezing cold, on the worst days — and the best ones, too. Now's your chance to say thank you, publicly!
Starting July 1, share a video (up to 1 min) telling us how your equine veterinarian goes above and beyond. DM it to us on Facebook or Instagram by July 31.
✅ Each horse owner who submits a video will receive a digital $10 Starbucks gift card. There is no limit to the number of videos you can submit, but only one gift card will be allowed per person.
�🏆 The veterinarian featured in the grand prize-winning video will be honored in person during the AAEP’s 2026 Annual Convention, Dec. 7-11 in Las Vegas, NV. �
🎬 In addition to the top three placed videos, winners will also be selected in three special recognition categories:
* Most Creative Video
* Longest Relationship with a Veterinarian
* Best Junior Submission
All submissions must include the owner's full name and the veterinarian's name, and focus on partnership, dedication, and care beyond the expected. The nominated practitioner must be an AAEP member to be eligible to win the grand prize.
Tag your vet, get creative, and help us celebrate the people who show up for horses — and the humans who love them.
