Urgent! NSW owners please share within your horse network.
The NSW Veterinary Practice Regulatory Framework is under review by the NSW Government. This review is likely to result in changes to how equine dental care is regulated in this state, including which providers can perform certain procedures and under what conditions.
The review process is not widely advertised, and horse owners' voices are currently underrepresented in submissions. In fact, responses are due by July 3rd, 2026.
We invite all NSW horse owners to complete a brief, anonymous survey taking about 5–7 minutes. The survey will be compiled into a formal research report and submitted to the review. Your responses will contribute to the evidence base considered by decision-makers.

The survey covers your current dental care experience, your awareness of provider qualifications, and your views on proposed regulatory changes. There are no right or wrong answers. All responses are anonymous and will be reported only in aggregate.
We encourage you to share it with other NSW horse owners in your network.
