Join us as we welcome back Dr. Amy McLean from UC Davis to discuss the exciting world of donkey and mule shows. We dive deep into what makes donkey and mule showing special and how the industry can better support long ears in competition. For our legislative and regulatory update we explore issues related to hippotherapy and Medicaid.
