I recently was helping a friend move her horse from the panhandle to the equine hospital in Gainesville ... we stopped (as required) at the Suwannee Ag Station (all vehicles with livestock must stop) to show the Coggins ... While the officer was photocopying her driver's license and coggins and viewing the horse, I asked him a bunch of questions about cows ... I asked what kind of paperwork I needed to transport my cow past the checkpoint. He said I needed my auction paperwork. I said I didn't buy the cow at auction. He said then I needed a vet certificate saying she was going to auction and was healthy. I then told him that my cow just likes to go for Sunday drives and ride in the trailer. That I would just be taking her for a drive to see the sights along I-10 and then home again. His jaw dropped and he said, well then, I guess you don't need anything !!! So I asked, then why do I have to stop here? At that point my friend kicked me and gave me the evil eye .. so I shut up and we boot scooted outta there ...
