An open letter to all Friesian Lovers,
January 15, 2009

As many of you are aware, a thirteen year old Friesian Stallion has tested positive for CEM. To our great disappointment, that horse is our beloved Nanning. We are now working with State and Federal authorities to A) cure Nanning, B) minimize the potential spread of the infection and C) determine the source of Nanning's infection. We want to assure everyone that Nanning 374 LLC is cooperating fully with the authorities to actively assist in the resolution of this outbreak. For clarification, CEM is very treatable and is seldom transmitted by way of artificial insemination. It is not life threatening to horses and is not contagious to humans. Owners of mares that have bred with Nanning will be contacted by your State or Provincial Departments of Agriculture or Resources.. We will continue to share information with the public as it becomes available. We very much appreciate your patience as we work through this very difficult period of time. If you do have any questions please feel free to contact Dr. Robert Ehlenfeldt, State of Wisconsin, Department of Agriculture at 608-224-4872.. This statement has been reviewed by a State of Wisconsin Department of Agriculture Veterinarian for content and accuracy. Submitted on behalf of Scott and Shelly Kelnhofer & Nanning 374 LLC.
