I would have thought these would be a Google search away... but no! Anyone have a source for a therapy horse vest (especially therapy horse in training)? Or is this something I will have to have made special?

Ugh. Be careful when attending events... http://www.examiner.com/article/ehv-1-outbreak-cancels-many-midwest-horse-events http://www.thehorse.com/articles/33646/ehv-1-confirmed-in-larimer-co-colo-horse
