Dr. O - I have a horse our Vet vaccinated three times for Rhino, Rabies, Equine/Bovine/Caprine, E,W Encephalomyelitis, Flu, and Tetanus within a period of 4 months. The horse was vaccinated at 2yo, then again a month later in combination with a small injury the Vet attended, then again 2 mos later when the Vet was called for a different horse. I was not present when the Vet attended the horse, or I would have stopped the 2nd vaccination. Can you tell me why a Vet would administer all these vaccines to an up-to-date, healthy horse in such a short period of time? The horse did not show adverse reaction, but we still question ill consequences. Thank you. |

If the horse had already received his primary series and then was kept current, I have no explanation for what you describe.
