Hello,

I just started my 3 month foal on her vaccination series. She had her first annual series (Tet, E and W E.). I have read it is important to give them a booster of the same vaccine four to six weeks after the first vaccination. Is it harmful to give a third booster four to six weeks past the second booster? I have "heard" that in a foal it may be beneficial to give a third booster.

I know of no research to indicate or not indicate a third booster should be given at this age.
