I am in the process of ordering my spring shots and found a 6 in one shot that covers all the vaccinations I need except Rabies which I think my vet has to give in NJ.

The only problem is I can't seem to find any shots that do not have tetanus included.

My colt got a tetanus shot when he was gelded 2 months ago. I am wondering if it is ok to give it to him again with the 6 in one shot. My mare needs everything, so the 6 in one is ok for her.

So, Dr. O is it ok to revaccinate with the tetanus.

No one can say if this will be Ok but I think there is minimal chance of increase reaction rate after 2 months.
