Dr. O - I have a horse that 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 totally different horse. I was not present when the Vet attended the horse, or I would have stopped the 3rd vaccination. Can you tell me why a Vet would administer all these vaccines in such a short period other than for profit? The horse did not show adverse reaction, but we still question ill consequences. Thank you.
