Vaccinations

Vaccination is a crucial part of wellness for our equine partners. Vaccines are meant to reduce the risk of illness and decrease infectious disease spread. It is important to work with your veterinarian to develop a vaccine protocol that will work best for your horse and their needs.

Vaccines can be divided into 2 main categories: core vaccines and risk-based vaccines. Keeping up with regular vaccinations will keep your horse as protected as they can be.

Core-based vaccines should be boostered annually. Risk-based vaccines may be boostered up to every 6 months, depending on the risk factors individual to your horse. Your veterinarian will help develop a vaccine protocol based on your horse’s individual needs and their environment.

***Please note, horses that have an unknown vaccine history or have not been vaccinated, pregnant mares, and foals will all require different vaccination schedules than a previously vaccinated adult horse. Consult your veterinarian for what vaccine schedule is appropriate for your horse***
