VACCINATION SCHEDULE
By Dr. Ken Marcella, D.V.M.

Most vaccination schedules are determined by the amount of contact exposure individual horses face. This is the amount of risk they are under because of the number and health history of horses they are likely to come into contact with regularly. More horse contact carries greater risk and requires more frequent vaccination.

The following recommendations are for horses kept in a well-managed situation with moderate to low contact risk. The recommendations for foal vaccinations also assume that the mare has had proper pre foaling vaccinations.

Recent research shows that modern vaccines produce such high levels of maternal immunity that vaccinating colts too soon does not stimulate appropriate immune reactions. The current suggestion is to vaccinate young horses at four to five months of age, with revaccination in three to four weeks, for full response. These weanlings are usually vaccinated again in the late fall (if foaled early) or in the early spring (if foaled late).

MARE VACCINATIONS
These should be given prior to breeding (usually in the spring):
  • Tetanus
  • Influenza
  • Rhinopneumonitis
  • West Nile
  • Strangles (Intranasal)
  • Rabies
  • Eastern & Western Encephalitis

These should be given after breeding:

  • Rhinopneumonitis (killed vaccine) at five, seven and nine months of gestation

Regular fall vaccinations:

  • Eastern & Western Encephalitis
  • Influenza
  • West Nile (check by a high number of local cases)
  • Tetanus (given to the mare 30 to 45 days prior to foaling date)
  FOAL VACCINATIONS
Give at four to five months of age, if the mare was correctly vaccinated and the foal received adequate COLOSTRUM. If there was no mare vaccination, the foal is given tetanus and tetanus antitoxin at birth and vaccines are given at three months of age.
  • Tetanus & Rabies
  • Influenza
  • Intranasal Pinnacle (Strangles)
  • West Nile
  • Eastern & Western Encephalitis
  • Rhinopneumonitis

Repeat in three weeks to boost initial immunity. Some owners like to split these vaccines into two sessions so the foal does not have to take so many injections at one time. This staggering may lessen adverse reactions in some horses prone to such a response.

Many drug companies offer combinations of these vaccinations. Consult your veterinarian and design the vaccination program that is right for you and your horses.

Horse health is also about regular de worming, fly control, grooming, nutrition and safety. See your Southern States dealer for your horse care needs.
