<< Do most of you have your horses vaccinated against rabies?  No one around 
 here does, since we haven't had any rabies reported in the area for 20 
 years or more, but I wondered whether I should have Lakota vaccinated 
 since we plan (hope!) to travel to endurance rides this year.  He gets 
 rhino-flu and EWT already.  Are there any other vaccines that the 
 travelling horse should absolutely have? >>
Dear Glenda, I wouldn't get my horse vaccinated against anything I didn't
feel was a serious threat--actually, the ONLY thing I currently vaccinate my
horses for is tetanus.  There was a big discussion (which I instigated) on
the pro's and cons of vaccinations on ridecamp awhile back--april or may I
think.  You might want to check the archives.  If you can't access them let
me know and I'll see if I can print the stuff out (I saved a lot of in, as
vaccinations/holistic health are a big subject with me, also, have a possible
article about the "other side" of the vaccination question in the works--)
