"Fall Shots" for Southern Illinois?

Lady_MCSE · 09-02-2008, 09:46 AM

Having boarded my horse for 3 years in the Chicago area, I have generally been blissfully ignorant about what shots he has been getting due to the fact that the boarding barns just call out the vet to do al lhorses on the same day then send me a bill.

He has now moved to Southern Illinois, and I have with me the last bill I received which says "East \ West \ Tetanus \ West Nile."

I'm having the vet out today to look at a couple of wounds he's got, and figured I'll ask for fall shots too.

Anyone have any advice on what I should make sure he gets? Hopefully the vet knows better than I do, but still thought I'd pose the question anyway.

I think that covers what you will need. That is all we gave ours, we are in central IL.

Yeah, he said Jacques didn't really need anything but a flu\rhino booster, and gave him that.
