When you give a vaccine and your horse gets a giant lump on its neck that goes into their shoulder to the point of making them lame, horse has never been lame before and nothing is wrong with her feet.
Would you give the vaccine again the next year? Vet was out this past Wednesday and I like to give all of mine Rabies vaccines as we are surrounded by woods and all kinds of critters visit us. Yesterday her neck was so swollen and painful that she'd just stand around and barely walked around to graze. I cold hosed her for a while and rubbed on it and she seemed to like that. I am going to hot pack her in just a little bit but questioning whether she should get the shot again. I gave her myself the EWT and Rhino/Flu and didn't have any reaction at all. Vet used the smaller needle not the huge ones and she didn't tense up.
