I believe its your choice, but I myself do vaccinate. I have seen horses have to be put down for rabies. seen the sleeping sickness and tetnus. All this growing up and in our big horses.
I also vaccinate my mares with rhino, and shots 1 month before due dates. Having seen my QH abort at 278 days, I believe in the precaution. She did not have the rhino shots.
I do have a mare that gets sore after shots. I now give in buttock area, and treat it with dmso.
I wish I did not have to put her thru the soreness, but call me selfish I want her around for a long time.Good Lord willing
