Note 901.0               Interstate health requirements                2 replies

       I am located in Sudbury, MA, and for savings in $$$, I would
       like to mail order the vaccinations for this spring.
       I have a few questions prior to ordering that, depending on
       peoples comments, may cancel my plans.
       First let me mention what vaccines I am interested in.
     
        Definates;
       1)Rabies (required?)
       2) Tetanus/Enceph. combo.
       3) PHF
       
        Options;
       1) Strangles
       2) Rhino.
       3) Influenza
       
       Questions;
       What are the risks involved in mail order? My horse has not had
       any reactions to any of the above shots when injected by a vet,
       so this may or maynot be a concern. My concern would be freshness
       or quality of.
    
       What are interstate requirements as far as vaccinations between
       MA, NH & VT? I will mostlikely be taking trips to NH & VT. 
       Coggins I'm set on. It's proving (if required) what shots he's
       had if at all.
    
       Any info. would be helpfull...or is there an organization in
       the state of concern, that could answer these questions? 
    
       Thanx, Dave'

                        -< add rhino/flu and strangles >-
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    
    
    I would include strangles and the flu/rhino in the have to have list
    of shots. A horse that comes down wither either is out for the show
    season.  My vet reccommends that the rhino/flu shot be given every
    4-6 weeks to horses that are actively on the show circuit.  The
    immunization coverage of the current vaccines is short and needs
    to be boosted to prevent infection.

                                 -< Shots... >-
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    We have ordered shots before and had no problems...the company I
    deal with gets them to me in a couple of days.
    We too give rhino and flu as frequently as needed for the show
    season...about every 6 to 8 weeks.  We don't give rabies.
    
    As far as the freshness goes, one can only go by the dates on the
    shots.
    As far as giving them goes...have you done this before?  If not
    I would suggest that someone show you the proper way as well as
    locations as they are usually not all given in the same location,
    etc.
    
    The company we deal with is Foster and Smith...they can be reached
    through 800-826-7206
