Equine Guelph has vaccination planner
Disease is always a concern for a horse owner and spring is reminder to check horse vaccination records.
Equine Guelph’s vaccination Equi-Planner, sponsored by Merck Animal Health, is a useful tool for horse owners to generate personalized immunization schedules.
With the latest identification of EHV-1 in Ontario, it is important to make sure horses are protected. The vaccination Equi-Planner is a tool customized to each horse owner’s needs. The tool will tailor a schedule that reflects owners’ situations and provides a starting point for a veterinarian.
Horse owners are asked to complete six questions that help determine individual farm differences and risk factors, including: age, use, sex, exposure to outside horses and geography. That data is then compiled and a printable customized vaccination schedule is provided for each horse.
Owners are encouraged to review this with their veterinarian
