We have received many concerned phone calls about the recent EHV outbreak in Texas/Oklahoma/Louisiana.
Dr Foristall is highly recommending Flu/Rhino boosters this fall/winter. Boosters will provide protection against equine influenza virus (EIV) and the respiratory forms of equine herpesvirus (EHV 1/4). Zoetis, our vaccine maker, and the AAEP, both recommend boostering at 6 months if you are higher risk - so if you are at a boarding facility, or attending shows/clinics, or using a commercial shipper, or at a farm that takes in training horses regularly, or at a farm that brings in new horses and sells horses regularly, then boosters are highly recommended. Here is a link to a detailed article about EHV: https://aaep.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/EHV_FAQ_for_Owners_Final.pdf If you or your farm wants to book a vaccine appointment or if you have any questions feel free to reach out via phone or text or email!

Professional veterinary care tools also support grooming and preventive care. Clippers, nail trimmers, and examination tools help maintain animal health. Regular maintenance and care prevent many health issues. High-quality tools make these tasks easier and more effective. Preventive care is a key part of veterinary services.
