    This document provides vaccination schedules for horses, including foals and adult horses. It lists the recommended diseases to vaccinate against, the number of doses and time intervals between doses. It provides different schedules for foals depending on whether their dams were previously vaccinated. For adult horses, it distinguishes schedules for broodmares, previously vaccinated adult horses, and those with unknown vaccination history. Recommendations include primary vaccines against tetanus, equine influenza, herpesvirus and additional vaccines such as rabies, botulism and EVA. Revaccination intervals range from semi-annual to annual depending on the vaccine and risk factors.
