          Hi Rae, I put a big fan in Brazz's stall, & lock him up at night. This really helps with the bugs. Even in Florida
    the land of year round bugs.

    My vet just told me that the recommendation is now for a 3rd booster - 4 to 6 months after the second.  There's a horse down the road that has just been diagnosed. :o(  I have 11 horses.  This vaccine is practically beggaring me!  My pens are sand lots and I have goldfish in the troughs and have never seen a mosquito near the pens (far back in the yard where it's wooded, yes, but not the pens).  I'm thinking I may just do my working horses for the 3rd booster as they are the ones that consistently travel to places where there are lots of mosquitos.

    Stupid question.  Is this a vaccine the vet HAS to give?  Like Rabies?  Or can we but it through the vet supply and administer ourselves?

    I don't want to scare anyone with this, but my Vet came out today, for shots, Coggins and a Health Certificate to get me up to Georgia next month (yea, watch out Peach State, I'm coming) and she talked me into getting the West Nile vaccine.  Now, this woman doesn't try to persuade me to do much, she knows I'm kind of cheap and not the first one to jump in line with a new vaccine.  She didn't push it much last year.  But, she's pushing it now.
