Gotta bring the animal to the clinic and let them do it.pdfangus":28bafg32 said:FOR RABIES YOU CAN STILL GET THE VACCINE AND GET THE PROTECTION......
i JUST DID MY HORSES LAST WEEK.
HOWEVER NO ONE WILL RECOGNIZE THE VACINATION STATUS IF YOU DO IT YOUR SELF. VET HOUSES LIKE JEFFERS CAN NOT SHIP IT TO QUITE A FEW STATES BECAUSE OF STATE LAWS.
i AM NOT INTERESTED IN THE STATUS RECOGNITION. i AM INTERESTED IN THE PROTECTION AND SAVING MONEY.
i DID ALL SPRING SHOTS FOR TWO HORSES AND TWO DONKEYS FOR ABOUT A HUNDRED BUCKS. HAD THE VET DO IT LAST YEAR AND SPENT 400.00.
even preg checked the cows....and managed to determine they were pregnant without an ultrasound machine. pretty sure they are all AI bred and will know for sure by calving time.....not going to abort them in any case.

Do you realize how much money you saved and how many "middle men" you cut out of the equation?? Can't believe you don't even have an ultrasound machine. :lol: :lol2:

I always record all vaccinations and wormings given all livestock including
date...
product name
manufacturer
serial or lot number
expiration date
method and site of administration
purpose of the treatment
and who gave treatment
takes longer to key it all to the spreadsheet than it does to do it.
I can print it out for any and all animals.....
but vets assume that if they did not do it then it was not done.
