One Vaccination You Shouldn't Skip this Spring
The birds are singing, the pastures are turning green and your horses’ coats are shedding out. You know what that means, right? Spring is coming... and so are spring shots.
Many horse owners are looking for places to cut back this year, but your horse’s West Nile Virus vaccination shouldn’t be one of them. Here’s why: Every year some region of the country experiences an outbreak of West Nile Virus. Last year it was Washington; this year it could be your state. And, of course, vaccinating for West Nile is far less expensive than treating a sick horse with neurological symptoms.
So which vaccine gives you the most bang for your buck? PreveNile® West Nile Virus vaccine made by Intervet/Schering-Plough Animal Health. While other vaccines require a two-shot series the first time, PreveNile provides a full year of West Nile protection for horses 12 months and older with just one shot. That’s one shot whether your horse was vaccinated before or not. Easy, right? Here are some other benefits:
- Less stress on your horse because he only receives one shot instead of two.
- Only one farm call instead of two, saving you money.
- High degree of safety with very low reaction rates (99.9% reaction-free).
Now’s the time to call your veterinarian and schedule spring vaccinations. And when you do, make sure to ask for PreveNile, the superior single-shot solution for West Nile Virus. You can learn more at www.prevenile.com.
