Love the photo of your horse, it is so good!
Our vet is due this June, and I was going to ask him the same question you have just asked. Someone has told me that having them vaccinated doesnt mean they wont get it as there are different strains. Not sure on that one, so I'll leave it to the vet when he does everything else, to let me know.
Our farrier/trainer has retired from the business, so we are looking for another farrier. Sigh.
The kids are going back to school tommorow, they got deaconjim some t-shirts for his birthday, which he has already has been given.
I'm in a "don't feel like doing anything" mood today. : )
Horse people spend their whole lives looking for a good farrier ;~D
SO many farriers are just guys that really didn't work well in jobs that had to deal with people, so they went into horse shoeing.;~D
I'm lucky, I like mine, and he's as stable as they come.
