For any penny pinching horse owners like me, encephalitis (this is
probably not spelled right) vaccines can be purchased over the counter
and administered by yourselves for a fraction of the cost of having
your vet do it. I buy mine from Jeffers (1-800-Jeffers or
jeffersequine.com )
West Nile vaccine is not available over the counter yet, that one you
will have to have your vet do.
