ALL MARES SHIPPING TO BONITA FARM TO BOARD OR TO BE BRED ARE REQUIRED TO HAVE BEEN VACCINATED FOR RHINOPNEUMONITIS BETWEEN 7 AND 90 DAYS PRIOR TO ARRIVAL.
Barren Mares to be bred for the first time are required to have a negative uterine culture dated within 45 days prior to being covered.
In addition to Rhinopneumonitis, Bonita Farm recommends that prior to boarding with us Mares are up to date on vaccination for the following diseases: Influenza, Tetanus, Encephalomyelitis, Rabies, Botulism, Strangles, West Nile Virus, and Potomac Horse Fever.
