Ron had his jabs today and I'd like to long-rein him tomorrow but don't know whether that's too soon? I'm assuming no adverse reaction. Long-reining would be fairly gentle - 20 mins walk and prob 6 mins trot.

How long do you give your horses off after their jabs?

I'll be gentle with him!
 
I was always told that they could be a little stiff in the jab site, so although ok to excercise, not too much heavy schooling for a couple of days and to avoid heavy sweating.
Gentle hacking should be ok though...
 
Vet's response to this question when I asked it was there was no need to curtail work at all unless there was a reaction. He'd "jabbed" horses at hunt meets with no ill effects...
