I have just been flicking through my horses passport and have noticed his vaccination ages seem a bit odd (I have only had him a few months) so if anyone can help me make sense of them it would be dry much appreciated!

On 28.7.10 he had flu and tetanus
On 14.9.10 he had flu and tetanus
On 13.4.11 he had just flu

I am fairly sure he now needs to start again, but I keep getting mixed p with normal and FEI rules! We are not out competing or anything like that. Also unsure as to why he had two flu and tetanus in about 6 weeks or am I being a bit thick? Label from first two injections say proteqflu+te and the third says Proteqflu. Was told when I bought him he was up to date and misread the date of the final one, lesson learned!

You're OK I think :) As far as I'm aware, the current recommendation is:

1st jab - flu + tet

Gap of 21-92 days

2nd jab - flu + tet

Gap of 150-215 days

3rd jab - flu only

The annual booster must be done no later the same date as the year before. FEI rules require a flu jab every 6 months + 21 days.
