Equine Vaccinations in Aurora, TX
Horses are exposed to a wide range of infectious diseases, many of which can be life-threatening and spread rapidly.
Protecting Horses Through Preventive Care
At Trinity Veterinary Medical Center, we believe preventive care is the foundation of good health. That’s why we create individualized equine vaccination programs tailored to your horse’s age, lifestyle, and risk factors.
Core Equine Vaccines
The American Association of Equine Practitioners (AAEP) recommends all horses receive these core vaccines:
Rabies

Tetanus
Caused by a toxin-producing bacterium found in soil.
West Nile Virus
A mosquito-borne illness that can cause neurological disease.
Eastern & Western Equine Encephalomyelitis
Deadly mosquito-borne viruses affecting the brain.
Every horse, regardless of age or activity, should be protected against these diseases.

Why Equine Vaccination Matters
Diseases like West Nile Virus or Strangles can spread quickly through barns, showgrounds, and pastures. Vaccinating not only protects your horse but also contributes to herd immunity, reducing outbreaks in the community. Preventive vaccination is more affordable and less stressful than treating a sick horse.
