What vaccinations does my horse need before boarding?

How do I handle farrier and veterinary appointments for my boarded horse?
You'll typically schedule your own farrier and vet, though the facility staff can hold your horse during appointments if you can't be present. Some stables work with preferred providers and can help coordinate if needed.
What should I look for when touring a boarding facility in Maine?
Pay attention to the cleanliness of stalls, the condition of fencing, and the quality of hay and feed storage. It's also a good idea to watch how the staff interacts with the horses, since that tells you a lot about the daily care your horse will receive.
