Rabies Vaccination in Pregnant Mares

Q: Can you address off-label use of the rabies vaccine in late-term broodmares? My therio vet won’t give it because it’s off-label usage. So I arrange for another vet in her practice to vaccinate my late-term mares. I cannot imagine my foals not having that protection from his or her first moments.
A: Rabies vaccination can be administered in the last trimester of pregnancy prior to delivery
