AB sells foals for slaughter?Or do they sell foals who don't measure up and some foals somewhere from someone end up slaughtered?

http://www.haloshavenrescue.org/?page_id=4
Building their Clydesdale brand, back in the 90s they upped demand for clydes that meet their specs (geldings 18 hds, bay with blaze and 4 high whites, etc.) to serve at their various Busch gardens for the public to meet.

They were bought out by IBEV in 2009, which closed a number of Busch gardens and cut back on the numbers of horses. Breeders were stuck with the surplus and they ended up at auction. This rescue picked up a pregnant mare at one of the auctions and was able to trace her history to one of their suppliers, who owned the mare and co-owns the foal's sire with Anheuser-Busch.

So they aren't directly shipping them to the auctions. Their suppliers were a couple years back.

I know some of the people who take care of those horses...I wish our human poor were as well taken care of

We all misread or make mistakes.All good my friend

If I was an animal I would want to be a bud Klydesdale.They arent treated well ...they are spoiled beyond belief.If any trainer/handler ever was caught even talking mean to one of those horses they would be gone on the spot

A mistake which I acknowledged and apologized for, providing a link to the original source which corrected my mistake (which came through another source).

At 6:53 I am forgiven, and 19 minutes later I receive this pm:

"backwoodsbob

good job

you did an excellent job hijacking/derailing my bud horse thread.Guess you must be proud even though you told complete shit you pulled out of your ass"


I have read about your past, from your own posts, to know you have no forgiveness of other's mistakes, shoot transgressors from the hip, so to speak, and are proud to do so. Enough. Welcome to ignore.
