The name is Dan. I believe all my facts are correct and based on actual lifetime experience. I have paid to have my own horses euthanized when necessary and would never send one to auction. I have seen perfectly healthy registered quarter horses being bought by the slaughter haulers because no one wanted them. What are we to do with the abandoned horses? Will you pay for their lifetime upkeep or humane disposal? Do you donate money every year to your local horse rescue? I have seen horses that were brought in nothing more than skin and bones. They don't all make it. There will always be some neglect but the ban has greatly increased the amount of suffering. Any fool who spends time in the horse world knows this. I'm feeding 6 horses now that are retired like me. All born right here on the farm. Some will probably outlive me. Have a nice day.
