Horses are very near and dear to my heart. Next they will be saying "Well why not slaughter dogs and cats for consumption too!" What is this world coming too! Breeders really need to slow down on their breeding programs. Don't they realize how many horses go to slaughter as it is? Don't they care about the horses they bring into this world and where they go? I think breeders need to be more picky. I mean the inbreeding that is going in the horse industry is becoming ridiculious. Then there are the PMU farms that are killing foals left and right because Dr.'s won't inform women that there are other alternatives besides Premarin. This country is in serious need of an aniema! Maybe the government should really start listening to "its people"! And maybe if people would stop raising the prices on everything then maybe our economy would be a lot better. I mean look how well our $1 stores are doing. We have a store here in St. Johnsbury called Yankee Dollar and I love it. Why can't people be more generous? I wish there was more that I could do.
