With prices/sales of horses at an all-time low, you'd not think this would be a problem or even worth for low auction value, but evidently it is. ... There's a...
Isn't that amazing? And here where I live, near Portland, Oregon, horses are selling for as little as $5 at the local monthly horse sale - that is, when they...
I agree. As I said another time, we are offered *free* Arabian horses on a monthly basis--and we just can't take any more mouths to feed. I personally consider...
And without a doubt, closing the horsemeat packing plants in the U.S. Just because our culture doesn't choose to eat horsemeat, doesn't mean others don't or...
I agree, and H$U$ was one of the main organizations behind closing horsemeat packing plants (with the horses as pets and noble helpers to settle the west...
Really well broke horses and especially ponies are still commanding good prices. I just sold a small pony for nearly $1000.00 at auction. There are a lot of...
You'll be glad to know that several states have passed or are in the process of passing new laws to allow horse slaughter. Montana in particular added laws...
If only H$U$ knew that most of those covered wagons settling the west were pulled by oxen and not horses, they would be busy putting McDonalds out of business...
H$U$ doesn't care--it'd just use something else. They are "opportunists" who prey on guilt, fear, and gullibility to enrich their coffers at the expense of...
Unfortunately you are probably right there. At least when Montana legalized and authorized horse slaughter they wrote the law in such a way that it will cost...
My veterinarian just left here - we had a discussion on the slaughter issue. When I brought it up, I didn't know what her response would be (since she is...
Unfortunately, these horses that are going to be sent to slaughter are treated much worse than any of you have any idea of. The theft of horses is not the...
"Overpopulation"--there's that word again--one that was COINED AND PROMOTED by the "propaganda mill" BIG LIES of the animal rights INDUSTRY. Please do not help...
Well said Marcy. I think we should have the option of slaughter. Veronica  ________________________________ From: M Covault <birdcompanions@...> ...
Yes overbreeding is part of the problem, but only part. I dont care how well a breeding is planned, the best bloodlines in the world will still throw out duds...
Well said. I think those horsemen who are supporting AR folks are doing so to eliminate the smaller breeders and therefore the competition. They would like...

Hi, just mailed more to you. gail ________________________________ From: "ArabianPonyRegistryofAmerica@yahoogroups.com"...
... Actually, I would place that down the priority/motivation list a bit, though it is one factor. That said, I cringed when I read that the Parellis were...
I think Parellis will go whereever the $buck$s take them. Perhaps their popularity is falling and they need to do something to re-invigorate it again. This...
I wondered if that was a prime motivator. And the H$U$ will make money off the program too--you can count on it. They don't do anything if the ROI isn't good...
The animal rights people do not have any sort of logic on their side whatsoever. I hate those celebrity commercials that come on, showing sad eyed pups and...
Maybe they are as out of touch with reality as the AR folks are, or maybe they are courting the celebrity clientelle who have deeper pockets for their services...
Well let's face it, with the economy being a bit slow, and their 'toys' being a bit on the pricey side, I'm sure sales and clinic bookings/attendance are way...
