Why I Don't Use Horse Leather

[cmantz]

Well said Ken! I am the one that turned this into a "debate" on slaughter...sorry about that. I guess I misunderstood the point of the original post.

Isn't it interesting that the people that claim the people that are against slaughter are the ones that are proclaimed "horse lovers" and probably have never owned a horse (Cheryl...this is not to be directed at you in any way If they only knew what these animals must face now being sent to Mexico or Canada. It is sad. I have a horse now that we are trying to sell. Bought her as a barrel prospect and she is probably going to require more maintenance in terms of injections and such than what she is worth and probably wouldn't hold up to the amount of riding my daughter does. But I can't take her to a sale barn as she won't bring ANYTHING and she probably would end up on a trailer to Mexico. So, in the pasture she stands until I can find that right buyer that just wants a decent horse to either do fun shows or trail ride. She will make someone a great companion as she is such a sweet mare...unless you are another horse messing with her at feeding time LOL
