It is difficult for most of us to swallow that not all horses have lives as cushioned and happy as our own well-loved companions. Unfortunately, not all animals, horses or otherwise, are lucky enough to find pampered, caring homes.
Regardless of your stance on horse slaughter - whether Canada ought to be shipping horse meat or live horses overseas for consumption - I think, as horse lovers, we can all agree that horses deserve humane treatment right until the end.
The above site offers its readers information on horse slaughter in Canada and in other nations. It also gives its readers ideas of how they can get involved in the cause and provides educational information and history on the horse as well.
While there is always a possibility of being faced with the decision of what to do with a horse you can no longer care for, there are more humane options than others. Give your horse a second chance. Don't send him to market.
