Pipeline horses…

We know that Canada has stopped accepting horses destined for slaughter. We also know there are horses stuck in the slaughter pipeline that we are very concerned about. I’d like to remind everyone that the pipeline starts all around us. It isn’t just the horses on the front lines sitting at Sugarcreek, New Holland, etc. that are going to need help that we worry about. There are feedlots and dealers all over the country that supply KB’s with horses. We are worried about these horses as well. They all will need help.

We are trying to determine how, and if, we may be able to help any of these horses. Some organizations may already be asking for funds to help horses caught in the pipeline – we suggest that everyone be careful and to make sure the organization, and their plans to help these horses, are legitimate.

None of us really know what to expect or when. But we should start identifying ways to help. I know the dealers in our area will expect money for horses they are stuck with. Funds will be needed for this and other things – hay, grain, vetting, etc.

Sincerely,
