[RC] Horse Slaughter - Ridecamp Guest

==========================================

Very well put Tiffany. Thank You. I would take out a loan if I had to so that 
my horse wouldn't be carted off with strangers and beaten to death. BECAUSE I 
AM A RESPONSIBLE PET OWNER. For the record I am a vegetarian. I do not believe 
in killing cows either for those of you that brought it up. The ignorance is 
killing me here. Most of you are just mean and have the need to make things so 
personal. It isn't ridecamp that I dislike it is most of the people on it that 
disgust me. It is not your opinions it is the way you attack that is horrible. 
I feel I don't need to post or read anymore on this site...I am going to go 
where people are friendlier.



"let me get this straight, a woman who has a 30 year old horse that
served her family well, probably rode the kids around, and now
instead of paying for euthanasia, will run her through to auction to
save a few pennies. When I was working with the AHRN we'd see 35 year
old ponies who served their families faithfully, only to be dumped in
the feedlot with a horrific trip to texas ahead of them. That's 
really sad, for me if I'm going to own animals I take care of them
until they die. It's one thing to euthanize a horse and another thing
to send them into that hell for a few bucks.
Who is that woman sparing the euthanasia on, her or the horse?I have
personally picked my horses out of Leonard's feed lot. Did your 
friend tell you that this mare was likely held in this way before
slaughter? Lemme give you a taste. Over 200 horses shoved in a small
pen rampant with strangles and every other equine diesease, they get
the crap beat out of them over food, and by the time they ship they
are so sick with strangles they can hardly stand, packed into a 
crowded truck trying to no go down under the rush. There are heat,
flies, bullies, diseases, etc.
To me this is not the time to save a buck. I'm honored by the service
and friendship given to me freely by my horses, the least I can do is
see they leave this planet with dignity instead of throwing them away
for a few dollars"
