Re: [RC] [RC] The same could be said of Tevis (was: suicide race) - Karen SullivanHi Kat and all......on the other hand......in theory here.....to NOT speak out about blatant abuse or inhumane treatment becuase one is concerned repercussions may slop over into their own backyard or arena becomes self-serving and cowdardly. There will aways be the lunatic-fringe folks who want to turn all the kitties, doggies and horsies free....but that is no excuse for not demanding reasonable criteria for any equestrian sport; and requiring veterinary supervision and humane treatment....I admire those who do have the courage to try to make changes for those (children and animals), who do not have a voice.

If one substitutes the words Tevis Cup for Suicide Race in the statement made by HSUS, much of what it says is also true...except, of course, that Tevis runs all its "heats" in the same day. kat Orange County, Calif. :) =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
