mare in foal

[Endure4fun@aol.com]

Come on people!!!  Yes, mares have to run when in foal in the wild. They have 
to if they want to survive.  That is what God intended.  So do the babies, 
does that mean we should take them and make them do endurance rides just 
because they know how to run!!!    He did not take that mare and make it do 
an endurance ride.  That is our choice.  If you want to breed your mare, be a 
considerate owner and let her have the time off, or get another horse to 
ride.  Don't be so selfish!  Our horses DO NOT ask us to be bred, raced and 
do the things that we the human race ask them to do. They trust us to 
hopefully know what is best for them.  And take care of them, not abuse them 
to our own selfish means.
