Dear Steven,
Thank you for your thoughtful reply. You have also put together some good alternatives, many of which are being tried with differing degrees of success.
As for banning racing, I personally have and will continue to ride horses for sport, so I would be a hypocrite if I advocated banning racing. I know and work with some very dedicated and talented horsemen in racing on a daily basis.
As you mentioned, the answers are not simple. But the point of my post is - simply stated, the slaughter industry and the legislators are not to blame, the horse community has created this problem and it's time to step up with personal responsibility not only to curtail breeding, but to actively discourage and speak out about overbreeding within our own social, showing and riding groups.
All of the horses at Square Peg ranch had uncertain futures. Several of them were snatched from the slaughter truck. Every day, we reach out to our local community, particularly through the children and change perceptions about the value of life. That is our motive and this is our ethos.
Together we strive to make a better world.
Best,
