This is the story of just ONE horse saved from slaughter. Horse #911. She was found in a “kill pen” . Slaughter is NOT the answer! Please concider a rescue horse, or donate to one of your local rescue horse places…they are always in need of donations for the “bail” , trailering costs, quarentine, vet bills, farrier bills… and “groceries”. One person CAN make a difference! This mare is sooooo sweet, I can’t believe someone “threw her away” , her life was doomed… headed for slaughter, THEN only hours before her “one way ticket”, she was saved! She is safe and getting vet care now. “Please don’t cry for the horses… love the ones that are here” … Thank you for watching… Horse #911 has a name … her new name is now “Curly” … enjoy. (You can follow Curly’s progress on www.WeLoveCurly.com. )

Whistle the Mini – We found him 4 years ago at the local horse auction, bought him, used him in my summer camp for 2 summers and then he went to be a pet with his owner. We also showed him in a hunter schooling show against the horses and got like 4th place… He had 3 correct gaits, is sound and has never foundered.

Horse Haven of Tennessee was founded in 1999 as a network of individuals that would open their facilities to house horses that the local Humane Societies and law enforcement had no place to put. Having a place to house horses, at no expense to the local counties, made local officials more willing to take complaints on equines more serious, and make an effort to do something about it. Over the years HHT realized the need for a facility to house the animals that come into our care in a more public type environment. Fosters are great for emergency and short term housing situations but we have found that until the judicial forces expedite the hearing of cases in their courts long term fostering does not work very well. This would also allow volunteers easy access to help with hands-on rehabilitation and evaluation of both the horse and potential adopter. 1999 – 2006 During the first six years of operation HHT used 47 acres of “free lease” land in South Knox County. Because this property had not been used in many years most of this acreage was overgrown with cedar trees, raspberry bushes and thick brush. Over many years this property was made usable after clearing in stages. Fencing and corrals were set up to best serve the animals we housed. Things we’ve learned along the way: We have learned that buying thin horses at the local auction houses does nothing but encourage the local trader to find more to bring to the sale. Instead we strive to get enforcement of the current …

Question by Angel: Who really thinks they know what goes on at horse auctions?
Last week I answered a question about horses being slaughtered and their meat being passed off as beef in the U.S. People are so misinformed! I have had horses my entire life (almost 25yrs) and have been going to horse auctions since before I could walk as well. I know first hand what goes on there and yes, horses go to slaughter everyday most likely in every state across the U.S. But what people are mis judging is that the large majority that go there need to! I myself own 22 horses currently and of those 22, 4 of them came out of the loose pen of 3 different sale barns. One was dropped off by an elderly man who could no longer afford to keep the 3yr old gelding but I spoke with him and found out the horse was broke to ride and a calm horse. I took the chance of trusting him and he is now the best horse on the farm. Many of my young family members ride him by themselves! One of the others is a mare that belonged to the wife of an auction barn owner. The horse attacked her and put her
into the hospital for many weeks. This horse should have been slaughtered but I decided to buy her for a brood mare as she had nice form and blood lines. She have given us many nice tempered colts that have become loving pets. Some of the others were just cheap and young enough to take a gamble at feeding up and breaking them to ride.
There are very few “good” horses that go to slaughter houses and I know this because I know a couple of kill buyers myself. If need be I would call one up if I had a terribly aggressive or unsafe horse that needed to be rid of. Maybe some of you think that’s wrong but don’t judge until you have delt with it first hand. Trust me that I’m not a heartless person, this past fall our beloveded stud passed away from west nile virus and I had all I could do not to cry for days… I miss him much.

There are bad doings as well but they are quite limited to specified people or rare occurances.

My partner is an artist who specialises in painting horses;and he and his brother Adrian who does the same frequently donate work for auction for Charities etc. Here the auction was for the Pentyrch who staged the race day at Bonvilston near Cardiff . All the work that goes into staging a point to point is voluntary and is done by the Hunt. They and the farmer also do all the Conservation work on the land and hedgerows which keeps the racecourse a sanctuary for wildlife throughout the year. People come together to stage the events which have trades stands and catering and bars; and it takes a phenomenal amount of work to keep the course watered in hot weather;maiantain the fences and rails and paddock erect marquees etc. So get involved if you can and perhaps help out as a sponsor at your local point to point! Here is the end of the auction; which was fiercely contested by two of the owners of the horses in last year’s race plus some collectors of David’s Art; and my job was to hold it aloft while people bid! The bidding started at £75 so I was there rather a long time as it went for £575 in the end! I couldn’t believe the excitement this generated – there must have been a thousand people around the Winner’s Enclosure to watch! Auctioneer was Richard Harris and the winning bidder was David Underwood owner of Esters Boy.
