I agree there animal abuse laws that need to be used in these circumstances. These people are not just about money they don't care about the cruelty to they have to perpetrate to these animals to get notoriety or money. It is sickening it is beyond belief that people are still doing this crap to them. My condolences to the horses that they trash sons of Bs

I noted during the biglick arena that the riders do not look natural either. They appear to be sliding off the back end of the horse. This does not look like a comfortable ride to me. The whole concept of biglick is senseless to say the least. Why not wear their fancy riding clothes and saddles and gear and showoff their beautifully groomed and trained horses in their natural gait?

No you are very right. They always did when i was a kid, but looking at them as an adult it does not today it''s a very rough ride. Very, very sad. Hard to watch actually I,d equivocate it to making a woman wear high heals with open blisters or cracked feet. Make a man do this(i mean wear high heals (very high heals with a chain on his foot a sore under it, and I bet this practice would quickly be abolished.

To be perfectly honest, I have no idea how this torture even got started. There is absolutely nothing awe inspiring, heart stopping beauty in this picture that should be a work of art!!! The Walker with a natural gate IS awe inspiring, heart stopping beauty work of art to see!!! Something you could stand and watch for hours and still not get enough of. It is a disgrace and blatant disrespect of their breed to be seen like this!! Wobbling about like they had one to many at the barn before coming in the ring! Walkers don't wobble, that was why they were in such demand and after having ridden one myself for two hours, I understand this. As I was told, it will be like sitting in your favorite armchair. That was NOT a lie, I did not have a bruised behind the next day as did the others riding different breeds.

She has a fabulous job and love of life! Also, a shout out to your tech team! How wonderful to share with another rescue group! Donations are wonderful but if they expire they are useless, so sharing is the best caring! Thanks Corey for a slice of training. Your understanding and wisdom is beyond your years! True giftedness! Also, thanks for your voice against 'big lick' and HP's calling out the abuse! Unfortunately those Big Lick participants/owners/breeders have invested a lot of money in an abusive form of horse 'slavery'. Keep up the pressure HP and focus on the next generation to change their mind set through education! Your weekly post HP is the highlight of my week! Keep up the great work as you change the horse world!

This is so sad!! These horses have a gorgeous gait! I personally don't see how it looks good! It's so sad...

I wish everyone who was against this could show up and protest this. It would be hard for anyone to even get to the show and maybe they would just give up. We can hope. It is horrific that Tennessee still allows such blatant animal abuse with the Big Lick. Promote flat shod horse shows. They are such beautiful horses how they are.

So it’s possible that the disease had started after the vaccination: of course I have no idea, but it’s possible. Praying it’s not strangles. No clue on prognosis after symptoms are present with an easing lymph nodes 💞 Thank you for all you do!!!

Dis-eases starting after "vaccinations" ... coincidence .... bingo!
