Since 4/06 I've facilitated the rescue of nearly 600 equines from the slaughter pipeline. They included pregnant mares, orphan foals, weanlings/yearlings, young untrained horses, riding horses, ranch horses, race horses, draft horses, ponies, mules, donkeys.

Myself and many others are working to bring an end to horse slaughter.  Until that happens, I will continue to save as many as I can from the slaughter pipeline.

Please ask your Representatives in Congress to support HR 503, The Prevention of Equine Cruelty Act and HR 305, The Horse Transportation Safety Act of 2009. You can reach them through the Capitol Switchboard at 202-224-3121. Thank you!


If you have a strong stomach, please watch this video www.kaufmanzoning.net/apologize.wmv  The photos were taken by the USDA, and represent the condition of horses upon arrival at a slaughter house.
