Thank you! Horses are so expressive and are ready to talk to all who listen. I agree with you the racing industry is appalling. Of course there are those that look after their horses. The terrible mental, emotional and physical scars they bare is a great sadness to me. I see many shut down horses (who are athletes). Yes they are considered tools whose purpose is to give pleasure and profit even if it means sacrificing themselves.

Saskie is my Soul Horse. Yes she is truly such a gorgrous being inside and out.

I am still completing my PhD. At the California Institute for Human Science. I am developing a technique and questionnaire to determine PTSD in equines and will extend to other animals. Indeed, in the horse world old beliefs die hard so I want to use this to change how horses are viewed.
