We are so very pleased to announce One Horse At a Time has been accepted for membership in The Homes for Horses Coalition. I recieved notification from Liz Ross, Federal Policy Advisor of the Animal Welfare Institute, just this afternoon. This is a wonderful group that we hope to work with and through.
http://www.homesforhorses.org/These are a few a the basic beliefs held by this organization of professionals, and mesh well with our own.
-Every horse has intrinsic value and deserves humane treatment at all stages in life.
-The horse industry, including the equine veterinary medical profession, has an obligation to promote responsible horse breeding, ownership and care.
-Horse owners have a responsibility to provide high-quality, long-term care for their horses.
-All horses deserve a humane end to life and that horse slaughter is neither humane nor acceptable.
