The Arabian Horse Association Mission Supporters (AHAMS) needs AHA members to contact their club delegates in efforts to support a resolution to rescind last year’s motion by the AHA endorsing the reopening of United States slaughter facilities. The resolution will be presented next month at AHA’s convention in Orlando, FL (November 17-21.)
“The endorsement of equine slaughter says that we have little regard for the animals that we chose to bring into this world, and for the ancient breed that we treasure.
Send the positive message that our horses have individual worth and value. Send the positive message that this Association exists to find innovative ways to encourage responsible breeding where every foal is valued, and to lead the way in the industry by continuing to provide programs and services that promote and encourage ownership and the long-term enjoyment of our horses.” – AHAMS
The Fawor Foundation has been a second chance (and in many cases, a last chance) for discarded Arabians; from the track, show ring, or loving home due to the poor economy. The Fawor Foundation gives these horses time to recover mentally, veterinary care to mend their broken down bodies, and a second chance at life, and sometimes just a comfy retirement.
Resolute Bey, ‘Rezzy’ with a bump on his fetlock, severly matted mane and tail, and a weary look in his sensitive eyes would have been passed over by many possible homes, not at the Fawor Foundation. We have given Rez a chance, a chance that comes along few and far between for ex-race horses with old injuries.
Please think of the Fawor Foundation for your next competition or pleasure horse. The Fawor Foundation has many sound, beautiful, well trained Arabians that just need someone special to take a chance on them.
