Pro's & Con's of Horse Slaughter

Kathleen Johnson sent a message to the members of The Mitchell Centre for Equine Rescue (Vulcan, AB) - Horse Rescue.

--------------------
Subject: Global Series on Horse Slaughter... airing 3 nights starting Monday!

Hello all - Happy Summer!

Well, as you know, the formal charity is closed, but Paul's involvement in the rescue of horses and in the plight of the horse industry is still very much active. Paul mentioned that he had been approached by the media again.

Please watch for this TV series on Global News starting tomorrow. The reporters' update:

This is to let everybody know the firm airdate for the Horse Series looking at the pros and cons of the horse slaughter industry. It is a 3 part series running over 3 nights on the Global Newshour at 6. It begins Monday May 25, the second part airs Tuesday May 26, and the final installment is Wednesday May 27.

Thanks to all for your efforts and voices for this project.

Sincerely,
Jill Croteau

Take care, Kathleen

Feature Horse of the Week

   
      If you would like your horse to be featured, please contact us.

Welcome and thank you for visiting Bar N K Rescue & Placement. I never dreamed that being asked by a friend to help re-home some horses would turn into my own website. The response to my call was overwhelming. 40 out of 60 head of my friends herd have been placed into good homes.

Bar N K Rescue & Placement will assist anyone who instead of making the decision to take your horse to auction, will try and re-home them for you. This can be done right off your farm. All you have to do is contact me, and I will try my best to assist you.

Feel free to give me a call or drop a line in an email. There are many homes waiting for that special someone.

  • My mare still visits me in my dreams and I long for the day when I can spend eternity in heaven with her. Even though many are loved and treated compassionately, so many horses come to a bad end after giving so much; it is organizations such as yours that will prevent these beautiful animals from suffering; may your work be blessed and may the word of your good works spread so that the number of horses spared grows.

  • To every occurance of mistreatment, neglect, abuse and killing of a horse, God counters with someone like you and all of the many people and organizations across this great land who are doing their part (and often times more) in saving, protecting and loving God's greatest creature.

    Thank you and God bless you and all horses.

  • We found your site durring our 'horse shopping' for a horse. No words can say how wonderful what you do is--or what a role model you are for us! It is our dream to rescue horses as soon as we own enough land. (its just dogs right now for us!) Don't ever stop saving and changing lives!

  • I have always wanted to run a program like yours. I didn't know if I would be able to aford it with no farm and all. I hate to see horses go to the auction or to the meat man. Great job.
