Three Ways to Help Horses in 2009: A) World-renowned natural horsemanship trainers, Pat and Linda Parelli will use their methods to help rescued horses find forever homes through the HSUS. Special opportunity to help rescued horses and see humane training in action. B) Bid on Exclusive, VIP Packages to Indy Motor Speedway Races and help the HSUS help neglected horses by promoting responsible horse ownership and combating equine abuse and cruelty. C) Ask Your Member of Congress to End Horse Slaughter - with a new Congress, we have an amazing opportunity to make this the year to finally ban the cruel transport of horses for slaughter for human consumption on U.S. soil as well as in other countries. Ask your Representative to co-sponsor and vote in favor of H.R. 503. It's just a click and/or a phone call - real quick to do, but makes a great impact!

Eyeopening HBO documentary. Sad, that people have to go undercover, sometimes risking their life in order to show the public the horrific treatment that happens in factory farming situations. It is understandable that farm owners are pressured to produce more and more to satisfy the public's demand, but let's not forget that they need to provide the most humane treatment to raise these animals and the most painLESS way to slaughter them. HBO does not advocate turning people into vegetarians, they leave that to the individual. They just open your eyes to 'where' the perfectly packaged 'meat' in your supermarket comes from. Thank you HBO, keep up the good work!
