Taking Care of Our Own
 |
The recent re-legalization of horse slaughter in the U. S. brought to the forefront an issue that has been a hot-button topic within the Thoroughbred industry for years, and with good reason: What happens to Thoroughbreds when their racing days are behind them or who, for whatever reason, never make it to the racetrack.
At Three Chimneys, our view on the topic is simple: we take care of our own.
We have had a protocol in place for years regarding our policy on this subject, but until recently we chose to remain private about our practices, preferring to work quietly behind the scenes in many situations. With the debate now reinvigorated and the numerous questions we’ve been asked, we felt it was the appropriate time to be more forthcoming about how we view and address the issue. Read the rest here…
This is what the racing industry needs more of. Responsibility and compassion!
