Tacky Tack of the Day

A look at some of the most horrible examples of horse equipment on the market today. Please remember, this blog is simply MY opinions. Everyone has some and like armpits, some stink! It is all subjective anyway. I am not telling anyone what to use at all. I am just making observations and stating my own likes and dislikes. If you do not agree, fine, you are entitled. THERE IS NO ONE RIGHT WAY. Please, read and enjoy and try not to be ugly to others. Everyone has a right to their opinions.

Progress!

A bit off topic here, but this means a lot to the fight to end animal cruelty.

The state of Arkansas has signed into law a bill making cruelty to a horse, dog, or cat a Federal offense. Each count will be punishable by up to 6 years in prison and $5000 in fines.

Finally, one of the more "good ol' boy system" states steps up and takes a stand.

I live in this state (I am not from here, I moved here for work) and am so relieved to see this actually happen. I cannot stand reporting a blatant case of neglect or cruelty and seeing it go unchecked.

I live in Arkansas, too, and I was extremely pleased to see this become a law.
