These horses are at Camelot Aution- this place is owned by a horse dealer or broker. The photos are taken by volunteers who do not make any money doing this. Take a look- just because a horse ends up at an auction does not mean it or another, in its place, will be shipped to kill-- even if it is owned by a "dealer." Of course, there is always a chance that such a horse can end up shipped to kill, too. Most dealers would rather make the higher dollar selling a horse to a private owner. But remember those wil kill or slaughter contracts will still fill orders for the slaughter houses and will ship other horses to slaughter. The only way to stop this is to outlaw the sale and transport of horses to slaughter in or outside of the US. There are bills in Clogress right now that, if passed, will end the transport of horses in the US to slaughterhouses outside the US. Contact your Congressman or woman, and urge him or her to vote these measures into LAW. Meanwhile, if you are looking to buy a horse, check these out. it is always wise to get a pre-purchase vet exam on ANY horse you buy.
