What Do Horses Mean to Me? By Maddie Porter (a new volunteer)

Horses use to run free all over the world.  Now there are no true wild horses, they have all been domesticated.  The once "wild" horses are now locked up in pens being abused and sent off to slaughter houses for money.  These beautiful creatures are being tortured and abused.  Looking into a horses eye's you can see all the hope, passion and love they have.  I believe that horses can be your best companion and the best friend you have ever had.  Would you want to see these amazing creatures suffer?

My favorite thing about horses is their beauty and grace.  Horses are very big and can be dangerous but, all they want to do is be loved and cared for.  Even though they are so big, they can be one of the most graceful animals.  I don't care if I have to muck out stalls all day.  I will do anything to be around horses and at the stable.
