Trying to educate people about responsible horse ownership is as tough or tougher than trying to educate many about responsible dog and cat ownership if not tougher. There are many publications, videos, books, programs from the USDA for children and adults, still the problems. For many years people have been trying in vain to educate people about horses, and still are. Seems like those that need the information the worst are the last to want or heed advice from anyone.
I’m sure you’re right. I don’t know what the answer is. It would be a lot easier for me if I didn’t love horses, I guess.
