Looks like the BIG LICK is finally a thing of the past.
with new laws in place that trainers and judges no longer can injure a horse to perform those outlandish exaggerated high steps.. thankfully the voice of the public has been heard. and with undercover people the laws are changing to protect the horse that has to rely on us humans to speack for them

Hopefully this puts an end to the horrible torture these horses go thru during their show careers.. and i do hope the judges and shows keep an eye out for legs that have been abused during training at home..
the horses deserve to be helped and taken care of.. and the walker used as it is intended.. not fake.. legs up to the nose. and eyes wide from pain.

To me they looked like they were in pain all the time. Anyways, glad it's ower.

I'm so glad to see this may be ending.

I saw a video once from a long time ago, and it was I guess the first black woman to ever compete, and her horse was not sored or shod poorly. And out of them all- hers looked the best. I just wish she had won!
