Voice Your Opposition to the BLM's Proposed Roundup of 700 Wild Horses in Eastern Nevada (Diamond Complex)

BIG NEWS! Moran Amendment Passes Committee-Washington, D.C.--The language to disallow funding for inspections, originally passed into law in 2005 with bipartisan support, has effectively halted horse slaughter operations on American soil for years-that is, until late last year when three legislators quietly removed it from the Fiscal Year 2012 Appropriations bill behind closed doors during the reconciliation process.

Champ AKA Neptune Adopted By Lloyd and Jan Mower And Now Lives In Colorado

It took Champ 3 turnout sessions over a 36 hour time period to make himself part of our herd. During that time, we had a remarkable primer on herd dynamics and saw some revealing aspects of our 3 horses as they worked out the new kid. Blondie, who has been a terrible cribber and we thought the low horse in the pecking order, has wonderfully emerged as our lead mare. When we first turned Champ out with the others, we started by putting him out with just Karen (our dominant mare) and then, when all seemed calmed, with Magic, our gelding. Those two basically paid no attention to little Champ. However, when we added Blondie to the mix, she chased him away from the others and then they started mimicking her behavior and chasing him. He did a great job of running, evading, and then returning to the herd, asking sweetly over and over if he could join up with them. Due to the heat and their basic good natures, the chasing wasn't too aggressive and the older horses just stopped when they'd made their point. Finally, during the third session, Magic started toward him with his ears pinned and Blondie walked right between Magic and Champ and just casually stood there grazing, as if to say "leave the kid alone, he's alright with me." That was it. Champ remains quite attached to Blondie and pretty much shadows her every move. Yesterday, she was out for some exercise and we were working with him I his pen, just doing a little grooming and picking feet. He realized he couldn't see her, called to her, and here she came running as fast as she could right to him. He is quite comfortably settled in now and we're trying to just let him be a part of the herd, now that we feel he's safe. He is so centered and calm, he just amazes us. I think he and Lloyd are going to have a lot of fun together and I'm hoping I get to participate as well!
