World Horse Welfare has warmly welcomed the UK Government’s recommendations for an updated equine identification system. But it is concerned that implementation will not be quick enough to fully address all the challenges currently faced by equine owners and keepers.
Leading eventers Pippa Funnell and Ailsa Wates talk about "Balancing the needs of the horse with the pressure of competition" in the latest free webinar from World Horse Welfare.
“Things that used to be common practice and done in a not-so-secret way, maybe behind closed doors or behind the barn are not acceptable anymore. We need to be willing to call out that behaviour when we see it.”
