Endlich hat sich die TWHBEA als Zuchtverband eindeutig zu den Praktiken des Sorings, der Big Lick Pferde und den vielfältigen technischen Hilfsmitteln zur Animierung des Gangs bekannt. Endlich können sie es nicht mehr der Showhorse Commission, dem Celebration Management u.s.w. in die Schuhe schieben. Die Big Lick Funktionäre haben die Macht in der TWHBEA übernommen und werden auch von unseren deutschen Direktoren unterstützt. |

The International Board of Directors of the TWHBEA strongly opposes the legislation introduced by Representative Whitfield in the U.S. House of Representatives; the legislation introduced by Senator Kelly Ayotte in the U.S. Senate; and any other legislation which would make it illegal to ride or show a sound Tennessee Walking Horse.
Both of these proposed laws would make it a federal crime to show sound, healthy Tennessee Walking Horses which have never been sored, unless those horses are shown barefooted or in an "unweighted" shoe.
The great majority of Tennessee Walking Horses are shown in weighted shoes and some in pads and action devices, meeting the strict guidelines of the various divisions and the detailed regulations of the USDA. This equipment does not harm the horse.
These proposed laws would also abolish the HIO inspection system now approved and supervised by the USDA. If this system is abolished, the great majority of show horses will not be inspected or protected.
The International Board of Directors of the TWHBEA strongly supports working with the USDA and other appropriate industry stakeholders to identify and use objective, scientifically reliable testing methods to identify and eliminate sore horses.
