PLEASE STOP THE CRUEL PRACTICE OF HORSE 'SORING' NOW!

AT THORSPORT FARM IN TENNESSEE THERE IS A HORRENDOUSLY CRUEL PRACTICE GOING ON WHERE THEY APPLY CAUSTIC CHEMICALS AND CHAINS TO THE ANKLES OF BEAUTIFUL WALKING HORSES FOR THE SHEER PURPOSE OF HAVING THEM LIFT THEIR LEGS HIGHER IN A SHOW. I AM SICKENED BY THIS NEWS AND THE OWNER'S OF THESE ANIMALS SHOULD NEVER ALLOW THESE TRAINERS TO DO THIS. THE HORSES ARE IN SEVERE PAIN AND ANGUISH EVERY DAY. THIS CRUELTY HAS GOT TO STOP IMMEDIATELY. I WANT TO BE A VOICE FOR THESE ANIMALS AND I WOULD LIKE OTHERS FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD TO JOIN IN AND SIGN THIS PETITION.

PRESIDENT OBAMA PLEASE YOU ARE THE HEAD OF THE US YOU COULD EASILY PUT A BAN ON THESE PRACTICES NOW AND ALLOW THESE HORSES TO LIVE A PEACEFUL AND HAPPY EXISTENCE. THE CRUEL TRAINERS SHOULD ALL BE FIRED AND CHARGED WITH ANIMAL CRUELTY.
