TheHorse.com’s Ask the Vet LIVE Q&A event on unwanted horses was held on June 22, and the recording is now available.

According to a recent survey of horse owners and industry stakeholders, horses classified as "unwanted" are a growing problem in the United States, to the tune of roughly 170,000 horses per year1. News reports of neglect are published almost daily, and more than half of equine rescue facilities are full and turning away horses brought to them1.

How did our horse industry get to this point, and how can each of us help solve the problem and save these horses from abuse and neglect? Attendees got answers to these and many more questions during TheHorse.com’s free Ask the Vet LIVE online Q&A chat about Unwanted Horses.
