Calgary has had miserable, rainy, weather during most of the stampede this year. Watching the bull riding, roping of steers and chuck wagon races, on T.V. news last night, with everyone covered in mud, I'm thinking this is entertainment! I become more disgusted with the whipping and treatment of animals each year. Rodeos have gone on for years, I'm 70 and remember accompanying my dad to rodeos as a kid, however could it be time for these cowboys to find another way to make a living? Your thoughts? |

Most end of life horses end up as hamburger in France. |

Greyhound race dogs are put out for adoption. They make wonderful house pets. I was in a mall in Boston and they had them in a pen where you could go up and pet them. Very friendly. I would have loved to take one home. Hopefully some race horses go out for adoption as well. My niece owns and rides a horse. |
