News From Europe

Thanks to our volunteers who are holidaying in Europe, we have some updates about hot branding there...it has been banned in Germany and Austria for approximately a year now.  Italy are in the process of getting it banned...so hopefully other European countries will soon follow suit.  The other countries that have already banned the hot branding of equines are: Denmark, Sweden, Holland, Scotland and Northern Ireland.  It's great to see that this issue is being taken seriously by so many governments across Europe.

It really is wonderful to see that there are so many countries taking the issue of hot branding seriously. Still not nearly as many as there should be, but it's a start.
