Blue Horse Charities was formed in 2001 to assist those providing a a humane solution for Thoroughbreds no longer suitable for breeding or racing. Most particularly, our immediate emphasis is to keep all Thoroughbreds out of the hands of “Killer buyers”. For those of us who love horses — and that’s what got us in to the game in the first place — letting our horses end their days in a slaughter house is no way to show it.
