Some majestic Tennessee Walking Horses are subject to an extreme and cruel practice called soring — the intentional infliction of pain to horses' front limbs to create an exaggerated high-stepping gait known as the “big lick."

Send an email to APHIS Administrator Kevin Shea by filling out the form below. When you're finished, don't forget to follow up with a phone call! Call (202) 720-3631. You can say, "Hi, I'm a constituent, and I'm calling to ask that you please send USDA inspectors to help stop soring at Tennessee Walking Horse shows that begin this month.” 

Your action will be sent to Kevin Shea to let him know that you think that it's long past time to end the rampant abusive practice of soring.
