Object to walking horse 'Celebration' welcoming horse torturer Jackie McConnell back

Dear Friends, Allies, and Horse Warriors -

A few weeks ago we learned that the notorious horse torturer Jackie McConnell was welcomed back to the Tennessee Walking Horse National Celebration - the world championship show - with open arms. Not only was he embraced and allowed to return, but he also donated a trophy in one of the 'big lick' pain-based events. ABC Nightline exposed McConnell brutally beating, shocking, torturing, and soring horses in a 2012 expose that helped spark the PAST Act's introduction. 

Please send a message to the Tennessee Walking Horse National Celebration and tell them what you think of McConnell's return: https://twhnc.com/contact-us/ 

All the best,
