To more efficiently share Horse Protection Act (HPA) information, USDA Animal Care will now use the USDA/APHIS Stakeholder Registry to periodically alert you when we post our disqualification lists and enforcement actions.

 

The following link will take you to the most recent list of violators who have been disqualified from participating in HPA-regulated horse shows/exhibitions/sales/auctions: http://www.aphis.usda.gov/animal_welfare/hp/downloads/reports/USDAHPDQ_01072014.pdf.

 

The following link will take you to the USDA news release that includes the most recently completed HPA enforcement cases: http://www.aphis.usda.gov/newsroom/2013/12/awa_november.shtml.

 

We will continue to do all we can to make the cruel and inhumane practice of soring horses a thing of the past. For more information, please visit our Horse Protection Program webpage: http://www.aphis.usda.gov/animal_welfare/hpa_info.shtml.

 

 

At USDA Animal Care, ensuring the welfare of the animals we regulate is at the heart of everything we do.
