Go to an auction (they are all over the country) and pull a weaning out of the slaughter pipeline. Yes, even babies ship to slaughter, as well as pregnant mares. Instead of adding to the problem by breeding your mare, go save a life!

There are many good quality horses out there that nobody can take care of anymore, and you also know exactly what you are getting if you rescue or buy a horse instead of breeding for something that you want.
