Summary/Reflection


Summary/Reflection


This story was about the tournaments with horses. There was torture going on with the horses, just to train them to do some fancy walk. They put some chemicals near the horse’s ankles and would treat them harshly to walk like they did. All of this just for a ribbon that is worth $1.95. The people were becoming into evil monsters that harmed innocent animals for nothing. The trainers had no feelings towards this matter, and as a result, when they got caught, they ran out of business. Even Pepsi severed ties with the tournaments due to what the news found out.

I think that this is really disgusting. People should not be hurting animals just for pleasure. They hurt them to win a dumb medal that, in the end, isn’t even worth anything. The horses are beautiful and they don’t deserve that kind of treatment, not from anyone. The trainers need to go to jail for what they do to them, it is inhumane to torture or hurt an animal on purpose to win some money or medals. The trainers should also be forced to pay for the damages done to the horse and anything else they did harm to. The video was shocking and it was wrong for them to do that. I don’t think I’ll ever attend one of those tournaments, not after what I saw.
