Can We Talk?

That old Joan Rivers line is a line that should be on the lips of the leadership of the Spanish Mustang Registry and the Horse of the Americas Registry. Momentum is building for support of a proposal that each registry appoint members of a joint committee to study ways that the two registries can work together to preserve the horses that descend directly from the Spanish explorers. Thoughtful people on both sides have recognized the need to make this one small step come into being. The annual meeting of the Spanish Mustang Registry is coming up soon and I hope that this issue will be on the table for discussion.

At this moment this is the most important issue facing our horses. It is time for all of us to look to the future instead of at past conflicts.

In the future we will all be able to look back at how we handle this opportunity and either say, "We built", or "We tore down."

Let's build.
