~New horses available for adoption~
HPAF took in two horses that were survivors of
a murder/suicide in Chiefland, Florida in September.
Thirty goats, seven dogs, a miniature horse and a
burro were also killed. Three horses, two ponies,
a cow and a few goats were left on the property
unharmed. It is unknown why so many animals were
killed or why some were spared.
Pie is an approximately 2 year old filly who
appears to be part Arabian and will likely be a large
pony when full grown. Rosie is an adorable miniature
horse, probably in her teens. She is sweet and has
perfect manners. Rosie is an easy keeper and will
need to be kept on a strict diet to prevent laminitis
from developing. Both are seeking permanent
homes.

A NEW TAX-SAVING
OPPORTUNITY
for DONORS AGE 70 ½ or OLDER
If you are 70 ½ or older, recent
legislation benefits you! Under
the Pension Protection Act of
2006, you can make lifetime gifts
using funds from your Individual
Retirement Accounts (IRAs)
without undesirable tax effects.
Your gifts can be accomplished
simply and will enable you to jump
start your legacy and witness the
benefits of your generosity to the
Horse Protection Association of
Florida, Inc.
You may contribute gifts this way
if:
• You are age 70 ½ or older.
• The gifts do not total more
than $ 100,000.
• You make the gifts on or
before December 31, 2007.
• You transfer funds directly
from an IRA or Rollover IRA
to a public charity, but not a
supporting organization or
donor advised fund.
Contact your IRA custodian to
transfer your desired gift amount
to the charitable organization of
your choice. It is also wise to
consult tax professionals if you
are contemplating gifts under the
new law.

Please don’t breed more horses!
The calls are increasing from people who need to give away their horses because they
can’t afford to keep them and haven’t been able to sell them. This morning alone, people
called about two yearlings, a two year old, and a 12 year old Thoroughbred they need to
give away. Almost every day we receive an email or phone call about a horse needing
a home. Now that slaughter for human consumption has been stopped in the U.S., the
value of horses has dropped even lower than it was before. The problem - too many
horses being bred. The U.S. is overloaded with horses, which is why 100,000 horses a
year have been going for horse meat bound for Europe and Japan.
Americans have been overbreeding for so long that they have created an inexpensive
meat source for other countries. Please, please do not create more horses by breeding
your mare or stallion. Invest in training which will increase the value of the horses that
you already have. Take in an unwanted young horse and give that horse the training
and foundation that will make the horse a desired and valuable animal who has hope for
a lifetime home.
