Too many horses are stolen each year so Road to the Horse is joining fences with Stolen Horse International, Inc. Stolen Horse International is the ultimate equestrian resource to help distribute information about a lost, stolen or missing horse and educating the public about preventing theft and losses.

“Everyone knows the heart-wrenching terror of not being able to immediately recognize your horse in the pasture,” says Road to the Horse Producer Tootie Bland. “Even if the feeling is only for a split second, it’s awful to imagine something terrible happening to one of your animal family members.”

Having Stolen Horse International on your side is like having the James-Younger Gang working for you, scowling the country side, looking high and low, leaving no rock unturned until your horse arrives safely back at home. Shortly after filing a report an alert will be sent to a network of organizations, individuals, businesses and law enforcement dedicated to returning your horse.

The best way to stop a theft is to prevent it from happening; Stolen Horse International has valuable tools available to educate horse riders and owners. Learn more about Stolen Horse International at Road to the Horse 2013 in Lexington, KY March 15-17.
