Swab Tests Done By Tennessee Walking Show Horse Organization

The Tennessee Walking Show Horse Organization has released its results from the first round of swab test. Swab testing helps determine if a horse has been exposed to the practice of soring. As a result of TWSHO’s testing, three individuals have been suspended by the Walking Horse Trainers’ Association. The TWSHO’s goal is to rid the industry of trainers who use harmful chemicals on a horse’s front legs. The organization says swabbing is just the beginning of reform in the industry.
