A proposed state bill would tighten Kentucky’s Tennessee Walking
Horse soring regulations at horse shows and sales. According to the
Lexington
Herald-Leader, the law would require consistent inspection by the
Kentucky Department of Agriculture at events, rather than lenient groups hired
by show organizers or the USDA. Competitors who fail soring inspections would be
subject to fines starting between $1,000 and $2,500. For more information, visit
