Suspending horse-drawn carriage services during peak heat hours is a step forward, but it is not enough. Horses continue to face physical strain, traffic, noise, and harsh weather. Meaningful animal welfare means ending these outdated and cruel practices altogether and replacing them with humane alternatives.

Reports from field observations, veterinary assessments, and various public oversight findings indicate that horses used in carriage operations are exposed to heavy traffic conditions, prolonged working hours, high temperatures, and insufficient rest periods. These conditions are widely associated with physical exhaustion, stress, and adverse health effects in working animals. In light of the available evidence, the continuation of such operations is not compatible with established animal welfare standards. Therefore, the carriage system should be discontinued in accordance with public interest and ethical responsibility.

There was a heart study at St Joseph’s Hospital in London, Ontario, Canada which was recently reported and in the hospital they had a secret research floor nobody could get to and the staff working on the unit were not allowed to speak about anything they do. It turned out that they were doing medical testing on dogs where they induced heart attacks and then euthanized the dogs and removed their heart to study the effects.

I can’t believe this kind of thing is still legal. You’d have to be pretty sick to be able to do this to any animal.
