With Horse Abuse at an All-Time High, One Colorado Dude Ranch Helps to Educate Law Enforcement

By: PRLog
PR Log - Feb 16, 2012 - A recent news report from Wister, OK, indicates that the abuse of horses in America might be higher than ever before. Interviewers spoke to Elizabeth O'Neal of Triple O Ranch Equine Sanctuary, who said that one horse who came to their sanctuary was so starved and neglected that he could barely stand up. O'Neal speculated that the poor shape of the economy is leading many more horses to experience starvation, neglect and abuse (Source: 4029tv.com/r/30459576/detail.html ).

Colorado Dude Ranch, Colorado Trails, Holds 28th Annual Equine Abuse Investigators Training

Far to the west of Wister, OK, lies Colorado Trails Dude Ranch (ColoradoTrails.com), a guest ranch offering all inclusive family vacations in Durango, CO. Besides being a superior dude ranch, Colorado Trails has also been hosting an Equine Abuse Investigators Training for nearly three decades. 2012 will be the dude ranch's 28th year hosting the event. The horse lovers at this dude ranch in Colorado can't bear the thought of Elizabeth O'Neal in Oklahoma meeting one more horse who's so starved that he can't hold himself up.

Colorado Trails Dude Ranch turns out to be the perfect location for such an event. Working with the non-profit organization Code 3 Associates, Colorado Trails makes its horses, its lodging, its classrooms, and its fields available to the individuals who come to train each year to recognize the signs of an abused or neglected horse. Code 3 Associates provides the actual instruction; Colorado Trails provides everything else. The course is accredited by Colorado State University.

People who participate in the training come from all over the state of Colorado and beyond to learn about what to do when they suspect that a horse is being abused. Many of the attendees are members of law enforcement agencies, who are often on the “front lines” when it comes to recognizing that a horse might be mistreated.

About Colorado Trails Dude Ranch

As its work with Code 3 Associates suggests, Colorado Trails is no ordinary Colorado dude ranch. For starters, Colorado Trails has been in business for more than fifty years, offering all inclusive family vacations, an ideal wedding location, horseback riding vacations, and corporate meeting facilities. Furthermore, Colorado Trails also offers some very unique annual events; besides the Equine Investigator's Academy, Colorado Trails also offers an annual guest ranch art vacation, when people come to learn to paint and draw the amazing landscapes of Colorado.
