Ban the use of horses within the police force

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Ban the use of horses in the police force. Use humans to control the situation, animals should not have to put themselves at risk because of an issue humans have created.

Police horses are present at protests, football games, marches and large gatherings. These are dangerous and unpredictable situations where the horses can be distressed and feel in danger. They do not have the freedom we take for granted.
