Is it true that the UK declared the Strasser Method illegal?

No, it is not. There have recently been a couple of court cases in the United Kingdom that have a link to Dr. Strasser. However, the cases had nothing to do, legally, with Dr. Strasser or her method. They are cases against private, individual UK citizens -- animal cruelty charges brought up against these horse owners or caretakers of severely foundered ponies/horses. From what I understand, in the United Kingdom, it is illegal to keep an animal alive if it is in any kind of pain. Either its pain must be eliminated, or it must be euthanized. The persons found guilty in these cases were Strasser Hoofcare Professionals or students, who were caring for foundered equines. Some of the tabloid-style propaganda reports of the most recent case make it sound like the Strasser method was found guilty of causing the suffering. Ironically, according to sources, in both cases the equines were brought to the Strasser professionals after traditional methods of care had been a total failure, and the animals were suffering previous to any Strasser treatment
