Horizon, along with Al Cumings and UGA, was solely responsible for the investment and 4 years of battles, finally getting the USPS to start mailing live birds back in 1989.
We also helped push FedEx to accept live birds for the USPS in late 2006 just before the USPS was about to turn it completely off, 
helping hundreds of small businesses stay in business. We remain dedicated to being your voice in mailing live birds thru the USPS.
