A Sweet Cup of Coffey

The following is from All About Equine Animal Rescue: Every horse has a story, and we want you to know theirs. This October, we’re sharing the story of a sweet girl who just might be the perfect pick-me-up. We’ll take a closer look at where she came from, who she is today, and what kind of home might be the right fit for her. By spotlighting one horse at a time, we hope you’ll get to know them beyond their adoption bio, and maybe discover a horse who catches your eye, or someone you know who could be their perfect match. So grab your coffee and get to know this sweet girl... COFFEY Coffey, an approximately 25-year-old Arabian mare, arrived at AAE in late January 2026 after her elderly owners found themselves facing significant health and financial challenges. Saying goodbye to a horse they loved was not an easy decision, but surrendering Coffey gave them peace of mind that she would have the care, stability, and attention she needed. Once she and completed quarantine and settled in at AAE, it was time to get Coffey caught up on some of the basics. She enjoyed a few well-earned spa days, including a hoof trim, dental care, vaccines, and deworming, she got a microchip. She was in good physical condition overall and has continued to do well.

Chilly Pepper -UPDATE – Baby’s Injuries are worse than expected. Please help!

The following is from Chilly Pepper - Miracle Mustang: Warrior Princess is a filly. This was truly a dire emergency. Every minute counts with such a horrific injury, and we needed to get meds on board asap. I am so grateful I said yes to helping this filly. as her wounds are extremely serious, and potentially life threatening. After our emergency vet visit, we have our plan. Warrior Princess has a gaping hole in her leg, almost as if someone took a huge bite out of her. There are bears, coyotes and wild dogs on the range. It was definitely NOT a cat attack. Her wound is to the bone. There are puncture wounds around the area as well. She is on all sorts of meds and the clay is already pulling out the infection. She is a fighter, and the fact she survived the attack and is still here shows she is truly another "Miracle Mustang". ** The truck is in the shop**, and I need $1500 to cover the rear brakes and Mama's "bail". We were offered the baby alone, but even the folks who called really wanted us to take Mama so they could stay together. That was a no brainer. My trailer is 37 feet long, and extremely heavy. I cannot pull it knowing I needed rear brakes, so I had to get that done before I loaded up the horses to come home. The next step is to get Mama's bail covered and the truck repairs done. This will be a long, care intensive situation and hopefully she will survive and thrive. THANK YOU FOR STEPPING UP FOR THIS MAMA AND BABY!!!

Chilly Pepper -911 – Emergency Rescue in Progress. Badly Injured Baby

The following is from Chilly Pepper - Miracle Mustang: Urgent plea for help! Today's call came in and I simply could not say no to this one. Stormy and I were literally on the road within 15 minutes, and we will be there tomorrow early afternoon. My leg is still basically broken and as I need another surgery, most of the time 4 or 5 hours of driving can cause enough pain to be distracted and unsafe. I was called specifically because this baby needs intense critical care, and that is our specialty. Baby and Mama are both wild. I need immediate help (PLEASE!!!!) with funds for fuel, $800 (JUST for the Diesel) maybe more? We need funds for Emergency vet care, meds, more clay, and feed for these two. I should probably get the brakes done on the truck prior to pulling home the loaded trailer as well. Doc is already standing by. She will need to pull blood on Mama so we can get paperwork so I can bring them home. Baby sounds like he needs some serious help as well. Hard to tell from the photos, but I was told he can hardly walk and needs medical asap.

Chilly Pepper -Urgent help needed ! Still short for matching funds offer

The following is from Chilly Pepper - Miracle Mustang: Hi, Thank you to everyone who has donated. We are still short about $187 towards the matching funds. Even after we are blessed with the matching funds, we still will need more help to complete the barn roof and work on securing enough hay for the winter. The truck needs to be serviced and also needs brakes. It is just a part of life but always seems to come at the most difficult times. Much less expensive to maintain the equipment than let it break down. I realize times are really tough for many of you out there, myself included. However, Chilly Pepper still needs more help to make sure we get the hay we need BEFORE the prices go up again. Every day the price of diesel rises and folks are buying what little hay is available, and that means it will cost less if we purchase now instead of later. We still need funds to get that barn roof finished. I am working on as many adoptions as I can, but as most folks know, horses are being dumped at an alarming rate. I am having to say no everyday until we have enough hay and get some of these kids adopted. Please don't give up on us now. Even though times are exceedingly tough right now, we still need to keep saving lives and taking care of the horses you have saved. Thank You so much from all of the critters at Chilly Pepper! Winter appears to be coming fast and hard. We are already seeing nights in the 30's. Let's keep these kids safe, warm and well fed.

A Bonus Tuesday: Meet the New Mustangs

The following is from All About Equine Animal Rescue: September has an extra Tuesday this year, so you’re getting a little bonus story from AAE! We thought we’d use this extra opportunity to introduce to you, a group of eight mustangs who recently came through our gates. Their stay with us is temporary for most, but each arrived needing a little help while plans for their final destinations were being made. Here’s a little more about these new arrivals and how AAE was able to help. Last month, AAE got a call about a group of ten horses from one of our law enforcement friends. Their elderly owner needed assistance. A few weeks ago, AAE welcomed eight formerly "wild" horses: Chester, Spot, Snickers, Cowboy, Smudge, Snort, Suzi, and Spirit. They are mostly older and include BLM, state, and tribal mustangs. Two remained at home, as they were the most special needs, and two is much more manageable than ten. Their mom had spent more than two decades advocating for and helping wild horses. The past few years have been hard on her after a serious injury, followed by additional health issues. Keeping up with the needs of her small herd of horses became more than she could manage without any help at home. Though she did the best she could, she couldn't keep up. What she really wanted was her kids to roam free again. Since AAE is currently deep with senior and special needs horses, it would have been difficult to take on another large group of senior horses long term. That said, AAE and their mom went to work, and the stars aligned. With the help of two wonderful organizations, Wild Horse Sanctuary and LifeSavers Wild Horse Rescue, we were able to secure lifelong sanctuary placement for six ...
