A Little Believin’ Goes A Long Way

The following is from All About Equine Animal Rescue: At AAE, we don’t stop believin’ in second chances, and neither do our volunteers!  That belief is part of what brings people to AAE and what keeps them coming back. This month, we’re getting to know some of our newer, wonderful volunteers, learning a little more about their AAE story, and finding out what makes volunteering here so special to them. Meet Mary B.! AAE Volunteer for 8 months! What do you do as an AAE Volunteer? I am a Store Lead at AAE's Used Tack Store.

I have been a long-time customer and donor to AAE. My last senior horse passed away in April of 2025, and I truly missed the equine world after 35+ years of continuous horse ownership. When the opportunity came to volunteer at the AAE Used Tack Store, I decided this was my way to stay connected to the horse community and help this fantastic organization. Being a Store Lead has allowed me to not only assist customers, but also learn about all disciplines of horse tack. I've also been able to put my inventory management and operational skills to use in simplifying the saddle log book and helping to increase our social media presence by listing all our available saddles online. All the store leads do such a great job of ...

Meet Toothless: A Sweet Senior Ready for a Second Chance

The following is from All About Equine Animal Rescue: Every horse deserves a safe place to grow old, surrounded by comfort, kindness, and the care they need to thrive. Our August Adoption Spotlight is finally on that path. While his recovery isn't quite finished, this sweet senior has already captured the hearts of everyone he meets. TOOTHLESS Toothless arrived at AAE with six other horses in August 2025 after law enforcement stepped in to help. Their owner, the horsewoman of the family, had become bedridden, and her spouse simply didn't have the knowledge or experience to care for them. Over time, the horses' condition declined dramatically. They had been living in stalls, standing on mounds of manure with no turnout for years. While they had access to food and water, they hadn't received the basic care every horse needs. Their hooves hadn't seen a farrier in years, and their dental health had been neglected for far too long. For Toothless, that neglect was especially painful. He suffers from Equine Odontoclastic Tooth Resorption and Hypercementosis (EOTRH), a painful dental disease that commonly affects older horses. When he arrived, he had only one remaining lower front tooth, fractured at the gumline, while the rest had broken away or died. It's no surprise he had become so thin. Since arriving at AAE, Toothless has received the care he desperately needed. His damaged teeth and roots were extracted, his hooves were trimmed, he received vaccinations, a sheath cleaning, a microchip, and plenty of nutritious feed. Thankfully, all of his molars are healthy, so he can continue enjoying hay (his favorite meal) even after his dental procedure. With time, good nutrition, and lots of TLC, we're confident he'll continue gaining weight and feeling like himself again. UPCOMING EVENTS August 8 Facility and Special Projects ...

See What July Brought to AAE

The following is from All About Equine Animal Rescue: Can you believe how fast summer is flying by? July kept us busy in all the best ways! From celebrating an adoption and welcoming a new little guy to the barn to sharing pizza with our incredible community members, it's been another month full of progress, support, and happy moments. Read on to catch up on what's been happening around AAE this month. TEDDY Teddy was our Horse of the Month in June, and guess what?! He was adopted in July! We’re so excited for this sweet guy after everything he’s been through. Teddy came to AAE in December 2023 with his buddy, Kody. A neighbor of theirs helped rescue them from a neglect situation. He was emaciated when he arrived emaciated, and he had severe diarrhea, overgrown hooves, dental needs, and health other issues that required lots of care and patience. With proper nutrition, medical care, and plenty of TLC, Teddy transformed, not just physically, but emotionally too. He regained his strength, his personality started to shine, and he proved what a kind, steady horse he is.
