A Special Tribute

It’s AAE story-time!  Horses of 2018:

Apologies, this was supposed to go out yesterday,
but time got away from us.
As we say goodbye to 2018, we wanted one last tribute to honor three very special horses we lost this year,
three of AAE program horses:  Marshmallow, Kasey, and Kaya.

Marshmallow

Our amazing little Marshmallow was helped across the rainbow bridge after a sudden decline with his health.  When he came to AAE in March 2014, he had been sick, and past owner’s efforts to help him failed.  After a plethora of diagnostics, he was diagnosed with either stomach cancer or irritable bowel disease. He responded tremendously well to medication (steroids), and he recovered quite well.  He had a fabulous four and a half years with us at AAE, and he brought smiles and happiness to SOOO many people.  Sadly, he started having occasional bouts of colic over the summer, and in November, he declined rapidly.  It was quite obvious he was not going to get better this time.  He made his last trip to Loomis Basin in the back of “his” van.  It was his first trip in “Marshy’s Van”, a mini van we’d just acquired for transporting him and other mini’s to retirement homes, youth events, and outreach activities. We miss this little man so much!

Kasey

Kasey came to AAE with his buddies Angus and Daisy in April of 2016.  Kasey was another magically gentle giant that befriended another herd of humans while at AAE.  His kind nature and gentle soul put everyone at ease in his massive presence.  Kasey battled hoof abscesses off and on almost the entire time he was here.  Usually, they’d resolve relatively quickly.  Until the last one.  Kasey fought valiantly.  After what was looking to be a long, successful battle; inexplicably, his coffin bone rotated severely in a matter of days.  As uncomfortable as he was, he gave his all.  His pain was simply too much to ask him to endure any longer.  

We miss this big guy a ton!

KAYA

Kaya was another wonderful resident at AAE.  She was the go to girl for kids, parties, camps, and any time we needed a calm, quiet, and trustworthy horse.  Kaya came to AAE in February 2014 through another organization after she was saved from an auction.  She was lame.  She had served someone well for years, then she was dumped at an auction where known kill buyers shop.  Fortunately, she was saved, and with time and good hoof care, her lameness resolved.  Sadly, she colicked in January, then again in February, when we learned she also had a diaphragmatic hernia. A portion of her intestines had pushed into her chest cavity.  It would have been quite a surgery to repair both issues, and there was also a stone in her intestines that complicated things further.  It was simply too much to put her through and not the best of chances for recovery.  We had to say good bye.
This sweet girl is missed so much.

Thanks to your support, Marshy, Kasey, and Kaya were able to live out their lives at AAE with lots of love, and so many youth and adults were able to share the wonder of horses.

3 days until 2019, YOUR donation means more horses can be helped!  Donate Today!

 

‘Tis the Season, time to join AAE every day this month as we share stories straight from the barn to show how your support has helped horses in 2018.   This year was very special, and there are so many stories to be thankful for!
As we count down to 2019, please help us prepare for another year of helping horses.  Your donations will assure we have ample funding for veterinary care to
help horses in need as we move into a new year.

Happy Holidays to all of our friends and supporters!

There are only a few days left for us to reach our goal-won’t you please consider a donation?

At SYALER, ALL of your donated funds go directly toward the care of the donkeys, mules, and hinnies, as they wait for their forever homes. We only have one full time paid employee, the rest of the work (and it’s a lot!) is done by a dedicated team of volunteers. Your support is essential to continue our mission!

Please consider a donation of any amount.  Even $5 will buy a bale of hay, $35.00 will pay for a hoof trim, and $70 will cover a farm call by one of our wonderful veterinarians.

And now, with our fearless leader Ann Firestone out of commission with a broken leg, funds are also needed to hire temporary barn help until she gets back on her feet.

We wish you all a wonderful holiday season, and send a heartful thank you for your continued support ️

 

ChEARS,

 

Ann

It’s AAE story-time!  Horses of 2018: 

Jesse and Jengo

These two boys came to AAE after the unexpected death of their owner left them alone, and family was strained by providing care because they lived an hour away.  Jesse and Jengo are two younger mustang geldings that are currently under evaluation.
Jesse and Jengo recently finished quarantine,
and we’re still getting to know them.
They’ve scheduled for hoof and dental care, as well as vaccines, deworming, and microchips.  Stay tuned for more info about these guys.
Sadly, too often we get calls from families who have lost a loved one, and they’ve left a horse(s) behind.  Often times, family doesn’t have the resources or experience to care for a horse(s), and they are burdened by physical and financial responsibilities.
Do you know what would happen to your horse(s) if something happened to you?  Have you set aside some funding to assure they’ll be taken care of?  It’s important to have those hard discussions, and make plans for unexpected emergencies.
Thanks to your support and foster care, two more horses in need have been helped.

4 days until 2019, YOUR donation means more horses can be helped!  Donate Today!

 

‘Tis the Season, time to join AAE every day this month as we share stories straight from the barn to show how your support has helped horses in 2018.   This year was very special, and there are so many stories to be thankful for!

Rascal, A Little Miracle Thanks to You

The following is from All About Equine Animal Rescue:

It’s AAE story-time!  Horses of 2018: 

Rascal Update!

This little Rascal faced a lot of challenges from her first moments on Earth! AAE’s call for help with Rascal came on April 5, 2017.  DreamCatcher Wild Horse and Burro Sanctuary was in transition after the long illness and passing of their Executive Director, Barbara Clarke, in November of 2016.  We are so happy they reached out for this little gal!
She is as special as they come.
Rascal was just hours old when her mom scaled a six foot paddock and left her behind.  She was located over five hours away, so we mobilized and met in the middle in Reno to pick her up.  She was very weak, and couldn’t get up on her own, so our first stop was Loomis Basin Equine Medical Center.  She was hospitalized.
The initial outlook was good until her blood values took a dive in the night.  Fortunately, by morning, she was fighting back.
As it turns out, she was fighting a severe selenium deficiency that caused white muscle disease, which also put her kidneys in distress.
This sweet little filly could not stand up on her own for the first 26 days of her life.
She’d wait patiently for a “boost”.  (This pic is after 26 days, but this is how she’d wait).
Thanks to your support, the excellent care of the staff at LBEMC for 13 days of her life and 24/7 care of dedicated volunteers at AAE for another 13 days, she Rascal was finally able to STAND on her own.
Rascal had several more hurdles along the way including two bouts with c. diff  bacteria causing nasty diarrhea, a large umbilical hernia surgically repaired (after the c. diff resolved), a massive hoof abscess, and a month after hernia repair surgery, chronic diarrhea that lasted for nearly a year.  A plethora of diagnostics were done to rule out the bad guys (it was not another bout of c. diff ), a variety of feed changes, a variety of supplements, a few changes in housing and locations, and various other efforts didn’t resolve the mystery or the runs.  Eventually, pasture life did.
Thanks to her umbilical hernia, she was often confused for a gelding.
This was surgically repaired.
Massive hoof abscess that rattled everyone, but we were all grateful
when it finally exposed it’s ugly self.
Chronic diarrhea, blood tests, abdominal ultrasound, and a variety of diagnostics couldn’t get to the “bottom” of it.

Looking gorgeous as ever, and still hiding the chronic diarrhea very well.  She had an adoption pending resolution of the diarrhea that never resolved.  Adoption fell through, but adopter fell madly in love with another cutie pie.  Rascal just wasn’t ready to leave.

Today, she is healthy and thriving, and most significantly, she passes normal poop.
For Rascal (and all of us), that’s reason to celebrate.
That being said, due to her history of white muscle disease, there is potential her muscles were compromised, so she is not considered a prospect for hard work (e.g. endurance, performance work, competition, or anything that might be too demanding on her systems).  Though she is very active in the herd and she runs up and down the sloped pasture at AAE, she is looking for a home where she can learn to become a casual, easy going trail horse or some other lighter activity.

Rascal is a gorgeous gal.  She loves people, is a bit spoiled, and she will need a confident handler to maintain boundaries.  She halters, leads, and is good with her feet, but can be a little impatient with the farrier.  She is ready for her own bff in her forever home.

Beau Needs A Santa!

The following is from All About Equine Animal Rescue:

It’s AAE story-time!  Horses of 2018: 

Beau

Beau came to AAE in mid-July when his aging owner was no longer able to care for him, and his family caretaker was moving out of state.  Beau is a 1990 Arabian gelding.  He was a truly beloved companion to the family, he had been with them his entire life, and he had carried many a rider on his back.  Still, his condition was saddening.

It was a bit eye-opening when Beau arrived.  He was a bit on the emaciated side, and he was “empty”.  Dr Stolba came to check him out and drew blood to evaluate his “systems”. His diet had been four scoops of senior pellets (AM and PM), about 20-25 pounds a day. You would think plenty for this lil guy, right? You could tell immediately simply eating was a challenge.  He chewed very gingerly, and food fell all over around the trough.

Sadly, when Dr. Stolba opened his mouth, the exasperated sigh was palpable.  Beau did not have many teeth, and the ones he had were much overgrown, some loose and one so long it was pushing into the roof of his mouth causing an ulcer.  He could not close his mouth to chew.  It’s no wonder the poor ol’ guy looked like he did; he couldn’t eat. Four larger teeth were extracted, one so sharp it could cut paper.  The few remaining back teeth were floated, and he was finally able to eat comfortably.
Boy, did he enjoy it.  Now it seems he’s eating for two.

Moving on to the other end, Beau’s sheath got some much needed attention, and he was beyond relief when a rock sized bean was removed. It didn’t take long to see the brightness return to Beau’s eyes and a little pep in his step.

Beau recovered very well and slowly redeveloping his svelte lil’ bod!
Well, does svelte have fat pads?  Beau is a lovely ol’ guy.  He loves attention and really enjoys a long grooming session.  He was ridden a lot in his younger days.  His last riding relationship was a couple years ago with a 12 year old girl in a lease situation.  We were told it was a great relationship, but not much more about his girl’s experience or what activities they did, only that he rode very well for his age.

In his younger years, Beau was part of a three horse team that rode across the US on the Pony Express Trail.  He rode about 800 of the 2000 miles.  About seven years ago, he had a bout of laminitis/founder, but thankfully, he recovered very well. Dr. Stolba provided care for this guy back then, but unfortunately, when he arrived at AAE, she hadn’t seen him for a few years.  His hooves didn’t appear to have been trimmed for a while.  Updated radiographs showed no obvious changes in his hooves since his episode seven years ago.  He had thin soles, and he was a tad tender footed, so he had shoes placed on his fronts.

Beau is current with vaccines, deworming, and hoof and dental care.  He has a microchip in place.  He has very good ground manners, he ties and stands for the farrier.  With a long history of riding, he should load and trailer fine, but hasn’t yet been loaded since he arrived.  He was tested for Cushing’s and results were negative.  Because he has only a few teeth left, he needs a strictly pelleted diet and a diet that is appropriate for a horse that has foundered.  His future housing should not be in a green, grassy pasture.

Beau is looking for a new home where he will be doted on and pampered like the good ol’ guy that he is.  He might have some light riding with a light rider in his future, but priority should be a solid companion home, and the riding should be a bonus (not a requirement).  Beau should NOT be an only horse. During his time with AAE, he has bonded tightly to his neighbors, so a home with at least a couple other horses might be best.  He gets anxious when he is in his paddocks and his buddies leave, are taken out/away or wander away from him.  He does fine when he is taken away from his paddock.

Skye’s the Limit!

It’s AAE story-time!  Horses of 2018: 

Skye

Skye is a beautiful Arabian mare that came to All About Equine from a former Arabian breeding ranch in March of 2015 after the last member of the family passed away. She is estimated to be about 16 years old (per teeth).  She lived her entire life in large, grassy pastures that backed up to the Cosumnes River.  It didn’t seem she’d had any care for several years.  Skye was living with three other mares when we got the call.
She was social, but timid.
As a result of Skye’s neglect prior to coming to AAE, she experienced chronic laminitis.  She was not lame when she came in, but she had very long toes.  Radiographs showed she had developed a very slight tipping (ski tip) of her coffin bone.  She has not shown any signs of lameness while at AAE.  She was cleared for light/casual riding by vet, with the caveat that she might need shoes.
Skye spent several weeks at the Monty Roberts International Learning Center (MRILC) where she participated as a project horse during MRILC courses.  She was socialized, learned basic groundwork, and she was introduced to ground driving and started under saddle (light work, no rider).
Not long after she returned to AAE from MRILC, Skye was adopted (August 2015).  She came back to AAE earlier this year, in July 2018, after her adopter felt she wasn’t getting what she needed.  Though he loved her, he felt she deserved more.  While away, Skye got a ton of groundwork, and she was ridden a handful of times in an arena.  Per prior owner, she did better with an experienced, smaller rider.  He also thought he might be too heavy for her and worried about her hooves, but he said she never showed any signs of lameness.

Skye has grown into a very sweet, willing, mild-mannered mare (with humans), and she loves grooming and attention.  She is mare-ish in a herd environment.

Skye is up to date with vaccinations, deworming, and hoof and dental care.  She had a micro-chip in place.  Skye recently (July 2018) tested positive for insulin resistance, and she is given a daily supplement (ThryoVet) with her feed.
She is on an orchard grass only diet.

The following is from All About Equine Animal Rescue:

It’s AAE story-time!  Horses of 2018: 

Clancey

Clancey is a 25-ish year old Quarter/Arab mare that came to AAE through no fault of her own.  Her owner was moving and she was taken in by another family on an impulse to help, but her new family’s other horses were not accepting her.
Clancey has a pretty face and really loves attention and grooming.  Her previous owner rode her in all types of events:  trail riding, gymkhana, high school rodeo barrel racing, polebending, and parades.  Clancey has very good ground manners other than being a little pushy with her head.  She follows along by your side, turns both directions easily, stops and backs up on command.  She loads into trailer with no problem.
She stands for farrier with no fuss.  Pictured here riding in a halter with a lead rope.
Clancey is swaybacked, but recent vet exam indicated she was in good health cleared for light riding.  That being said, she’s an older mare and swaybacked, so a lighter rider is most appropriate.  We were told she is great for kids.  Her back teeth are worn to the gums, so she needs a diet of soaked pellets or soaked cubes. She is a very nice little horse — a bit spoiled and pushy right now, but responds well to signals and training. She is people oriented, lovable. She’d be a super horse for a child or teenager.
This sweet ol’ girl needs a home.  Do you have room?  Clancey is current with hoof and dental care, vaccines, and deworming.  She tested borderline insulin resistant and should get a daily thyroid supplement
This is the time of year we are overwhelmed with requests for help with horses.  If you’re interested in adopting or fostering, please contact AAE.

One Door Closes and Another One Opens

The following is from All About Equine Animal Rescue:

It’s AAE story-time!  Horses of 2018: 

Shelby

Shelby came to AAE in April 2017.  She had basically been abandoned, then given to a neighbor after they found her roaming the neighborhood with a rope around her neck and contacted her owner.  Her new owners contacted AAE after they realized they did not know enough about horses to provide proper care. Although they fed her, she was thin.  Her new owners were unable to catch her or even touch her, let alone remove the rope.  When we arrived to pick her up, she was on 80-acres of open land.  It took about two and one-half hours to earn her trust and place a halter on her, and finally remove the rope. She was fearful and reactive, and acted as if she’d been mishandled.
She also seemed terrified to come out of the thickets.
Of course, poison oak was everywhere.
While at AAE, Shelby learned to trust and appreciate human interaction. Underneath the fear was a very sweet, sensitive and social mare.  Eventually, she sought attention and enjoyed grooming. However, if she felt too much pressure, she was defensive/protective.  No previous handling/training history was available.
Shelby spent her last months with AAE with a foster.  Throughout her stay with AAE, she gained a lot of confidence with new situations.  She learned to look to her person for assurance, and she was willing to trust and follow her handler. Her moments of anxiety became fewer and further between. She was not a spooky horse, but had a busy mind, so the key was to get and keep her focus without her feeling too much pressure.
She was always thinking and tried hard to understand what was being asked. A slow, calm approach to new things worked well, and not letting her escalate. Once she got over any initial anxiety, she was good to go.

Shelby learned her groundwork quickly, and she was saddled successfully. She was working on consistent forward movement with a plan to graduate to ground driving when her person came along.

What Short Ears You Have!!

The following is from Save Your Ass Long Ear Rescue:

December 21, 2018

Generosity of spirit in the Season of Giving

I learned pretty early on in this rescue game there are certain words to avoid at all costs… Always and Never… as soon as the words “this donkey has never” come out of my mouth the donkey makes a liar out of me!  Another phrase that has become indelibly marked in my brain is to “expect the unexpected.”  This phrase came to mind about two weeks ago when a midnight call from the state police awakened Jeff and me.  There was a stray horse in the yard of a woman in town! She took the horse into her barn for safe keeping and called the state police who called the rescue asking for our help.

Of course I said we would take this animal in.  A few minutes later I get a call from the trooper asking if we have a truck and trailer to get the horse here!  We do, but I am not mobile due to having a broken leg and messed up ankle and wearing a cast.  I called one of our amazing volunteers shortly after midnight.  He said he would be over ASAP and would go with Jeff to pick up the horse.

Fortunately the horse was very agreeable to walking right on to the trailer with only a lead rope around his neck. He was too weak to protest!! This poor horse was a walking skeleton. He has rain rot all over his body, an abscess on his face and hooves so long that they are affecting his posture. Due to our willingness to take him in we were now legally bound to hold on to him until his owner goes to court to face cruelty charges!

He has been seen by the State Veterinarian, who gave him a body condition score of 1.08. One being emaciated.  Due to the legality of things we were unable to have our vet treat him other than doing what would keep him comfortable until we got the go ahead.

I know that Save Your Ass Long Ear Rescue is for donkeys and mules in need, but there is no way I could say no to a short ear in need, especially at this time of year when generosity of spirit is in the forefront. I do realize that by taking this animal in and getting it started on a good nutrition program and having his medical issues addressed I have added more of a burden to the rescue’s financial status. Expect the unexpected.

We so appreciate the kindness and generosity of our loyal supporters and hope the fact that this animal is not a donkey or a mule does not upset anyone.

This is the second time in the history of the rescue that we have taken in a horse.

 

ChEARS,

Ann

P.S. — We were happily surprised yesterday to have the soon to be new state vet, his assistant, another wonderful state trooper, and a representative from a well-known horse rescue in the state come to pick up the little horse yesterday.  We wish you well Sweet Sisu!

It’s AAE story-time!  Horses of 2018: 

Zena

Zena doesn’t have a long story, but it’s a common story.  Zena is about a 23 year old Percheron mare.  Her former owner came to us for help when she was no longer able to provide for her.  It’s a story we hear all to often.  We can’t say it enough; before you take on horse ownership, be sure you have done solid research on the cost of feed, the costs for maintenance care needs (e.g. hoof care, dental care, vaccines, deworming, etc.), appropriate housing, veterinary needs, costs for tack and equipment, transportation, emergency care costs, end of life costs, etc.
We get far more requests for help than we are able to take on.
Taking on ownership of a horse should be a lifetime commitment.
Zena is a big, beautiful and lovable beast!  She loves (did I say LOVES) attention, grooming, really any human interaction.  Look what happens when you scratch her belly.
She is another amazing gentle giant….well, except when there is food involved.  If she sees food, she turns into a Tyrannosaurus Rex.  Imagine food instead of belly scratches.  Anyone see the resemblance?  I bet most of our volunteers will agree.  They might even consider themselves the food.
All joking aside, we love this big girl, and so did Kasey.  She was a perfect buddy for Kasey after losing Angus, and we had great hopes for a happily ever after story!
We had a bit of fun arranging a little wedding day or these two.
Sadly, it wasn’t long lasting.  Kasey’s story will follow soon.  Regardless, Zena is a big beautiful girl living out her golden years as a resident at AAE.

It’s AAE story-time!  Horses of 2018: 

Kiwi

Kiwi was about a two year old filly relinquished to AAE by her owner in August 2016 after she lost interest, and her boarder asked for help. Kiwi was thin when she arrived at AAE, and her hooves were much overgrown and upright. She was somewhat curious, and lacked confidence around humans.
Little was known about Kiwi, but we were told she was a mustang from an Indian reservation.  She was reactive, untrusting and had a tenancy to bolt when pressured too much and when exposed to new scary things (like mini horses).
She needed frequent trims, and ultimately, she did quite well. She lived in pasture with the rest of the herd on rolling hills, and she ran and moved without limitation. She was very active with the other youngsters in the herd, and she was quite the bossy mare.
In time, Kiwi made good progress all around.  As she learned her basic ground skills, and yielding to pressure,  she grew some confidence and overcame her fears.  She loved water and the hose.  Eventually, she was introduced to a saddle and bridle and accepted very well.  Kiwi developed into a confident, personable, and fun girl who was ready to be adopted, and finally, she was!   Kiwi’s stay was a long one, but she found her forever person who continued her saddle work, and now she’s a riding horse.

911 – EMERGENCY PHONE CALLS – DEADLINE – THURSDAY NIGHT AT 8! 16 BABIES AT FALLON FEED LOT – WE NEED FUNDS NOW!!!

, , , , 0

The following is from Chilly Pepper – Miracle Mustang:

IT NEVER ENDS! PLEASE HELP SAVE THESE BABIES……..

There are 16 babies at the Fallon Feed Lot who ship THIS Thursday if they are not rescued prior to 8 pm. We are so over full, but how do we watch them ship to their death?

We need funds to purchase them, and I do not know how much that will cost at this point, but we HAVE TO HAVE FUNDS TO FEED AND CARE FOR THEM if we are going to go get any or all of them. It is not just about “saving them”, it is about being able to properly care for them and feed them. At this point it is a very difficult decision. However, the phone has not stopped, my message box is over flowing and this is in our own back yard.

So it is up to our Chilly Pepper Family if we can save any or all of them. As always, we will step up to save as many as we can, based on our ability to actually rescue and care for them. IF, by some miracle, they are all safe at the time of the deadline, we would rescue others.

As usual, we are having a crisis in the middle of a crisis. Matt is standing by for the paperwork to bring the mini’s home.

So please help us save these babies and give them a very Merry Christmas!

THE MINI’S ARE ALMOST HERE! Cuteness overload below!!

It’s AAE story-time!  Horses of 2018: 

Waylon

AAE welcomed Waylon, one of three young geldings, from the DreamCatcher Wild Horse and Burro Sanctuary in June 2017 to support DreamCatcher’s recovery and herd reduction efforts after the long illness and passing of their Executive Director, Barbara Clarke in November of 2016.  Waylon was introduced to humans in May 2017 when the boys were separated from the herd and castrated.
Waylon is a 2015-ish captive born mustang gelding.  He had minimal handling, but accepted humans quite readily.  He was a calm, confident, and social guy that quickly took to grooming and hanging with two leggers.  He was sweet, calm, confident, and willing.  He could also be a little pushy at times.

Waylon was adopted in October 2017, then returned to AAE in May 2018 after being diagnosed with EPM.  Waylon was treated with a three month course of Marquis, and he responded very well.

In October, he was re-evaluated by our vet, and he had no signs of neurologic deficits.  Waylon is a super nice, big guy, and he is looking for his forever home.  He is a big, playful, people-loving boy.  He is curious, willing, and very active.  Due to his EPM history, he was cleared for casual/light riding.  He is not considered a prospect for competition, endurance, or hard/heavy riding.

Waylon is about 15.1hh and still growing.  He is current with vaccines, deworming, and hoof and dental care, and he has a microchip in place.

The following is from Save Your Ass Long Ear Rescue:

December 14, 2018

Love is all you need…

I “came of age” in the sixties; a wonderful time for all kinds of music. I am still very into music and often think of songs relating to my work. The Beatle’s classic All You Need Is Love came to mind this morning. If only that were so!

All of us committed to the animals here love them unconditionally and get that back in spades. Unfortunately love will not buy hay. Love will not pay vet bills. Love will not pay the plumber when the hydrant seizes up. We have more than enough love to go around, but not enough money.

I realize that the “we need more money” song gets really old, but it is a sad fact of running a nonprofit animal rescue. I came into this work very naïve in regards to what it really entailed. I love all animals; have since I was knee high to a grasshopper. I have fond memories from when I could not have been more than seven or so, helping my dad raise orphan squirrels. Our family had a membership to the Bronx Zoo where I could not be taken often enough. I learned a lot about many different animal species and their needs at the “backstage” visits, a perk of being a member. I learned enough to know at a young age I would someday be involved working with animals.

Fast forward to now. I am so lucky! I still love all animals and enjoy most people as well. The rescue allows me to engage with both on a daily basis. I have amazing helpers who work very hard to keep the farm looking ship shape and the animals well cared for. I am very grateful for what I do have and really dislike having to ask for more. The part I didn’t factor in at the beginning was that asking for help would become part of my job.

Please know that every penny donated is very gratefully appreciated. All of it goes toward the care of the animals and upkeep of the farm. We have one full time paid employee. Everyone else who is here on a regular basis, including myself, are not paid. We are volunteers.

 

I thank you in advance for any help you may be able to provide.

 

ChEARS,

Ann

It’s AAE story-time!  Horses of 2018: 

Rio

This youngster came to AAE with a group of youngsters in June of 2016.  Rio was a about nine months old.  He had minimal handling and was pretty much terrified of humans.  He took considerable time to get comfortable with a halter, and he was one those we say every introduction seemed like 50 first dates.  It was just as scary the 50th time as it was the first, no matter every time was uneventful.  Every introduction to something new was the same reaction, no matter how consistent we tried to be, and even if we changed things up altering our approach.
Rio needed a very experienced person to help him conquer his fears, and someone with the patience of a saint.  Rio was a friendly and inquisitive toddler. He was very athletic and a nice mover. He could excel in any discipline, and he could be a wonderful all around mount, if only he could conquer his fears. In time (lots of time), Rio learned all the young horse basics. He was halterable in pasture, he could be led, lunged, and learned to tie. He picked up his feet, and he was good with a calm and patient farrier.  He loved water, enjoyed other horses, and really tried hard to please.  If only he had courage.
He needed lots of positive exposure and lots of positive experiences to develop confidence. He was respectful of people and for the most part stays out of his handlers space even when spooked (which was quite often).
Rio needed a confident leader that could support him and help him through learning new things.
In May of this year, Rio found just what he needed!!
A forever home with the perfect family!

One Last Mom & Foal

It’s AAE story-time!  Horses of 2018: 

Tae and Maddie

AAE welcomed Tae and her days old filly, Maddie, from the DreamCatcher Wild Horse and Burro Sanctuary in May of 2018 in continued support their herd reduction efforts.  Tae’s maternal instincts had not kicked in.  She was not allowing Maddie to nurse, though Maddie figured out if she nursed from behind Tae, mom wouldn’t resist.  Tae would bite her when she attempted to nurse from the side.
These two needed some help.
Tae had minimal handling, so it was difficult to offer much assistance to Maddie, and it was difficult to watch.  We tried using panels to hold mom, but the biting continued.  Ultimately, Mom and Baby were separated for a couple hours.  Thankfully, when reintroduced, Tae was much more accepting and willing to let Maddie nurse.  Maternal instincts kicked in!

Tae and Maddie along with the other moms and foals were given several months to settle in, live in the presence of humans and other domesticated horses, and simply be horses.  Tae is a sweet and fairly mild-mannered mustang mare all of about three years old. She took some time to accept human touch, but once she did, she accepted a halter fairly easily.  Tae has been haltered and handled some, and she is willing and tries to understand.  She needs more time socializing, and she is learning to trust.  She is a smart girl with a lot of try.  She’s still a work in progress.

Tae is current with hoof and dental care, vaccines, and deworming.
Maddie was only days old when she arrived.  Maddie was persistent and clever!  Her new tactic continued, even after she won Mom’s heart.
  

Maddie is kind, curious and confident.  She has been introduced to a halter and lead, and did well from the start.  This lil’ gal will make for an amazing partner and a super horse.

Maddie is current with vaccines, deworming, and hoof care. Maddie has an adoption Pending
