November brings a little extra focus on gratitude, and we're certainly thankful for the horses who remind us why this work matters. Each one has a story, a personality, and something special to offer.

This month, we're shining the spotlight on R***r, an adoptable horse who's ready to meet the person who might just be his perfect match.

Meet R***r!

R***r and his pal Wyatt were part of a group of about a dozen horses seized and taken into the care of a nearby law enforcement agency. Over time, all but these two stallions found adoptive homes, leaving R***r and Wyatt waiting for quite a while for there turn to go home.

The duo came to AAE in March to get a fresh start. Each had successfully undergone gelding surgery the day we picked up at the shelter. Wyatt found his forever home this past summer, but R***r is still hoping for a home.

R***r is waiting for his person. He's an older gelding that didn't have much training when we met him. At least, he didn't act like a well trained guy. At some point earlier in life, he lost an eye, but he's very well adapted to his uni-vision. R***r has come a long ways from his shelter days. He's calm, easy-going, and a really pleasant ol' guy to spend time with. Despite his eye and age, he gets along well. He tends to rest

his left hind while standing, so we looked a little deeper. After radiographs and an exam, it turns out, R***r has an old patellar fracture in his left hind. It sounds scary, but he moves comfortably and without obvious issues. R***r is personable, he enjoys attention, he's relatively easy to handle, and he's good with the farrier.

Because he's such a kind guy, we've introduced him to a saddle and done a little easy saddle work with him. He's done exceptionally well! Due to his age and old injury, he's not going to be a trail horse, per se, but it's looking like he might make a nice little lead-line horse, or one a small human could hop on to mosey up to the mail box and back. He seems to tolerate very light riding well. If you're looking for an occasional ride around the yard, R***r might be your guy.

R***r is current with dental and hoof care, vaccines, and deworming, and he has a microchip. This handsome guy is looking for a family of his own where he can be spoiled in his golden years and not have a worry in the world. He's been living in a gelding pasture, and he gets along with most of the boys, but he tends to be the leader of the band. He keeps one or two of the geldings from joining the group.

If you sound like a good match for R***r, we’d love to hear from you! You can fill out our Adoption Inquiry form to get started:

Even if you can’t adopt, you can still help! Please share R***r's story with someone who might be willing and able to open their heart and home to him!

UPDATE:
AVA AND ALEJANDRO

We introduced this special duo to you last month. Now, we’re ready to share an update, but first, let’s do a quick recap...

Ava and Alejandro were abandoned on a property and left to fend for themselves. Eventually, they found their way off the property and were picked up by law enforcement. Their person didn't come forward to claim them, and they had no place to go.

Ava is a big, older mare, who despite being thin and a bit banged up, is sweet as can be. Her companion, Alejandro, is a gelding in his mid-teens. He came in in relatively good condition, but was a bit wary of people. He's warming up.

Today, they are making progress. Ava has gained some weight, her wounds are healing, and she's enjoying a pelleted diet that's helping improve her weight. Alejandro is learning that halters and flymasks are a horse's good friends. He's kind, handsome, and learning to navigate the world better among humans.

Ava's hooves were trimmed, and we're working on Alejandro's hoof handling to make sure his next trim is easier for him and farrier, alike. He isn't as confident with hoof handling, but we're getting closer. These two are coming along slowly but surely, and we're hoping they'll be ready for adoption before year's end.

Every little bit of progress is a step toward a brighter future for Ava and Alejandro. If you’d like to help support their continued care as they heal and prepare for their next chapter, we would be incredibly grateful. Donations of any size make a difference and help us care for horses like these two.

October brought a little bit of everything to AAE, including a new face joining the herd.

We’d like to introduce you to our newest arrival…

MEET MACKEY!

Mackey is a 15+ year-old stallion who came to AAE through a nearby law enforcement agency after he was found wandering along a railroad, severely underweight and depleted. He was picked up as a stray, but sadly, his person didn't come forward to claim him.

Mackey is severely emaciated, and his road to recovery will take time, patience, and plenty of care. For now, our priority is helping him regain strength and safely put on weight.

We’re following a careful refeeding program consistent with UC Davis guidelines for malnourished horses. Once Mackey is in better physical condition and feeling stronger, we can begin addressing his other needs, including dental and hoof care, vaccinations, deworming, a microchip, and eventually, castration. Given his current condition, we want to allow his body time to stabilize before considering sedation.

Despite everything he’s been through, Mackey has already shown us what a gentleman he can be. He haltered, led, and loaded willingly when we picked him up. He traveled well and unloaded like a champ. He has a very mild-mannered disposition, and we’re hopeful that sweet nature will shine even brighter as he regains his health and strength.

Now, Mackey needs us in his corner.

Will you help us give Mackey the care and time he needs to recover?

Every donation, no matter the amount, helps provide the nutrition, veterinary care, and support he needs to get back on his feet.

Please donate today and be part of Mackey’s journey to recovery;

Our Sponsors Are the Real Treat!

It’s spooky to think about where we’d be without the support of our amazing sponsors and donors! Thankfully, we have a whole community of supporters in our corner.

This October, we’re highlighting one of our horse sponsors who help to keep the work going. Their support is a real treat for AAE and the horses who depend on us!

Thank you to them (and you!) for being part of the herd!
