Paisley and ShaniaPaisley and Shania got to go home together with their new mom, Sheila. Paisley came to AAE in September 2014. At about two months old, she was one of the youngest of a group of five from Oregon that were part of an ongoing placement effort by the Warm Springs Horse Network.

KewpieKewpie is a cute and friendly pony mare who was rescued as a yearling from a NV feedlot (by another rescue), and she was taken in by AAE in Fall 2012 as the other rescue was winding down operations. Kewpie is very smart and respectful under halter, but was sensitive and flighty. Kewpie recently spent some time at the Monty Roberts International Learning Center where she received several weeks of handling, desensitizing, and socializing. While at the MRILC, Kewpie was started under saddle, and she has made great progress. She enjoys attention and grooming and has a willing attitude. She will make a fun project, and really needs her own person! She is not suitable as a child’s horse at this time.

AzizAziz is a handsome and sweet, gentle, ol’ soul. His registered name is Polanie Topshelf, but he is called Aziz, which means powerful, respected, beloved in Arabic. Very fitting for this guy. He came to AAE on July 12, 2014 after private relinquishment. Aziz is said to have been ridden years ago, but it appears he would need considerable refreshing/retraining. He is youthful, has beautiful movement, and would love to share his golden years with someone that will give him regular attention. He tends to bond strongly with a pasturemate and gets very anxious when separated, so will need someone with good familiarity working with separation anxiety.

McGrawMcGraw, born around April 2014 (est.) came to AAE as a result of an animal control seizure. This was a horrific case of neglect/abuse. His mom (Tilly) and herdmates were starved; fortunately, mama provide him with some milk to sustain him, but the little milk she was producing was draining her large frame. Like his mom, he was thin and bony, a pathetic representation of what should have been a healthy, robust young colt. Still, he had the curiosity and cuteness of a baby chimp. He had not been handled much, if at all, but humans brought food, so he quickly knew they were not all bad.

JazzminJazzmin was part of a collaborative rescue effort in Fallon, NV that saved more than 30 horses from purchase by a slaughter buyer. She is beautiful with a heart of gold. She is a willing young mare, full of spunk. Jazzmin recently spent some time at the Monty Roberts International Learning Center where she received several weeks of handling, desensitizing, and socializing. While at the MRILC, Jazzmin was also started under saddle, and she has made great progress.

SkyeSkye is a beautiful mare that came to All About Equine from a former Arabian breeding ranch after the last member of the family passed away. She lived in a large pasture with three other mares. She was social, but timid. She 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 started under saddle (light work, no rider). Skye will require an experienced handler with training experience.
|
DylanDylan, a Bay/QH, was born at AAE on April 8, 2014, shortly after his mom, Roxie arrived. Roxie was part of a collaborative auction rescue effort in Fallon, NV that saved 31 horses from purchase by a slaughter buyer. Roxie came to AAE in mid February 2014.
|
FaithFaith came to AAE as a result of an animal control seizure. This was a horrific case of neglect/abuse. Faith and her herdmates were starved. Faith stood by her mom’s side until help came, then she had to say good bye. She was barely a month old, and such a cute little gal with a zest for life. We all had to have “faith” that the system would work against the heartless people that left mom to die.

KonaKona is one of the 2011 November Rescue Miracle mares (mare #15) by Stinkin' Rose Ranch. Kona was unhandled when she came to AAE in late March 2012. Kona has a quiet, gentle demeanor and a curious eye. She is halterable and leads willingly once in hand, but is standoff-ish and haltering is a process. She is sweet and should come around quickly with consistent attention and handling. She will make a nice project horse for someone wanting to train their own mount and develop that special lifetime relationship that comes from the love and gratitude of a rescued horse.

Chichi and Sugar JoSugar Jo
Sugar Jo, a quiet, Bay QHx mare who loves attention and has a gentle disposition. Sugar had 30 days under saddle as a 3 year old, but has been out in pasture since. She is a very nice mare with a kind eye, and she is very smart and willing. Sugar was a PMU mare but never stood on the line. She now lives with her new owners. Chichi
Chichi, a Bay Tomiano/AQ, is a wonderful herd mom. Youngsters love to go out to pasture with her, and she teaches them their manners which makes them wonderful to work with. Chichi was a PMU mare and probably abused in the past, so needs quiet handling, patience, and lots of reassurance. She is not aggressive, only fearful. This is a very nice looking bay tobiano mare with a lovely face and lots of flash. Chichi, together with Sugar Jo, now lives with her new owner. |
FallonCongratulations to Kellie! Kellie is the proud new owner of Fallon. Fallon is a feedlot rescue that came to AAE in 2009 with her mom, Zuni. She was adopted once before in early 2010, but was returned only becuase of unfortunate circumstances of her owners at the time and not for any fault of her own. She is a beautiful, seal bay, Appaloosa cross with a good understanding of basic groundwork and ready to be started under saddle. We are pleased to see that she has found her forever home under the care of Kellie with whom she will continue her journey of development and training.

Love
AAE took in this poor, ol' mare late on January 24, 2014 after she had been abandoned by her owner. She and her companion, Magic, were found by a family member after they had been abandoned by other family members. The family member (prior owner) reached out to AAE for assistance because they were unable to provide support for two horses (out of money and out of feed), especially in the condition they were in. Family said she was very thin, but she had gained weight in the two weeks they had been feeding her since they found her. Love was adopted July 16, 2014 and is now living happily with her forever family!

Valentine (Val)Val is a curious and social 2006 pony mare with lovely baroque conformation. She is very cute, friendly, and spunky. Val understands the basics of groundwork, and she loves to play. She's about 13.2hh, so will make a nice mount for a child or small adult. Val was rescued from a feedlot as a yearling, and she spent time at another rescue until she came to AAE late in 2012.
|
SadieSince Sadie's arrival, it was established that she had great potential as a trail horse and should continue to revisit groundwork and establish that strong foundation. She proved to be a quiet, mellow mare, and soon Sadie captured the attention of Jessica and Bryan, her new owners.
|
PetiePetie, a cute pinto miniature pony, came to AAE when his elderly owner could no longer keep him. He was gelded shortly after intake. He is quite the looker with one blue eye and one brown. Petie has a spirited personality and is very full of himself.

Sedona
AAE took in this pretty all-black Paso Fino mare and two other small horses in early November 2012 from a county animal control department that needed to place some of the animals in its care. Due to the circumstances, little was known about their backgrounds. However, that didn't stop one of our volunteers from falling in love with Sedona at first sight. Originally sent to Chrissy's care as a foster, sweet Sedona quickly captured Chrissy's heart and was officially adopted only a couple of weeks later.

Calypso (Callie)
![]() AAE took in this pretty Paso Fino (or PFx) mare in early November 2012 from a nearby county animal control department that needed to place some of the animals in its care. Due to the circumstances, little is known about her. Callie is very sweet, but a bit timid/shy; however, she enjoys attention and grooming when not approached with a halter/lead. She is black with two socks on her front legs. She's respectful under halter, but avoids being caught. She's a quick learner, maybe having some training as a youngster, with no follow up. She stands about 13hh. She is UTD with vaccines, deworming and dental and hoof care. Click HERE to see her YouTube video. |
Penny![]() Penny is a sweet, sociable mare that came to AAE as a result of her owner's financial distress. She's relatively easy to handle, gentle and quiet. She leads, ties, trailers, lunges, and has been ridden. Penny appears to be a good prospect for a nice riding partner but seems a bit rusty and could use a tune-up. |
Lacy
![]() This little lady is a true pony! She and her month old colt (Sparky) came to AAE in July 2009. It didn't take long for them to weasel their way into our hearts. Lacy is a 2006 (est) mare that was obtained from a Reno auction by a backyard pony breeder. She gave birth to a precious little buckskin colt, Sparky, about a month before coming to AAE. She has become a super sweet little mare, but has her “pony” moments. She can be standoffish until she gets to know you, but very sweet once she is comfortable. Lacy is UTD with vaccines, deworming, and hoof care. She was planned for our youth programs, but due to her tenancy to be a very easy keeper, and gain considerable weight, we are unable to keep her with general population. Lacy is ready for a job and someone who can further her training as a kid's pony or a cart horse. Come meet her today!

Maggie
![]() Maggie, a 2005 (est) grade mare, is a wonderfully curious mare with a mild, eager-to-please temperament. She was started under saddle, and she has doing very well. Maggie learned to walk, trot, halt, and back after only a few rides. She has an energetic trot. With her beautiful gait and nice conformation, Maggie should fit nicely into the English show ring, especially in equitation or flat events. She's a gentle, friendly, willing mare looking for a family of her own. She is ready for a confident, intermediate to advanced rider who will continue her training to develop her full potential. Maggie was rescued from a feedlot and is apparently a TB-cross; however, many that have met her believe she has draft and/or morgan breeding. She is a dominant mare in our herd and may not be best suited as a pasture mate to another dominant mare.

Buttercup
![]() Buttercup is a very sweet little mini that came to AAE in 2013 after unfortunate family circumstances. She has a very kind personality, enjoys people and loves her grooming! She done well with our new volunteers and youth programs. Buttercup is up to date with vaccines, worming, hoof and dental care. Her tear ducts were also flushed recently.

Hutchinson ("Hutch")
![]() Hutch’s mother, Kansas, arrived at AAE in March 2012, after being rescued from a Nevada feedlot as part of the November Rescue Miracle by Stinkin' Rose Ranch. Kansas was very pregnant, and Hutch was born April 2, 2012! He is a healthy, happy, and friendly guy, who is curious about both his environment and people. He has a beautiful chocolate brown coat highlighted by a coarse and wavy, blonde mane. He is gelded and has been started with basic groundwork. He is going to be a big boy. See more photos in his Facebook album. Congratulations Hutch and Brooke!!!
|
Texas Jack![]() AAE took in this handsome palomino in November 2012 from a nearby county animal control department that needed to place some of the animals in its care. Due to the circumstances, little is known about him, although a recent dental on Tex indicated he is about 16 years old. He has good ground manners and has carried a rider, but he seemed a bit rusty, or he may not have had significant training. Texas Jack is dominant/protective in the herd and will chase or challenge new herd members; therefore, he is likely unsuitable as a companion or pasture mate to a senior or compromised horse. He will need an advanced rider to continue his progress.
|
Zia
![]() Zia is an adorable little appaloosa pony. Her mother, Zuni, was a feedlot rescue from June 2009. Zuni came in with a young filly, Fallon, and we later discovered Zuni was also in foal with Zia. At three years, Zia is a petite girl with a big personality. She is the perfect size for a small kid's mount but will need an experienced handler, as she has a bit of pony-tude. Zia is being fostered for the summer by the same family who adopted her dam, Zuni, and they are teaching her ground manners and planning to start her under saddle. She has a super sweet personality, loves people and is waiting to be adopted by a loving forever family! See more photos here or visit her Facebook album.

MossMoss is a beautiful and well built 2001 chestnut gelding who stands around 15.2 hands. He is a sweet and gentle boy who loves attention. AAE acquired Moss after he was left out to pasture and experienced a few years of limited to no riding. We did not know how he would do under saddle; happily, our evaluation showed he was a well-trained riding horse. That fact, as well as his good looks and sweet personality, soon got him noticed by a nice family from Elk Grove. In short order, he was adopted by the Hensleys, who took him to a lovely forever home in late 2011.

GemGem was an adorable feedlot colt that arrived at AAE with his mom, Ruby, in May 2011. Gem was only weeks old and had somehow battled through the feedlot herd unscathed. Both Gem and Ruby initially were underweight and fearful of humans, but due to Gem's natural curiosity and cute personality, he soon overcame his fear and began demanding the attention of the volunteers. In November 2011, his special day came. He met his new mom, Sierra, and it wasn't long before his cute little tail went down the road in the trailer to his forever home.
