Chesney's Story

Chesney came to AAE in November 2020 in a group of five mustangs from a distressed mustang sanctuary situation due to a family health crisis.  After 20 years of serving mustangs, the sanctuary was unable to adequately meet the needs of the horses.  For the most part, each mustang lived in confinement in small paddocks. Chesney was timid and untrusting, but offered a ton of try.  With a slow approach and patience, she was haltered and loaded willingly.  Chesney had long hooves, and she was a bit thin. She appeared to have very little handling. We were told she was very selective with who she welcomed into her space. 

Chesney has been a champ.  She is kind, she's brave, and she tries really hard to understand.  She's gained a lot of confidence, is getting easier to halter, and she meets you in her paddock or the pasture.  She's been good with handling front hooves, but she is still nervous with hinds.  She's still sensitive and a bit reactive to quick movements and her surroundings. That being said, Chesney has a sweet curiosity and willingness that is beginning to welcome humans. She's mild mannered and wants to do right. Chesney is a very sweet lil mare! 

Chesney is available for adoption to a mustang-experienced home where her person will take their time developing a relationship and building her confidence before asking too much of her.

Chesney is current with hoof and dental care, vaccines, and deworming, and she has a microchip in place.


In general, there is a lot of activity around AAE including foot traffic in and out of paddock/pasture areas, mucking with wheelbarrows, grooming and care activities, weekly farrier visits.  There are resident dogs, cats, chickens, and mini horses, as well as various wildlife including frequent turkeys and squirrels in and around paddock/pasture areas.  AAE is situated on the corner of a busy road with high speed vehicles, trucks, and sirens.  Tractors are used in and around pasture/paddock areas, trucks deliver feed, and a squeeze is occasionally used for unloading hay.  Neighbors have weekly gardeners that utilize various power tools, and children that are active in yards adjacent to some stall/paddock areas.  Horses at AAE are accustomed to a more active environment as opposed to a quiet/sterile environment. ​
