Lady A's Story

Lady A, an aging mare, came to AAE in June 2026 after her world was turned upside down when her owner unexpectedly passed away. Lady A was left alone and went several days without care before her situation was discovered. She was underweight, and she had an old eye injury causing pain and infection. She needed all basic care and diagnostics, too.

Since arriving at AAE, she's had dental work, radiographs of her front hooves, and bloodwork testing for Cushing's disease. The eye injury resulted in complete blindness, ands he'll need surgery to remove the eye to prevent further injury, issues due to flies, and ongoing care. Surgery will be scheduled after she has some time to stabilize after getting quality nutrition, pain meds, and a course of antibiotics.

In general, there is a lot of activity around AAE including vehicle and foot traffic in and out of paddock/pasture areas, mucking with wheelbarrows, grooming and care activities, tractor and trailering, weekly farrier visits. There are resident dogs, cats, goats, cows, and mini horses, as well as various wildlife including frequent turkeys, squirrels, rabbits, deer, coyote, and bobcats in and around paddock/pasture areas. A portion of AAE is situated along a highway 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. Horses at AAE are accustomed to a more active environment as opposed to a quiet/sterile environment. Some do well; others will do better in a more quiet environment.
