Myers's Story

Myers came to AAE in June 2023 with Maia, Portia, and Whiskey after the passing of their owner. 

We don't usually take stallions, and we weren't going to take these two until we saw them. Besides their condition, these boys were tied to stakes on about 15' ropes, and Portia and Maia had been in adjoining paddocks prior to coming to AAE. We had to set-up paddocks suitable for stallions for quarantine and housing, but we got it done. They needed help.

We were told Myers is a 12-16 year old Quarter Horse, and he was a riding horse at one time. We'll have a better idea of his age after his dental appointment next week. Once at AAE, Myers was also started on an alfalfa diet (consistent with UCD’s protocol for refeeding malnourished horses).

As stallions go, Myers is a relatively nice guy. He's been a bit of a biter, and he's not well socialized with other horses. None of the four appear to have had much integration with other horses other than being in adjoining paddocks. Myers has seen the farrier for an attempted trim, but he was only manageable with his front hooves. As soon as he stabilizes and gains a bit of weight, he will be castrated. Next week, in addition to the dental, he's scheduled for hoof care, vaccines, deworming, and a microchip. Once all is done, he'll continue under evaluation before he's available for adoption. We've got some work to do with this guy; though not as much work as Whiskey will be.


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, pigs, cows, and mini horses, as well as various wildlife including frequent turkeys, squirrels, deer, and coyotes 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.  Horses at AAE are accustomed to a more active environment as opposed to a quiet/sterile environment.​
