Oakley's Story
Oakley came to AAE in with her friend Andi after the passing of their owner. There were a number of other horses, but Oakley and Andi were the last two remaining and resources were running out when AAE assisted.
Oakley is a very friendly, in-your-pocket kind of mare. She tends to be a bit pushy, and she can be a little bossy, but she's also easily run off food. She craves attention and will follow you for hours wanting to be part of the action. Oakley has very basic ground skills, she's learning patience with the farrier, and she loaded readily (the first time) when we picked her up. She loves grooming and attention, and she's happy in a small herd. She's confident and doesn't appear to have much fear. Oakley is a very kind mare, and has a ton of potential as a very easy-going, willing to please project.
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, cows, pigs, chickens, and mini horses, as well as various wildlife including frequent turkeys, deer, coyote, 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. Horses at AAE are exposed to an active environment as opposed to a quiet/sterile environment.
