Pancho's Story

Pancho came to AAE with one other horse (Music) after law enforcement intervention. The two pals were found wandering the streets while their owner was in the hospital. They had a long history with law enforcement (years and years), and they had each endured more than any horse ever should.

Pancho is a ~20 year old pony gelding. He arrived in better condition than Music, yet still shows signs of long-term neglect. He's a tad thin, his hooves long and slippered, and no doubt, his teeth need help, too. Poor guy is fearful of humans, and he struggles terribly with trust. Regardless of his condition and fears, this adorable little man has stuck by Music’s side through it all. Pancho will need some extra efforts with his hoof rehab along with plenty of time to build trust with us two-leggers.

Stay tuned for more updates.

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, a pig, 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.​
