Shooter's Story
Shooter came to AAE in June 2020 from a distressed sanctuary situation. He was a bit evasive and untrusting; however, with a slow approach, he was haltered and loaded easily. Shooter has a mass in his left throat latch area that has apparently been present since Fall 2019. A field exam of the mass was inconclusive. He has an appointment with the surgeon at LBEMC mid-month for further evaluation. We were told he was started under saddle years ago, but never finished.
Once haltered, Shooter seems to enjoy grooming, accepts fly spray slowly, and all four hooves can be handled and cleaned; however, he's a bit stompy and impatient. He's a has a bit of opinion and wrinkles his nose, often,,,snarly dude, but he's respectful, and relatively easy to handle, His hoof handling and patience need some work.
Shooter will be available for adoption after updating vaccines, and hoof and dental care (this week), and further evaluation of the mass.
