Skye's Story

Skye is a beautiful mare that came to All About Equine from a former Arabian breeding ranch in March of 2015 after the last member of the family passed away. She lived in a large, grassy pasture with three other mares.  She was social, but timid. As a result of Skye's neglect prior to coming to AAE in 2015, she experienced chronic laminitis and developed a slight tipping (ski tip) of her coffin bone.  She has not shown any signs of lameness while at AAE.  She was cleared for riding by vet, with the caveat that she might need shoes.

Skye spent several weeks at the Monty Roberts International Learning Center (MRILC) where she participated as a project horse during MRILC courses.  She was socialized, learned basic groundwork, and she was introduced to ground driving and started under saddle (light work, no rider). 

Not long after she returned to AAE, Skye was adopted (August 2015).  She returned to AAE in July 2018, after her adopter felt she wasn't getting what she needed.  Though he loved her, he felt she deserved more.  While away, Skye got a ton of groundwork, and she was ridden a handful of times in an arena.  Per prior owner, she did better with an experienced rider.  He also thought he might be too heavy for her and worried about her hooves, but she never showed any signs of lameness.

Skye has grown into a very sweet, willing, mild-mannered mare (with humans), and she loves grooming and attention.  She is mare-ish in a herd environment.  . 

Skye is up to date on vaccinations, deworming, hoof and dental care.  
Skye recently (July 2018) tested positive for insulin resistance, and she is given a daily supplement (ThryoVet) with her feed.  She is on an orchard grass only diet.
