We are thrilled to announce that our Lola, L-O-L-A, Lola recently went to her forever! We’re so excited for what the future holds for her!
Lola came to AAE with her friend, Liza, at the beginning of the year in collaboration with another rescue organization. The pair had been with a foster who didn’t have adequate facilities for gentling mustangs. These girls were unhandled/unhalterable, and, as a result, they hadn’t had any dental or hoof care, vaccines, or deworming.
During our time with us, Lola made great progress. She became halterable, and she was willing to learn. She furthered her education as a participant in the Monty Roberts International Learning Center’s 15-day Advance Course of Horsemanship in the spring.
It wasn’t long before Lola met her perfect match in Mel! Mel is a previous AAE adopter, and we are grateful she opened her heart and home to another beautiful sweetheart. We can’t wait to hear more about Lola and Mel’s adventures!

URGENT 911!! A family of Six? NEVADA Mustangs need you Now! They are headed straight into the slaughter pipeline unless we save them.
I was told these mustangs came from the same area that WARRIOR did. This could be his DAD or BROTHER?
The photo above shows how they comfort each other as they wait for an unknown future. I was told they are extremely reactive and need a safe place with someone who knows what they need.
It is a rare opportunity to get them before they end up in the Kill pen.There is a stallion, 2 mares that are “covered”, and a yearling colt.
So in all reality, you are saving SIX lives!
Look at these beautiful faces. This is THEIR 911!! Please help me save them.
These are NV mustangs, and are set to ship to slaughter.
We need $3500 for bail and transport. We need an additional $4000 plus for the vet bills, hay and feed for the next few months. Our current “special needs” kids also need more grain and special feed. We actually FEED and provide Medical Care for the horses we rescue.
So many rescues are shutting down, or heading that way. It takes all my faith to say yes to taking on more horses we most likely will have to feed this winter. Please make this another successful rescue!
You, my Chilly Pepper Family, have been saving lives for well over Sixteen years!
THANK YOU, MY CHILLY PEPPER FAMILY, FOR ALWAYS BEING THERE! YOU ROCK!!!

Adoptions are always some of the best news, ever! Last week mom & filly pair, Mollie & Mila, went to their forever home, together!! They are the first of the law enforcement horses to graduate to their new homes – this is a big first step in finding new families for all of these sweet creatures fur babies.
Look at their amazing transformations from when we first met them (below) until they arrived at their new home. It’s hard to believe these two were with us less than four months.
Thank you to Alison & Tom for adding these lovely ladies to their family! And thanks to all of you that supported their rescue and helped them get to their happily ever after.
We are so happy they found their home, and we can’t wait to match the other horses with the right home!
View the adoptable horses to see if you’re a fit for anyone! And refer a friend, share the info, repost! Together, we can make it happen!
THANK YOU for saving their lives.A special thanks to the folks who stepped up to offer matching funds.
The “matching funds” was a success, and that is what allowed us to not only get the pregnant mares and the Jennies, but to save “Jeepers”, the horse with the eye injury.
Jeepers was tortured, his face set on fire and Doc said he needs surgery on his eye, or what is left of it. We are not sure if that was from part of the torture, or if it might be cancer.
The Cremello mare has a horribly infected leg, close to her joint. Doc said it is serious enough that even though she is very pregnant, she won’t survive without getting the infection under control.
There is a chance the antibiotics could cause a miscarriage, but if Mama dies from the infection, the baby won’t live either. She is being treated with clay and antibiotics. Please say a prayer for her.
It is so hard to see these injuries, but sadly they seem to be part of most of the rescues.
Appreciate prayers for the rescue truck. She was towed in to the shop yesterday. It sounds like it could be extremely serious, AND EXPENSIVE. as it is something in the electrical system. Without her, I am stuck. Again, it happened in the driveway, not on a haul with horses and out in the middle of nowhere. God was watching over me as always. I am grateful for that, and praying for an affordable fix.
Jeepers has a perfect home offer, once he is healthy and has the veterinary care he needs. A 7 year old who has already fallen in love with him. He finally hit the jackpot. After years of suffering and torture, this horse will be starting his “best life”.
Thank you for making that happen. Getting the matching funds made the difference for this wonderful horse.

We have two amazing donors who have offered to match funds up to $2600, to save these kids.
Beginning now, at 5:30 pm. All donations will be put towards the goal for the matching $2600. For every dollar you donate, these amazing folks will match it, all the way up to $2600.
Between receiving the matching funds offer and typing this, we have received $I00 towards the matching funds.
So now we are looking for $2500 more to be matched. We will be able to SAVE THESE KIDS, AND HELP another one I was called about who’s eye is hanging out???.
Thank you so much!
God is answering our prayers!
(Earlier post:)
WE NEED HELP ASAP!!
To date we have only raisesd about $!600. This won’t even cover the bail for these guys.
HOW WOULD I PICK???
IN ADDTION, I received a call from a friend in NV who is trying to save an older guy with a blown eye. I can’t begin to say yes to help, when I am not even close to raising the funds for these 6 lives.
I know that multiple rescues are really struggling. I hope this is not the future.
It’s up to y’all. We need another $3400 just to get them here and have a few weeks of feed.
Will you help us save them??
Thank you to everyone who has helped with so far.

Another phone call, and you guessed it, another Emergency. I received an urgent call for 2 Pregnant Mamas, and 2 young Jennies headed to slaughter.
So many folks ask why so many pregnant mares end up at slaughter?It IS deliberate!! The heavier they are, the more money they bring.We can’t let these 2 innocent foals be cut of Mama’s belly, and thrown away on the slaughter floor.
Sadly, I have seen photos of that, and you cannot unsee them.
I know times are tough, and honestly, it is scary trying to raise enough funds to save them, and also be able to support and care for them, until they are ready to be re-homed.
We need $6500 for these SIX lives for bail, transport, vetting, groceries and all the other expenses that come with rescue. Please let’s save them.
PLEASE help now. I ONLY want to say YES, we will save them.
Today, I am heading back to the Doc, and my hauler is standing by and ready to go get them IF we can save them!
THANK YOU TO ALL OF OUR SUPPORTERS. TOGETHER WE ARE MAKING A DIFFERENCE IN SO MANY LIVES!

The 1st Surgery went pretty well, although I am still in the hospital hoping to go home soon. Controlling the pain has been a challenge, but the new hip seems to be setting in well..
Unfortunately, I need, serious help with funding to keep hiring the help I need, pay down the vet bills, purchase feed, etc.
Great news from Golconda. Spice is starting to gain weight and is getting the proper nutrition she needs.
Rescue doesn’t stop for little things like broken legs, etc. Sadly it’s my life, so I can’t, or we wouldn’t be where we are. It just takes a bit more help and some creativity.

Our Boots & Bling event provides critical funding that allows AAE to continue operations serving horses-in-need, giving them a second chance at a better life! Auctions play a very big part in this event.
We have received some wonderful items for this year’s auction, but we are falling far short of our need. Please, please help us help horses.
If you or anyone you know can work with us to find great auction items, we would greatly appreciate the support of AAE and our animals.
We have two immediate volunteer needs for Boots & Bling:
· Individuals to submit auction requests online. The team lead will provide you with a list of company and organization’s websites and content to help complete auction request forms. No phone calls required!
· We’re adding some fun with some contests and prizes at Boots & Bling to spice up the evening and make it more interactive. We are looking for some individuals to help plan and coordinate that. This team is not auction related, but it would be a fun role!
If you are able to help with either volunteer need, please contact the Boots & Bling team.
Here are several other ways you can help with the auctions!
Donate an item, donate an experience, or volunteer your professional service (This evening is a great opportunity to highlight your business with 350+ in attendance). This event has sold out since 2017.
Contact your family and network of friends and business associates who may be willing to donate items/products, services, or experiences.
Join our Boots & Bling Auction team and help us obtain items, products, services, and experiences.
Refer someone you know to the Boots & Bling team. If you’re not comfortable asking, share your ideas with us, and we can reach out. We would be happy to ask for you.
Ideas for donations include:
Airline miles, vacation rentals, cruises, hotel accommodations, timeshares, or any version of travel.
Tickets to sports games, concerts, or other events
Experiences (sailboat rides, fishing trips, horseback rides, hot air balloon rides, golfing, ziplining, whale watching, or similar)
Theater tickets; wine tasting experiences, and the likes
Gift cards (restaurants, department stores, services, Amazon, any and all gift cards make great gifts)
Jewelry, art, or collectibles
Professional services (accountant, hairdresser, massage, photography, design, diagnostics, pet care, auto detailing, etc.)
Businesses do not need to be local. Vacation/destination items help make wonderful auction packages or baskets!
Please don’t wait, we need your help now!! It takes time to create and build packages and baskets for the auction, then get information into the auction system. The sooner we have your items, the better the auction will be.
If you are able to donate to the auction, please complete the donation form found on our website.
Apologies it’s been a while since we sent an update on the seizure horses. We’ve been working hard to get them healthy and ready for adoption, and we’re excited to let you know they are all doing tremendously well. Nearly all are now available for adoption. Unfortunately, we don’t have the best progress photos of everyone to share, so know that some of these photos don’t do justice to all. The Arabians are all really nice group of horses, and they’ve made a ton of progress since arriving. Now, it’s time to get them adopted!!
Though some were touchable and enjoyed interaction, none were halterable when they arrived. None had likely had any hoof or dental care, at least for a long time. Today, all are halterable and handleable, some more confidently than others. All understand the basics, all have had the work (hoof and dental care, vaccines, deworming and microchips). The older colt (Niko) has been gelded, the other will be done in the next month or so. Some are more confident than others, but they’ve all made good progress since they arrived the end of March and early April.
Learn more about each horse by clicking on the name or photo below.
Please read each horse’s description and needs carefully to make sure YOU are a good match for the horse (or to help find a good match)!
If you are (or someone you know is) interested in exploring adoption, please learn more about our adoption process, then submit an Adoption Inquiry (This is the first step to find your match). (We’re working on updating the website, so if you see someone you’re interested in, and the description is brief, submit an Adoption Inquiry and we can share more information to see if there’s a match.)

Sweet Jennings earned his wings earlier this week after a very difficult cancer diagnosis.
Jennings had a persistent swelling in his sheath/groin area for the past few months. We hoped it was a stubborn pigeon fever abscess that hadn’t come to a head. Attempts to drain it in the field were unsuccessful, and a more extensive surgical procedure was undertaken.
Unfortunately, the swelling was a football-sized mass involving a lymph node. Biopsy results showed the tumor was a metastatic melanoma. Based on the type of cancer, the lymph node involvement, the size, and the location, there was little hope for a positive outcome for our sweet boy. The kindest thing we could do was to help Jennings across the Rainbow Bridge before cancer took its toll. F@*# Cancer!
Jennings came to AAE in 2020 with a baseball-sized mass on his sheath. He underwent surgery, and the mass was a melanoma. Fortunately, the surgery was successful, and there were clean edges around the incision site. We gave him time to heal, and after 12 months were very optimistic when he had no recurrent lesions. Thankfully, he stayed happy and healthy until this. That said, even with the swelling, he was his happy self!
Jennings loved attention; he was an absolute character. He was playful in his herd, and he always had a special gal by his side. Elli was his latest craze, and she made him a much better guy. He was aloof and much more independent (from humans) when he arrived, but the longer he was here, the sweeter he became. He loved to let you know he enjoyed your company. The pic above is one of the special Jennings moments Cindy experienced when he came up behind her, and he gave her a big, affectionate hug!
We’re incredibly grateful he knew (and gave) so much love while he was here. This special guy is going to be missed soooo much! Be free, our gentle love!
We’d like to bring Jennings home to stay at the barn with some of our other special angel herd-mates. If you can to help with his cremation costs and/or extensive treatment and hospitalization expenses, we’d sure appreciate the help.
Hi, Thank you for saving Olivia and her unborn foal. These are some of the kids currently in NV.
We have an order of hay coming on Monday, and that is roughly $1000. As you can see in the photos, all these kids love their feed, lol. That does not include the grain and special feed for some of the older, special needs kids.
Our Vet bill in Goldendale is $4345, with the babies, Coggins, emergency visits etc. It also cost about $1000 to help the two mares leave their pain and suffering. We received some help for them, but we already had an existing bill.
Our bill in NV is around $350???
I have been feeding and watering here, but had help for the cleaning etc. Sadly, I will need to hire more help to take care of the kids while I am fresh out of surgery. It’s amazing how much money I saved the rescue by working and not getting paid.
For now though, I simply need more help.
We had 2 of our wilds colic with the crazy weather. That means meds etc. Phantom Jr. is having some issues with his hoof, and that required a trip to the vet as well.
So between the vet bills for $4345 and $350, plus the hay, and the help to feed and care for the critters, I am hoping to get some help to get these paid off.
I am heading to surgery the Monday after next for a total hip replacement on my “good leg”, and then Doc is working on a plan for my broken, right leg.
it would be amazing to have less bills to worry about when I went under.
I am reaching out to see if anyone would possibly like to help me with our vet bills, hiring help, and to buy more hay.
We haven’t stopped rescuing for a minute, and we won’t, but sometimes the financial situation can be a struggle. It is NOT an emergency, but I would absolutely appreciate any help with this.
Rescue doesn’t stop for little things like broken legs, etc. Sadly it’s my life, so I can’t, or we wouldn’t be where we are. It just takes a bit more help and some creativity.

As always, there is little time to stop and grieve. Another 911 for a heavily pregnant mare who is scheduled to ship to slaughter.
I haven’t seen her, but she has run out of time.
We need to raise at least $2,000 to get her safe, transported and settled in with the basics. She will need lots of special feed for her and her unborn foal.
We still have to catch up the vet bills, but I had to had to go out on faith, so of course I said Yes, my Chilly Pepper Family, will keep her and her unborn baby off the slaughter truck.
Please help.today!
Let’s help ease the heartbreak of losing the girls, by honoring their memory by saving 2 more lives.
The Mare in the 1st pix was one you saved last year, and that is her beautiful baby by her side. Happy endings do come true.

This beautiful “Old Lady” needs us now. She is emaciated and needs help. You can look in her eyes and see how sad and broken she is.
I need to get special feed for her as she cannot seem to chew hay. She tries, but obviously it isn’t working.
She will need vet care, an equine dentist, and special feed, vitamins etc.
Pumpkin, the Cremello mare shown in the collage, was born with leg deformities. She is slightly underweight, but her biggest issue is her feet. She will need special farrier care to get her comfy again._
Sadly, Pumpkin also appears to have cancerous sarcoids.
Please help us help these horses.
Animal Control was involved, and I want to send out a HUGE THANK YOU to Yakima Animal Control. THANK YOU FOR STEPPING UP AND SAVING these horses.
The owner was unaware of the situation and called me as soon as A/C notified her of the problem.
Be careful who you trust the care of your animals too.
Hopefully with a lot of love and care we can get these two ladies feeling better.
I can’t stand the thought of them suffering and starving. Let’s help them now! THANK YOU!!

The 4 littles are safe and sound at Dustin Time Rescue in Pocatello. It broke my heart to let them go so soon, but it made sense as they are trying to schedule my next surgery.
The 3 bigger kids adoption came through, and they are also safe and sound in their new homes.
So right now I only have Dakota and Tyler up here, and I believe there are 15? in Nevada.
We need to buy $1000 load of hay in Nevada immediately. There are 15? to feed, and the horses love their groceries.
I have a very special request for help this week.
Luckily, it is a one time expenditure,
We need $2097.94 to replace the emergency funds that were used for the electrician. The nursery buildings are now wired DIRECTLY & CORRECTLY, after having 2 extension cord fires.
We have been on a waiting list and it was finally our turn. PTL!
Between the hay, vet bill, restocking of supplies and the electrical work & my extra help, we need approximately $5000+.
We can’t afford or risk not having what we need if babies/horses show up unexpectedly.
I will still need to hire extra help for a bit longer, (and that might be a bit of an understatement lol). It sure show how people coming together makes an amazing difference.
I’m heading back to Seattle for a Doc appt next Thursday. Hopefully they will be scheduling my hip replacement on my “good leg”.
I think we have SAVED roughly 19 or so new horses, since I 1st broke my Tibia.

Thank you for the breakaway halters for the littles. They arrived just in time . I also want to thank my NV peeps for securing the milk and supplies from Benson Feed for us. You are so appreciated.
A Fun Note: I was looking at worst case scenario if they actually do have to amputate my bad leg. I was figuring out a really cool pulley system, where I could make the milk and send out the buckets on a pulley. I was feeling pretty cool, until Danniell dashed my bubble and asked why not just put the hose where I make the milk and just make it at the bucket. Wow, way to dash my cool plans, but there you go. There is always a way to “git ‘er done”.
If you want to donate directly for milk, please call Basin Feed at 509-773-4648. We need to finish paying for the 5 new buckets we ordered..
