JETTA
Jetta has many stories. With AAE, it starts back in March 2015 when we had an opening for a learning opportunity at the Monty Roberts International Learning Center due to an adoption that left us short a horse. We networked with another rescue, and Jetta came to AAE. Jetta had been part of a large neglect case, and she had not been at the other rescue too long. Shortly after arriving at AAE, we made the journey south. A week or so later, we got a bit of a shocking call. Jetta looked as if she was getting ready to deliver a foal. We made another trip south and got her back to a cushy stall. Within about two weeks, she delivered the most handsome colt! He was gorgeous!
Willie was perfect in every way! It wasn’t six months later, and Jetta and Willie were adopted together. Several months later (after weaning), we got a call asking for help picking up Jetta from a trainer. Jetta had been sent to a trainer a few months prior to start under saddle. Said trainer wasn’t responding adequately to calls and questions. Sadly, the “trainer” was anything but a trainer. We arrived, and we couldn’t believe our eyes. Poor Jetta had been starved, again, and she was worse than when she was before. “Trainer” said she was dangerous, he couldn’t catch her, she wouldn’t load in a trailer, and owners shouldn’t have such a dangerous horse. Horses*#*! The look in her eyes was empty. She was haltered, led to the trailer, and loaded, all in a few minutes. (Please, always be involved, visit your horse, and participate in training).
Back home, she was on the road to recovery, again. Flash forward, adopters divorce, house is sold, and Jetta and Willie move to a boarding facility. No idea if this was the first or the last or how many more changes were in-between, but adopter could no longer afford two horses, and Jetta recently returned to AAE. We wish Willie could have come, too. Maybe one day. Jetta is still the sweet, sweet mare we knew back in 2015. She feels empty again. Hopefully her ol’ sparkle will return to her eyes again, soon. The sadness is palpable. Ever stand by a horse and feel a knot in your throat as the tears well up in your eyes?
We’re still getting to know Jetta, again. We need more time to get to really understand where she is and what she needs. We think she’s about 18. We don’t think she ever returned to full training, though we know she had a special friend at her boarding facility that showered her with attention and continued her progress. Jetta loves attention, and she enjoys being groomed. She’s easy going, easy to halter, lead, and load. She’s fairly good with handling her hooves, but isn’t great with the farrier with her hinds, though she might have some pain issues to investigate. As the weather improves, we’ll spend more time exploring with Jetta and figure out the best path forward for her. We love this gal, and we want the best for her.
This holiday season, the horses we rescue have only one wish: a bright future. With your support, we can give them more than just shelter — we can give them hope. Join us in making their dreams come true by helping us provide the funding needed to care for and rehome these majestic creatures. Your generosity this December will help more horses find their second chance in 2025.
Your donations provide a safe, loving home for rescued horses. Your contribution will ensure that horses like Jetta find the peace and care they deserve, now and in the future. Any amount is very much appreciated, and it makes a big difference for the horses.

OLIVIA
Olivia is a 2010 Thoroughbred mare that came to AAE in October. She had some health issues that weren’t resolving, and she wasn’t getting the care she needed. Olivia seemed to be experiencing a uterine or urinary tract infection. Olivia was facing euthanasia. This sweet girl needed a chance to get well.
Earlier in her life, she was a racehorse, but her racing history wasn’t too impressive earnings-wise. She ran 22 races from 2015 to 2017, with only one win, and she won $17,540 during her career.
Olivia’s had ultrasounds, palpations, scopes, and uterine and bladder lavages, and she’s still trying to resolve her issue. Initially, it seemed this sweet mare had a chronic uterine infection. She was treated with a long course of antibiotics that seemed to resolve the issue, but only briefly before signs of infection returned. She’s had a vaginal discharge for many months, and she seemed to be incontinent, passing frequent squirts of urine (or icky mucous, pus) and not urinating normally.
Further diagnostics located a large bladder stone. Olivia had a procedure done to removed the stone; it was baseball to softball-sized and had to be broken up for removal. The photo below is just a small piece of the stone. Poor mare! After removal, she’s had a couple of follow-up lavages to help clear bladder and uterus of infection, sediment, and anything else that shouldn’t be there.
Since arrival, Olivia also had her basic health care updated: dental and hoof care, vaccines, and deworming. (She already had a microchip).
er last visit was a bit concerning. Her scope showed a dilated ureter and her bloodwork indicated her kidney values increased again, after coming down previously.
Olivia is an incredibly sweet, sweet mare. Please send some healng energies to help her recover!

CLYDE
Clyde came to AAE at the end of August from a nearby law enforcement agency. He and another horse were seized after abandonment on a large property where they were left to fend for themselves. Clyde was emaciated and in dire condition. Clyde also had a growth in his eye that was later supected cancer. He also has GI issues (inflammation/thickness in walls of small intestines) and lesions in his lungs.
The County’s vet suspected the abdominal/lung issues to be cancer, but with meds and a nourishing diet, he was fighting, and he was improving. Clyde was being treated with a twice daily steroid to control the GI inflammation, among other meds. Thankfully, Clyde’s condition stabilized, and his eye was removed.
This law enforcement agency went above and beyond to help this sweet guy. They invested in a chance for life and the hard work needed to make sure this very sick horse had a chance at survival. They truly gave him the gift of life when others would have made a much easier call.
Though he may have cancer, he needed a place to go where he could continue his recovery maybe even thrive. He just wanted some love! Clyde came to AAE expecting to be a hospice situation, but with hope he would improve. Once he arrived, he continued on his daily meds and his refeeding program. After about a month, he was due for his follow-up. Clyde was looking better and feeling better. Amazingly, his bloodwork came back all within normal limits. His ultrasound showed he still has some GI inflammation and lung lesions, but they were better than expected. Great news for Clyde! He also got much needed hoof and dental care, vaccines, and deworming, as well as a microchip.
His daily steroid was tapered down to half of what it was. He’s holding his own, he’s looking great, and he’s feeling great. Not too long ago, he made the transition to herd life, and he’s enjoying being a horse again.
Though we don’t know what the future will hold for Mr. Clyde, he’s getting lots of love, and he sure seems to be enjoying every day, one day at a time! He’s sure a big, sweet guy, and everyone loves him! He’ll have a follow-up after the new year, and we’ll see where things go from there. For now, he’s enjoying the miracle of Christmas, and he’s grateful for all of the love and care he’s getting from all of his volunteers. Clyde’s so thankful for the support from all of you that has given him a second chance to live his best life! He’s not forgotten, it all started with law enforcement! Clyde sends Merry Christmas and Happy Holiday wishes to all!

NEVAEH
Nevaeh is a grade mid- to late-teen mare that came to AAE in September through law enforcement after she was abandoned on someone’s property. She was seized as a stray, and we were asked to help. When she arrived, she was thin and needed basice care (i.e., dental and hoof care, vaccines, and deworming), and she got a microchip.
This beautiful mare is uncomplicated. She’s sweet, she enjoys attention, she’s fairly easy to handle (i.e., halter, lead, grooming, hooves, & trailering). She transitioned into a pasture herd without issue. We’ve tested br0i- 3efly with saddling, and she’s not a fan. So initial thoughts are little to no riding experience, but we’ll explore more as long as she’s here. At this point, she’ll be available as a non-riding companion simply because she doesn’t appear to know much and she’s older. If we find differently, we’ll revisit.
Nevaeh has been such a sweet girl during our stay with us. She is looking good and feeling even better! Now, her only wish is for a person and home of her own.
Nevaeh is available for adoption as a non-riding companion. She may be able to do more in the right situation, but for now, that’s the best option for her success.

MATTEO
Matteo is a handsome ~11-year old who came to AAE in Fall 2023. We were told he was a Colonial Spanish Barb horse that came from a larger herd after the passing of his owner. He was a stallion, he was not halterable/touchable, and he had very large summer sore on his face. (Summer sores are associated with the life cycles of stomach worms and transmitted by flies). Because he was so fearful and reactive to humans, no one at his prior home had been able to handle him to treat the summer sore. He had been living in about a 24′ x 24′ paddock for a year, and had no turn-out or opportunity to run.
We got to work, and after consultation with vet, we were able to improvise a bit and treat him with antibiotics, steroids, and various fly deterrents. Cooling weather and end of the fly season helped, too. It took time, but it healed. Unfortunately, it seems he’s prone to summer sores. This past summer, he ended up with two small sores that eventually resolved. Matteo is quite a challenge; he’s not really interested humans touching him, though, he’s making slow progress. Fortunately, he’s curious and he’s food motivated, and we’ll keep working to break down his walls, little by little.
Matteo was gelded earlier this year, and once healed, he was introduced individually to some of the geldings. He was recently moved to the mustang pasture (about 20 acres). For the first time in a long time, he can run with and interact with a group of other horses (geldings), and he’s enjoying it immensely. Once the weather changes in spring, he’ll come in again for a little more learning, and I’m sure we’ll learn more from him. For now, he’s a pretty happy pasture horse.

IN MEMORY
As we celebrate the joy of the season, we also want to pause to remember and honor the beloved friends we lost this year. They touched our hearts in ways words can hardly express. We will miss their presence, their personalities, and the quiet (and not-so-quiet) moments we shared with them.
Saying good-bye is never easy, especially when these animals have become a part of our lives and our family. Their hoof prints are forever etched in our hearts.
This was a really difficult year with the losses of some of our most beloved and long-time residents, and these are tough stories to share. No doubt, it’ll be hard to read for some, and you may want to pass on this one. Truth is, it’s one of the most difficult parts of rescue, when we have to say these kinds of goodbyes.
Sierra was the matriarch of our herd, and one of our most beloved mares. She coming to AAE with her two colts, Dayton & Clayton, in July 2009. Dayton was hers, Clayton she adopted at the feedlot she was at, and supposedly, his mom shipped to slaughter. In March, Sierra contracted a rare bacterial meningitis, and despite our best efforts to help her, it was severe, and we had to help her across the Rainbow Bridge.
Sierra had an incredibly deep soul, and most everyone that met her was drawn to her. Volunteers loved her! Sierra was also the grandma of the herd. Whenever we had babies, they were hovered around her to eat with her, and they’d spend their time under her watchful eye. We’re very sad she wasn’t able to be grandma to Theo, Noah, Tyler, Coley, and Niko. They would have loved her and leaned on her when they needed her. In a way, like many of us did. There’s a big emptiness without Sierra in the pasture. She was there through it all, until this year. Just happy she go to experience the beauty and big pastures of Pilot Hill. Sierra, your presence is missed so much! You were so very special!
Jennings came to AAE in 2020 from a distressed sanctuary. He had a tennis ball-sized mass on his sheath, and it wasn’t being treated. He was a mustang, and he was about 19 this year. In June, a few months after Sierra left us, our sweet boy, Jennings, crossed the Rainbow Bridge. He had a large swelling alongside his sheath that was there for weeks, then months. We were hopeful it was pigeon fever, but it never opened to drain. We thought it was just deep and needed to be opened surgically, so Jennings went to the clinic to open and drain the abscess. Sadly, it wasn’t an abscess, but a very large, invasive mass that was later determined to be a malignant melanoma. The kindest thing we could do was help him across the Rainbow Bridge before melanoma ravaged his body any more than it already had. He was still having a good day, and we wouldn’t want it any other way.
Jennings was such a sweet, handsome, and kind guy. He loved attention from volunteers, and he attached himself to different pasturemates (Elli was his fave at the time). Handsome Jennings made everone smile. Jennings, we miss your sweetness, your charm, and your beautiful eyes!
Barney, truly a gentle giant, was very depressed after losing his favorite gal, Sierra, in March. Little did we know, he may have been dealing with his own issues. In August, he got very colicky, and he was very, very sick. The docs thought he probably had a strangulating lipoma. Whatever it was, it wasn’t good, and it was unlikely he would be able to overcome the pain without surgery, and sadly, he wasn’t a good candidate for surgery for several reasons. Once again, we turned to the Rainbow Bridge to bring him relief and set him free to find his favorite girl, Sierra. He just wasnt the same without her. Later, we learned he had a very large clumped mass of small rocks in his gut.
Barney was another volunteer favorite. He was a big sweetheart that was loved without limits by at least a few special friends, and he was adored by many more. We’ll miss this big gentle guy and all of his slobbery kisses. He had his seat at the table in a corner paddock not far from the barn. Now there’s a big emptiness when we look that way, and he’s not there. Miss your big, lovable you, Barney! I’ll never forget your slobbers!
Flame came to AAE with his pal, Robbie, to help with our youth programs. They were the best of buds, and the kids and eveyone loved them. In August, just four days after Barney, we had to say goodbye to Flame. He, too, had a very bad colic episode, and we were faced with nearly the same situation as Barney. Sadly, Flame wasn’t a good surgery candidate, either, and the Rainbow Bridge was his kindest path.
Flame had been with AAE as one of our program horses for eight years. He introduced many new volunteers to horse care, and he introduced a lot of kids to (mini) horses in El Dorado Hills. Arthritis in his knee slowed him down quite a bit, but he was an incredibly sweet little man. He put smiles on so many faces. With Flame departed, the timing was right, and Robbie had a chance to go back home to his real mom, right where he should be. These little scuttlebutts brought so much joy to everyone that met them. Flame, we miss you every day! Robbie, we miss you, too, but so glad you could gete back home.
Sweet Stetson, a senior TB, came to AAE last year after seizure by a local law enforcement agency. After some recovery, he had a new battle, chronic abscesses in his front hooves, off and on. As they say, “horses will be horses”, and somehow (how is a mystery), Stetson injured his shoulder rather seriously while in his stall/paddock. Initially, he was improving, then he declined. It became very clear one evening that he couldn’t go on. Once again, we journeyed to the Rainbow Bridge, and he crossed over. He was free from pain.
Stetson was an genuinely sweet, sweet guy. He was so patient, kind, and strong, and he tried so hard to win his battle. Stetson was easy to hang out with, he was just easy! That’s not a word that describes many of the horses around AAE. They’re not all hard, but few are “easy”. Stetson went along with whatever the plan was. Every once in a while he’d share an opinion, and if he did, he almost always earned the opportunity to share it. Really, he was just a big love. Stetson, we tried hard to fix you, buddy, but some angel above must have needed you more, maybe your mom called. You were loved beyond words, big guy! We’ll miss your easy way and your gentle heart, and we’ll never forget your fight. Run free, Bud!
Oh T, how special you came to be! Tio, a beautiful 10 year old QH gelding, came to AAE about five years ago to recover from chronic soft tissue injuries in his front right fetlock/pastern areas. He recovered enough to be pasture sound, but not long after he was feeling good and had graduated to a larger paddock, we spotted a small pencil eraser-sized swelling on the front of his left front “knee”, what was the good knee. He wasn’t lame, it was just a “new” bump. Well, that little swelling grew and grew and grew. At some point, he became “off”, and later started walking with a limp. Eventually, his range of motion reduced, and he walked a bit like an old man. Despite a variety of monthly injections and different treatments, nothing we did slowed the growth. Though he had a big arthritic knee, he was a really happy, occasionally awnry guy, and playful guy. Every know and then, he’d rear, buck, and even come off all four. We’d wince and worry. One day, something changed, and though his mind and body wanted to go, his knee didn’t. It was time to set free him free.
Tio was a bit of a stinker when he got to AAE, but over the weeks, months, and years, he softened so much. In the beginning, he was big and pushy, and he was so excited by everything. As part of his early rehab, he had daily hand walks down the same path, day after day. It was like he was seeing new, exciting things every day when he was taken out for a walk, and he couldn’t wait to see and smell all the “things”. LOL! Same ol’ sights, T! Eventually, he got easier and easier, and he turned into a big, soft, marshmallow…but he still had a little ‘tude, and he like to sneak a little taste of you when you weren’t looking. Tio was another volunteer favorite, and he was extra special to some. He was so, so, so loved! Tio had his paddock outside the barn, and I’m sure I’m not the only one that expexts to see Tio when i walk out the back door. it’s not right to see another horse in his space.
For those of you volunteered in El Dorado Hills, chances are, you knew, Holli, the bestest girl in the world. At 15, and after being part of this AAE journey for 12 years, she left our Earthly world in April. To say it was one of the most difficult days ever is an understatement, and she’s been missed every single day.
In EDH, she loved to be in the barn being loved on by everyone, and she loved everyone. Holl didn’t spend much time at the barn in Pilot Hill. I wish she could have, but was too hard for her to walk up and down the hill to get there, and she didn’t like getting in the truck any more. Truth be told, I couldn’t life her into the truck anymore, either. She was very content and became very lazy, but her heart was as big as ever. Thankfully, there are lots of Holli many memories I’ll cherish forever and plenty of Holli stories…way more than we have time for today. In time, they’ll be shared. Holl, you were supposed to live forever! I’ll miss ya’ every day, forever…and don’t forget to wait for me.
Oscar Oscar, Oscar! We were told Oscar was a senior Juliana piggy. Oscar came to AAE with his ol’ piggy friend, Oliver, almost four years ago, after we took in several horses from a distressed sanctuary. The sanctuary had gotten a three-day notice to vacate, and the very senior and very obese pigs had no where to go. About a year or so ago, we discovered Oscar had a testicular tumor. It grew and grew and grew. Unfortunately, there was no more room for it to grow. Oscar crossed the Rainbow Bridge, and hopefully, Oliver met him on the other side.
Oscar and Oliver were so fat, their eye’s were closed with by fat pads and they stepped on their bellies as they dragged the ground. It made sense that we could/should be able to get them placed in a farm or pig sanctuary, but despite our best efforts, none would take them. It became clear, they were supposed to stay at AAE. Oliver crossed over last year, and it seems after he was gone, we really got to know Oscar. Oscar taught those of us that didn’t know, how amazing pigs can be. He was a gentle ol’ soul, he liked to be fed like he was a king, he enjoyed belly rubs, and he captured a lot of hearts, along with a few laughs. Fortunately, Oscar had a few special friends that treated him like royalty, and his last year was without doubt the best year of his life. You were the best, Oscar, you were one in a million! We hope you’re running free with Oliver.
Sona came to AAE in 2020 with Mia and their Black Angus herd to help reduce the starthistle and tall overgrowth at the Pilot Hill property before we moved horses over in 2021. When the herd moved out, these two ol’ ladies stayed behind. Sona was 18 this year and Mia is 19. They’re both sweet ol’ girls, and they’ve enjoyed an easy pasture life the last few years. Sadly, Sona’s time came, and before help could get here, she crossed over. Thank you, Sona for being such a good weedeater, a sweet moo, and good company for the mustangs.
Even though these animals are no longer with us, their stories will continue to inspire us, and we will carry their memories forward with gratitude and love.
We are so thankful to each of you for being part of this journey with us, for believing in our mission, and for sharing in both the joy and the sorrow that come with rescue work. Your support means everything.
This holiday season, the horses we rescue have only one wish: a bright future. With your support, we can give them more than just shelter — we can give them hope. Join us in making their dreams come true by helping us provide the funding needed to care for and rehome these majestic creatures. Your generosity this December will help more horses find their second chance in 2025.

It’s that time at the end of the year when we reflect upon the horses (and other animals) you have helped over the past 12 months. We are filled with so much gratitude for your support, because this is what makes rescuing and caring for horses-in-need possible. Every horse represents the combined efforts of our community – volunteers, donors, and supporters who believe in the power of second chances.
As is tradition in December, each day this month, we share stories from the past year that are the direct result of you and your dedication to horses-in-need. Thank you for being such an incredible horse warrior and fighting for horses who need another chance. We hope you enjoy! Happy Holidays to all!
SWEENEY & TYLER
Sweeney is a beautiful ~5 year old Arabian mare. She looked like a tick when she arrived. Her midline was round and plump, and she looked miserably pregnant! We wanted her to deliver so she’d get some relief, but at the same time, she wasn’t halterable. Poor girl was suspicious of every move anyone would make when in her bubble. She was a bit of a challenge, and unfortunately, we didn’t have enough time to earn her trust. She arrived at AAE on March 20, and she delivered a sweet little filly on April 8, 2024, not even three weeks later, on Eclipse Day. Sweeney and Tyler’s names were inspired by Eclipse Day. Sunny Sweeney for the obvious, and Bonnie Tyler who sings Total Eclipse of the Heart. (For those that don’t know, AAE horse names are country artist inspired. We have some fun with that!)
Sweeney was a great mom, and a protective mom, so we gave these girls there space while Sweeney adapted to her new role. Fortunately, both seemed very healthy after delivery. She’s young, and we wouldn’t be surprised if Tyler was her first foal. Once they had some time to themselves, we reintroduced human touch, halter and lead, and kind new ways of thinking. Before long, she was accepting a halter, learning to lead, and having her hooves handled.
Sweeney came around slow but sure. Her confidence grew a little every day. Tyler, too, but she was a little toughie. She got so good at hiding behind mom and avoiding humans, but thankfully, we figured her out. Once Sweeney was confident enough, she had her hooves trimmed, and she had dental care, vaccines, and deworming, and she got a microchip. Tyler was dewormed, had her vaccines and hoof care.
These two gals received another incredible gift; they were adopted together and they’ll run off into the sunset, together, forever!

KACEY & MICA
Kacey and Mica were the last two girls we brought back from our third trip to Susanville on April 6. Along with Karli, these girls added to the rescue group, and the effort became a 15 horse intake, plus Norah’s filly, Noah. Thankfully, Kacey and Mica were in fairly good condition.
KACEY
Mom, Kacey, is an ~eight year old Arabian mare that is sweet as pie
Her filly, Mica, is a ~three year old Arabian filly who is equally sweet as pie with a little bit of sass! It was quickly obvious that Kacey and Mica were a very bonded pair. The thought of separating these two was basically unthinkable. They were not easy to distinguish, but mama, Kacey, has the narrow blaze and a little white on her front right pastern!
They are both very friendly and mild-mannered. Neither was keen with the introduction of a halter, but it didn’t take much to earn their trust. Haltering quickly became easier, and learning to lead didn’t take long. Once they were halterable and handleable, they go their spa day(s), like the rest (hoof and dental care, vaccines, and deworming, and they got their microchips).
We can’t say enough about how sweet and kind these two lovelies are.
Kacey and Mica were adopted to a wonderful family, and they will get to stay together forever!! That is one of the best gifts ever! They are going to make THE best partners!

KARLI
Not long after Noah was born, we got another call asking us to take the remaining three mares. The other rescue was unable to take them. There was a fair coming to town, and the horses needed to be moved soon. Oh my! We made another trip to Susanville on April 6, and we brought back the last three girls. They were in better condition.
Karli is a ~3 year old Arabian filly. She’s one of the most beautiful of the bunch! Karli was so scared and reactive when a halter was first introduced, but we took it slow, and her courage showed. She was so brave. She’s so willing as long as you take things slow.
Karli is a very lovely, sensitive lil’ filly and a trainer favorite! She was curious, but so timid when she got to AAE. Slowly but surely, her confidence has grown, and she’s improved so much. She’s good with hoof handling and the farrier, if you take it slow. She’s improving every day. Karli is enjoying pasture life with a herd, and she comes to greet you. She’s been introduced to a saddle pad and surcingle, but that was difficult for her. She was reactive and still needs to grow some more courage before moving forward to fast. She’s really a sweet thing with a ton of potential.
Karli is available for adoption.
Karli is current with dental and hoof care, vaccines, and deworming, and she has a microchip. Her young-hose experienced person will be patient and take things slow to build her confidence so she can take life in stride

NORAH & NOAH
It was March 20 when we brough Norah back to AAE along with 11 other Arabians. Her belly was big, and her udder was full. We knew it wouldn’t be long before she’d be welcoming a foal.
NORAH
Norah is an ~8 year old Arabian mare. We saw her, and we wanted to get her back to AAE asap, but the long drive ahead felt daunting for her. It was dark when we unloaded the trailers, and the next morning we got to work shuffling horses and paddocks. We knew we didn’t have long to get hands on Miss Norah so the vet could handle her should she have problems with delivery.
Thankfully, it didn’t take long for Norah to accept touching and haltering, and it didn’t seem all too foreign to her. The late night and early morning checks began, and in the early hours of her fourth night, March 24, little Miss Noah was born.
Norah was an amazing mom, and Noah’s grown into a beautiful weanling. Mom’s had come challenges along the way. She arrived with a couple old injuries on her hind right leg. One healed, the other hasn’t. She has a golf ball-sized mass on her heel. We’re hoping it’s proud flesh (granulation tissue), but also suspect a sarcoid. See graphic photos here.It needs to be removed now that baby is weaned and fly season has finally slowed down. On top of that, Norah had a mystery injury about a month after arrival. Somehow, she fractured her upper jaw and nearly lost some teeth. Thankfully, Dr Errico at Loomis Basin was able to repair her jaw, and she’s healed well. See graphic photos here. She’ll have her dental next month after waiting about six months for her bone to heal. Once she has her dental, and her mass is removed, that will complete all of the vet care from the Susanville horses. It’s been a long haul! Well, we may have a few pregnant mares delivering foals in the next month or two.
Norah will be available for adoption after her mass is removed and healed. Stay tuned for updates. If you’d like to help with Norah’s veterinary cost, we’d sure appreciate the extra help! Donate for to help with those vet costs here.
NOAH
Noah is an 8-1/2 month old Arabian filly. She is a proud and sassy lil’ one, and she’s a ton of fun!
Noah halters and leads well. She’s very confident and loves to run wth the big girls in the pasture. She’s smart and learns quickly.
Noah is current with hoof care, vaccines, and deworming, and she has a microchip. Noah is available for adoption to a young-horse experienced person. She would love to go home with her pal, Theo, too. Interested? Please submit an Adoption Inquiry.

JULIETTE & SOPHIA
Juliette and Sophia are two of the sweetest young ladies in the seizure group, despite enduring extra challenging times before coming to AAE.
JULIETTE
Juliette is an absolute lovely ~3 year old Arabian filly. She wasn’t initially going to come to AAE, but she was so thin and sickly looking that the Lassen County team felt she also needed immediate support. We already had the 11 that we felt needed the most urgent help; there were two very heavily pregnant mares, the mare with the days old foal, three more mare/foal pairs with very scrawny foals, and the filly with the big slipper foot. A last minute decision was made to add her to the group. After all, twelve is only a number, and her eyes cried for help. We couldn’t leave her behind. She was kind, sweet, and oh so timid, but malnourished and struggled for food among the other horses.
Juliette was so scared. She was picked on by the rest of the group, and she was pushed off feed despite having extra feeders in the paddocks. She yearned for connection, and in time, she accepted touch. Slowly but surely, the ugly little duckling has turned into a beautiful swan. Photos don’t do her justice. She halters and leads well. Her hooves are easy to handle, but she still needs a little confidence with the farrier, though she improves with each visit. She’s been introduced to a flag, saddlepad, and saddle, and she’s been brave and willing with it all.
Juliette is current with hoof and dental care, vaccines, and deworming, and she has a microchip. There’s a chance this young filly is pregnant after being exposed to stallions before seizure. Bloodwork indicated she was pregnant, but unlikely able to carry a foal to term. It does not look like she is, but it’s possible. The horses were seized in February, so she would foal in January, if she is pregnant (assuming stallions and mares were separated on arrival).
Juliette is available for adoption to a horse experienced person that appreciates this sweet girl’s kind-hearted soul and wants to help build her confidence to help her become the best she can be. She needs time to allow her body and joints time to mature after a very rough start. She would love to go home with her pal, Sophia, too. Interested? Please submit an Adoption Inquiry.
SOPHIA
Sophia is a ~2 year old Arabian filly. She is a phenomenal little soul! She came with a broken spirit and damaged hoof and she’s overcome so much! When we initially saw her, we didn’t think she was very old (maybe 6-8 months), but soon realized she was likely closer to two years old. She had a big slipper hoof, maybe due to an injury? We don’t know if one of the mares is her mom or whether her mom was one that passed. She was definitely impacted by the harsh winter and inadequate nutrition, not to mention a wonky hoof.
The sweet little filly is the best. She has come so far from the meek and passive filly that she was to the alpha in her herd. She’s loveable, gentle, and adores attention. She’s loving pasture life with some of the other mares and foals. Though she’s bossy, she’s respectful and gets along with everyone. She’s easy with haltering, leading, and handling her hooves. She’s good with the farrier and vet. Sophia is simply a gem. Her hoof was correctively trimmed, and she does very well, though she has some bony changes that will likely limit her abilities beyond pasture life. That said, she runs with the herd, and if you didn’t know, you might not know there’s an issue. We love this lil’ sweetheart.
Sophia is current with hoof and dental care, vaccines, and deworming, and she has a microchip. As mentioned above, mares and fillies had been turned out with stallions before seizure, and bloodwork indicates Sophia is pregnant. That said, we’re not certain she’s still carrying a foal. The horses were seized in February, so she should foal in January, if she has not lost the foal (assuming stallions and mares were separated on arrival).
Sophia will be available for adoption after January (or after foaling and weaning) as a non-riding horse due to her residual bony/hoof changes. Her person should be a young-horse experienced person, someone that wants to create a non-riding relationship with this fabulous lil’ filly. She’s behind in development after a very rough start and needs time to grow and mature. She would love to go home with her pal, Juliette, too. Interested? Please submit an Adoption Inquiry.
This holiday season, the horses we rescue have only one wish: a bright future. With your support, we can give them more than just shelter — we can give them hope. Join us in making their dreams come true by helping us provide the funding needed to care for and rehome these majestic creatures.

LILA, NIKO, CLAIRE, & COLEY
Lila and her colt, Niko, and Claire and her filly, Coley, came to AAE as part of the first 12 horses in the large seizure group introduced in yesterday’s email. When we initially met this herd, several of the horses were social and enjoyed touching and attention, but once we got everyone back to AAE, none were halterable. It was a bit daunting to realize we had 12, then 15, horses that seemed to know little, if anything, about haltering, leading, or anything but friendly scratches. Touching is important, but it’s also challenging when they’ve learned to avoid the things they dislike.
LILA
Lila is a beautiful ~10 year old Arabian mare. She’s incredibly sweet and affectionate, too. Lila was relatively easy to introduce haltering, leading, and hoof handling. Sadly, she has an old soft tissue injury to her hind leg (very thickened tendon), which will likely limit her riding future. That said, Lila runs with the herd, and she isn’t obviously lame.
Lila is easy to handle, she’s good with the farrier, and she’s good for vet care. She’s easy-going, laid back, and generally a really, really nice mare. So far, she’s been willing to try all we ask, and she’s a quick learner. She enjoys every bit of attention she gets. Due to the old injury and potential pregnancy, we’ve focused on advancing the other horses from this group.
Lila is current with hoof and dental care, vaccines, and deworming, and she has a microchip. Lila is available for adoption as a non-riding companion . Interested? Please submit an Adoption Inquiry.
NIKO
Niko is a yearling Arabian gelding. He is the cutest little man! He was a scrawny and sad little guy when we met him in March, and he was separated from his mom. He and his pal, Coley (below), were definitely impacted by the harsh winter and inadequate nutrition. No doubt mom did her best to feed him to keep him warm.
The scraggly little dude has turned in to a handsome prince. He’s friendly, sweet, and enjoys attention. He’s enjoyed pasture life and gets along with everyone in the herd. He’s good with haltering (best in a small space) with a slow/quiet approach. He’s approachable and will approach in a large pasture, but prefers to focus on his herdmates and playing with the other youngsters. He’s a curious and kind, most of the time. He is a typical mouthy guy that needs an occasional reminder to keep his teeth to himself!
Niko is current with hoof care, vaccines, and deworming, and he has a microchip. Niko is available for adoption to a young-horse experienced person, someone that will take time to develop a trusting relationship, and give his body and joints time to grow. He’s behind in his education after a very rough start. He would love to go home with his pal, Coley. Interested? Please submit an Adoption Inquiry.
CLAIRE
Claire is a ~5 year old Arabian mare, and she came in with her filly, Coley. These are two really pretty girls. When the group arrived at AAE, Claire was one of the most reactive and least trusting. We need to give credit where credit is due. Claire has a new title, Most Improved Mare! Claire was slower to trust and accept haltering, but her confidence is growing, and she’s making tremendous progress. She halters and leads well, she’s good with hoof handling, and she stands quietly for the farrier. She enjoys human interaction so much that now she comes from the pasture to greet you!
Claire is sensitive to new things, and she can be reactive with noises and quick movements, but as her confidence grows, the reactivity is diminishing. She’s curious and willing, and she does best when you take things slow. Though she greets you in the pasture, Claire can still be somewhat challenging to halter in large spaces. She’s been introduced to a saddle pad, surcingle, and a saddle, and she’s handled all fairly well.
Claire is current with hoof and dental care, vaccines, and deworming, and she has a microchip. She is available for adoption to an experienced person with patience and knowledge to grow her confidence and guide her along the way. She will make a nice partner for someone willing to give her the time she needs to continue developing. Interested? Please submit an Adoption Inquiry.
COLEY
Coley is a gorgeous little yearling Arabian filly. When we first met, Coley was as sweet and curious as could be, though everything was on her terms. She was thin and scraggly, too. Her coat was in poor condition and heavily matted, but look at her now! Quite the beautiful transformation. She’s looking good, and she is feeling good, too.
Coley is curious, and she is quite the little character. Her confidence is continuing to grow. She halters and leads well, and she’s good with the farrier. She enjoys herd life with some of the other youngsters, especially Niko.
Coley is current with hoof care, vaccines, and deworming, and she has a microchip. Coley is available for adoption to a young-horse experienced person, someone that will take time to develop a trusting relationship, and give her body and joints time to grow. She’s behind after a very rough start. She would love to go home with her pal, Niko. Interested? Please submit an Adoption Inquiry.
