AAE Friends, Supporters, & Service Providers
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!
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.
