This Christmas Give Your Heart to Jennings!
The following is from All About Equine Rescue:
As we count down to 2024, join us every day this month as we share stories from the barn that show how your support has helped horses this year and every year.
Jennings is a special boy with a big heart! This Christmas, if you give him your heart, he won’t give it away!
JENNINGS
Jennings came to AAE from a distressed mustang sanctuary with several of his friends in July 2020. He was thin and had a rapidly growing mass on his sheath that was suspected to be squamous cell carcinoma.
Shortly after his arrival at AAE, the mass was removed and a biopsy revealed that it was metastatic melanoma. Thankfully, margins were clean, and there was no vascular invasion. No additional recurrent or new growths have been found since!
Jennings is a 2005-ish BLM mustang. He is sweet, respectful, and friendly and has been since the day we met him. He likes to hang out with volunteers and enjoys grooming. He’s good with the farrier, no big issues loading, and he trailers well. He has been ridden in the past, but he should have a refresher before hitting the trails again.
Somehow this special boy hasn’t been adopted yet! Jennings is looking for an experienced home to review his education with a patient and calm approach. Having an equine friend would benefit him, especially to one who can show him how to be a more confident horse.
If it sounds like you’d be a good fit for Jennings, then submit an adoption inquiry and a member of our adoption team will be in touch.
As we wind down the year, our goal is to raise at least $35,000 this holiday season to jump start our funding for the new year and make sure 2024 is merry & bright for horses-in-need.
Like you, we have felt the pressure of the changing economy. Hay, fuel, supplies, and other care costs have increased substantially. The effects are compounded for nonprofits across the country, as many of us have seen a decrease in overall donations. Rising costs and fewer donations are stretching us thin, impacting our ability to serve the number of horses we typically serve. We’ll scale back as we need. We need your support more than ever.
On average, it costs about $8 per horse each day for feed and health care for the horses at AAE. Expenses add up quickly when caring for 50+/- horses and other animals, including costs for basic care, diagnostics, treatments, medications, surgery, and emergency care, when needed.
We know your lives have been impacted, too, we’re all in this together. If you’re able, please consider making a year end donation to support this life-saving work and make it possible to help more horses-in-need.
Expenses can add up quickly, but your donations can, too! If every one of our followers made a $5 donation, we could surpass our goal by thousands.
You can help make similar stories to share next year by donating today. Any amount is very much appreciated, and it makes a big difference for the horses.
