This is a Big day for AAE, and an important day. Funding today helps bridge the gap between now and our annual Boots & Bling event in the fall. Your support helps horses-in-need like Trinity, Rimes, Sage, Elvie, and Kinsey, recent law enforcement intakes.

This year, we’ve had a surge in requests for assistance from law enforcement. Trinity and Rimes were seized in a nearby cruelty case.

Both were thin and needing help. Trinity’s hooves were in poor condition, and she had a large swelling over a front fetlock. Radiographs and a vet exam indicated it appeared to be scar tissue from an old injury that was likely untreated.

Rimes was lame with swelling over her right rear pastern, and her long hooves caused more pain and discomfort. Radiographs showed two older, unhealed fractures in her hind pastern.

Visit Trinity and Rimes‘ webpages for additional information and photos of each gal.

AAE was also called to help with foster and medical assistance for three horses from a stray/abandonment case. They were all thin and needing basic care, too. Kinsey had an old, open laceration over a hind fetlock. Elvie had very long, neglected hooves and infected eyes, and Sage had a nail in her hoof.

When no one came forward to claim any of the horses, they were transferred to AAE. Their basic needs (hoof and dental care, vaccines and deworming) were updated, and they each received a microchip, as well as other diagnostics/treatment necessary (e.g. radiographs of long hooves and nail in hoof, wound treatment, etc). You can learn more about each horse and see additional photos by visiting their pages: Kinsey, Elvie, Sage

When horses arrive at AAE, they often need their basic care updated (dental and hoof care, vaccines, deworming, etc). Some require more, such as diagnostics, treatment, and sometimes surgery. That’s why Big Day of Giving is so important. We need to be ready and able to provide the necessary care for horses who come to AAE. Feed and care costs have skyrocketed the last few years, and it’s getting more and more difficult to keep up with so many horses-in-need. Your support keeps us helping horses every day!

Give now and anytime until 11:59:59 pm tonight!
