Chicken Check-in Friday August 23, 2024
It’s going to be a busy weekend with two potential adopters coming to meet Bakari and Gypsy. 🤞 That there is a connection between horses and humans. Doc has a partial sponsor. Thank you Rachel. We are still needing another partial sponsor or multiple partial sponsors to get to the full mo they sponsorship level. Dancer and Chance are next to start work under saddle. Tickets are now available for our Gala coming up next month. They can be purchased on our website at www.arabianhorserescueedu.org #arabianhorse #arabianhorserescue #adoptdontshop #horserescue #Arabianstrong
Chicken Checkin In Friday
Friday 8/16/24 #ahredoc really needs a full sponsorship of $200 or multiple partial sponsors. He came to us in 2019 with an extreme case of Stringhalt. He has overcome so much adversity during his rehabilitation. We made him our first and only permanent breed ambassador as well as an ambassador for Stringhalt survivors. Because of him, multiple people have reached out to us over the years asking for guidance with their horse that suffered from Stringhalt. We know that Doc’s story along with our encouragement has saved horses from euthanasia. We always had a full sponsorship for Doc, which covered his monthly feed bill. Unfortunately, last year we lost that sponsorship and with this year being such a difficult year financially, we fear that we may not be able to realistically continue to offer Doc sanctuary during his final years. Doc truly deserves to stay here with us, as he is happy and has been a part of the us for 5 years now. Prior to him coming to us, he was pulled off a feedlot and then fostered for another rescue until he developed Stringhalt. Our best guess of his age is 25 years old. We would not ask if we absolutely didn’t need help covering the cost to care for him. Due to his teeth being expired, Doc is on a mash diet, which cost more than a horse eating hay. Many of you will remember Doc’s story and his journey. If you can help, please consider doing so. Sponsorship of any amount will be greatly appreciated. You can set up recurring monthly donation at PayPal.me/arabianhorserescue or online at www.arabianhorserescueedu.com Thank you for your support. #Arabianhorserescue #stringhalt #horserescue #sponsorshipopportunity #sponsorahorse #ArabianStrong
Temps are high and Dusty has already put in 5 hours of work before this video was shot…She can’t believe how forgetful she was with names. Everyone is allowed one off day.Summer months we leave horses out 24/7 when possible. Horses that have no shade during super high temps are brought into the barn during the hottest part of the day. There they have windows open at their stalls and aisle fan moving air around. This summer we are using bale size hay nets to allow our horses access to hay 24/7, plus it reduces work load a bit since we are not tossing them hay 3 times a day. We really could use some portable shelters. If only we could get one donated? That would be a huge help and boost in moral. During summer, we pick turnouts twice a day, clean water troughs daily, with the exception of super high temps like we had yesterday, when water troughs are done twice a day. Today everyone got fly spray and swat applied to face below the fly mask. Thank you for watching and please consider sending us a monetary donation. We are not going to lie…It takes a ton of money to care for these beauties. Any amount is greatly appreciated.PayPal.me/arabianhorserescue Venmo @arabianhorserescue www.arabianhorserescueedu.org Thank you so very much.#arabianhorse #arabianhorserescue #arabianhorsesofinstagram #adoptdontshop #chicken #arabianstrong

Chicken Checkin Friday
#ahrechance was assessed in the roundpen yesterday. He has a lovely trot and is balanced in that gate. He will need some desensitizing and boundary setting on the ground. He likes to get in personal space. However, this is an easy fix. #ahredancer was also assessed yesterday. Dancer needs to develop more balance in his gaits and moves willingly. He tends to be more nervous than his brother, however, that just means he has more confidence to gain. Nothing that is a big deal, he will come along nicely. #AHREStella has been adopted and has started her new Chapter. We are very happy for her. Thank you for watching our weekly updates. Both Chance and Dancer are still in need of sponsors. You can sign up for monthly recurring donation to sponsor at PayPal.me/arabianhorserescue or on our website www.arabianhorserescueedu.org Any amount helps with the care of the horses. They are eating a ton to get weight on and will need dentals soon. Thank you for your support.
Chicken Checkin July 19th
🐴#ahreFrosty had developed an abscess on her right front leg. The vet has treated it and she will heal completely from it, and she's already moving around better.
🐴#ahreStella has her adoption finalized so she will be moving this weekend. We're so excited for her new situation with her long time sponsor and now adopter!
🐴#ahreChance & 🐴#ahreDancer are moving over to us from the quarantine barn on Sunday.
We had a potential adopter come look at 🐴#ahreGypsy & 🐴#ahreBakari and another interested party coming soon. They are both great prospects, great on trails and great all round partners.
🐴#ahrePercy is still at his under saddle training and progressing very well. He has a collected walk & trot, he's very sensible, he's now working on his transitions into the canter. He could be shown in the open circuit for western pleasure (he's not registered with the Arabian Horse Association), or he could do endurance as he's a strong, mighty guy! He's cute, sensible, a clean slate, and excelling in his training - he'll be available soon also!
🐔Lady Gaga is a satin feathered bantam silkie with feathered legs and 5 toes!

Gypsy Believes!!!
#ahregypsy is such a trusting mare. She prefers trails over arena work. We have had multiple people riding her in the arena and on the trail. Yesterday she crossed a creek and walked over the suspension bridge. She has a nice efficient trot, is super sound, and could blaze the trails or even do some endurance.
Gypsy is available for adoption.
Age: 16-18 years young
Height: 14.3 hh
Breed: Arabian Quarter Horse.
Apply to adopt www.arabianhorserescueedu.org

#ahreGypsy is READY FOR ADOPTION. 🐎 She's a 14.3h tall, beautiful bay mare. She is looking for an intermediate to advanced rider as she can be slightly stubborn about getting going. She doesn't love to trot in the arena, but really enjoys and is fabulous on the trails.
Dusty runs through some of the desensitizing exercises she does with the horses- rope over her back, rope around the legs, rope hitting the ground nearby, then with the flag around her - she is very solid, sound, ready to be a trail partner. She's a gem!!
🐓Dusty also introduced us to her “no name” olive egger chicken- she is a cutie with blue and puffy cheeks.

#ahreChance is putting on weight at our quarantine barn. His skin is doing better and his eyes are clearing up. He's easy to handle and accepts the fly spray.
#ahreDancer is more standoffish, but he's gaining weight on his alfalfa. He had a bad skin condition on his face and chest, which Dusty is treating with medicated shampoo. His face is looking a lot better. The bite marks he came in with are also healing. We are getting fly spray on him with a little bit of work.
Dancer had a colic bout which he recovered from, but still may be a bit traumatized by that.

Chicken Checkin Friday July 5th.
Thanks for watching our weekly update.
#ahresunny is available for adoption as a companion horse. Beautiful rich palamino color, she glistens. She does require some maintenance, like soaked hay pellets, however, not much as she seems to gain weight breathing air. It floors us how she was emaciated when arriving. She must not have been fed at all.
#ahrebakari is sound, and is a good riding horse. He is ready to be adopted. He is a safe trail and arena horse for an intermediate or better rider.
#ahregypsy This mare is getting better and better. She loves trail riding. Not so much arena work, though she will do it. Sound mare with a very efficient ground covering trot. Could be an amazing trail horse and even do endurance. She is ready for adoption now.
#ahrefrosty This little mare is doing great with groundwork. She exudes Arabian essence. Just a lovely mare that is broke to ride. Will be available soon.
Thank you again for joining us. The hot temperature is zapping us. We are doing everything we can to keep the horses comfortable.

Chicken Checkin for June 28th!
Welcome back to #ahreFrosty! We will be requesting a DNA test to see if she’s registered She is a pretty gray mare who has been ridden in the field and arena by an experienced youth for the past 8 years. We will evaluate her and she how she does overall and on the trails.
#ahreGypsy has done great on the trails lately and is ready to be adopted! She will ride in the arena, but has more whoa than go. On the trials she wants to trot, but she can be easily kept at the walk. She is 14.3h-a gorgeous bay mare.
#ahreBakari also did great on the trails this week.
Also, Dusty has a new fur baby!!! A Maltese Pomeranian mix 😍

We pulled Frosty from a low end auction in Spring of 2015. What we were told was that she was purchased at a different auction 3 months prior to this. Frosty was sold, then returned to the seller after experiencing abuse in the hands of the buyer. The seller then ran her through the auction, in which we pulled her from. Abuse and two auctions within a three month period. Even through this, Frosty showed her resilient self, opening her heart and soul up to a young girl who has loved her all these years. Due to financial considerations the family felt it was best for Frosty to have her come back to us so she can find a new family to love her. Frosty could use a sponsor while we access her for placement. She will also need a dental exam and likely float. Thank you Dusty, Nick, and Debra for making the 2 1/2 drive one way to pick Frosty up. Fuel cost for the trip was $100. Our truck guzzles diesel.
Thank you to all the volunteers who made it out today to ensure the barn chores and horses were taken care of.
We could use support from you our supporters. Frosty would love a sponsor too.
To donate or sign up to sponsor Frosty PayPal.me/arabianhorserescue or www.arabianhorserescueedu.org go to donate page.

Chicken Check in for June 21st!
A little update on a couple of our rescues:
#ahreFiona has her dread out of her tail. She's working in the round pen today. She laid down in her stall last night, which means she's feeling comfortable with us. 🐎
#ahrePercy is in training, being ridden under saddle - he might be ready for adoption in the next month or so. 🐴
Also a sweet look at Dusty's barred rock chicken - "The Rock" 🐔

#ahreKashi is a joy to work with and be around. She comes when called from the field and enjoys ground work and a little hard-earned, after workout hand grazing💕🐴💜 #ahre #AdoptDontShop #horsesofinstagram #arabianhorse #ArabianStrong
#ahrePrince did great in his first lunging session on both his sighted and not sighted sides - was walking and trotting in both directions!
Even a prince has to learn the ropes of the farm and being a good citizen!
He's a smartie and has a great build. He will make an amazing partner to one person with experience training a blind horse.
Do you have experience with visually impaired horses? Could you make space in your heart and life for this lovely Prince of a horse?

Chicken Checkin
Happy Chicken Checkin Day! Lots of fun stuff going on at the AHRE barn today.
#AHREPrince is living it up in the paddock with the other geldings and has gone through his first lunging session with Dusty! This special guy is looking for his forever home with someone who has experience with visually-impaired horses.
#AHREFiona continues to make leaps and bounds every week. We are so impressed with how far she has come, accepting grooming, fly spray, consistent touch and more!
#AHREGypsy is responding so well to lots of groundwork and lunging training and would partner really well with a strong handler. We’re excited to get her out on some trails soon!
#AHREBakari is ready to find his special person; he is a total sweetheart and would make a great partner for someone looking for the perfect trail horse.
Thank you for joining us in our journey! If you’re interested in helping us continue our progress, consider becoming a monthly donor for one of these sweet souls. Visit https://www.arabianhorserescueedu.org/donate.html, choose the “Monthly” option, and indicate which horse team you’d like to join. Every little bit helps! We couldn’t do this without all of you, thank you from the bottom of our hearts! #teamahre #arabianstrong
#AHREMazie gets a spray bottle desensitizing session!
#AHREMazie is the star of our chicken check in this week!
She's doing great with her continued ground work and you get a sneak peek at our desensitzation techniques with the fly spray bottle with her today.
#AHREBakari is available but also has had several people interested which we're continuing to follow up on adoption applications for him.
#AHREGypsy has been continued to be ridden at a walk, trot and is starting to work up to a canter. She likes to be in the outdoor arena, but is improving with every ride and doing especially well and relaxed with a sidepull.
#AHREPrince is starting ground work as well - he's strong, and athletic and just needs to learn the ropes of being a good adult horse!
#AHREFiona continues to make us proud with her brains, beauty and braun.
#AHREPercy is continuing his under saddle training off site with our trainer, Sandy.
Dusty shares a lovely look at one of her cute silky paint hens...fun little girl!

#AHRESunny is ready to adopted as a companion horse or potentially lead line horse for some small kids. We’re loving her summertime palomino vibes 💕
Chicken Check in May 25th
#AHRESunny is ready to be adopted as a lead line/companion horse.
She’s an easy keeper and looking gorgeous with her summer palomino colors shining through. 🤩
#AHREKashi continues to progress in groundwork basics and is such a joy to be around.
#AHREPrince got a great review from the vet that his blind eye isn’t causing him pain and isn’t in need of being removed.
We’re looking for someone to love on a blind horse- do you have experience with a special needs horse? He would definitely benefit from having one person build trust with him and get trained from the ground up. He’s a sturdy, good minded boy outside his eye injury.
It was a great week on the farm and we’re loving spring and working with all our rescues! 🌸
