Happy Friday everyone 💞

We hope everyone is having a fantastic day 😙 we wanted to remind you here at the rescue that we go through TONS of hay and grain for our horses. We easily spend $1000 a week on hay alone, that’s not including anything else.

We are able to transform lives, provide sanctuary, and adopt horses out into amazing homes with your support! Please consider donating towards the continued care of our horses here, and help us continue to change lives one horse at a time. We have had a lot of people reach out to us recently about surrendering horses, however we cannot take on more horses without the continued financial support to take care of them. Our first priority will always be the horses we have in our care already 💖

We provide sanctuary for horses like Highway Man (pictured) and many other horses here at our rescue. No donation is small whether it is $1 or $100 we appriciate everything we receive. It helps us continue to keep our gates open for more horses in need of a soft landing 🥰

Here is your Wednesday reminder to keep salt and minerals out for your horses! I keep loose salt out as well as a block, that way the horses can choose what they’d rather have. The minerals we use are specific to our area and made here locally, especially for horses. I keep them out in loose form as well.

I’m sure you have all read somewhere that horses can’t get enough salt from the blocks themselves… well mine still love to lick on them! So it’s up to them which they would rather have, but both options are provided 😊

Pearl and Verdun life updates 🥰

Both are healthy and thriving like they should be 💞 now that Pearl has gained all her weight back, she is pretty anti social and has a strong dislike for people. Not to mention, she’s hard to catch, hard to trim…. She’s pretty much difficult to do ANYTHING with, unless it involves food- but hey at least she is healthy now right! 😅 I can’t blame her for the dislike of people though, shes lucky her and Verdun survived after coming to the rescue. They were both in really rough shape and things with both of them were pretty rough and go for a while. Verdun is growing like a w**d, but I do think he will be stunted in growth due to malnutrition. Only time will tell, we are just happy both mom and baby are doing so well now!

Anybody looking for a solid mare to add to the family? She is super pretty to boot 😍

She is from Doc Bar bloodlines, but more of a “all business” type mare- so she isn’t super lovey when it comes to people. Dominant one in a group setting, and is not super fond of other mares. Safe for kids, but she’s got some speed on her so they’d need to be handy. A bit hard to catch in a big area, but super food motivated. She’s barefoot currently and has no maintenance. Can be ridden in a hack or a bit. 21 years and maybe… idk 15hh? I’ve got some videos for anyone interested, the rescue page won’t let me post pictures and videos together.

Adoption fee and adoption contract applies 🩷

Slacking on my updates but I think it goes without saying- I thrive on chaos. Cause what else would I be doing with myself if I wasn’t questioning my life decisions 24/7 😅 I said I wanted less horses… well here I am with 3 more AND it’s still the first month of the new year 🥴

A HUGE thank you to Maddie for helping me organize my chaos, and going to pick up the sweetest old man- who we are now calling Pogo 🥹 he is very under weight and in need of some serious TLC. He came from the auction pipeline and found himself in need of a soft landing, so here we are. He is for sure in his 20’s but otherwise seems okay minus needing some basic care. If anyone would like to help sponsor his care (he needs his hooves done, teeth done, and obviously a solid refeeding program), he’s got a long road ahead of him. I couldn’t do this with out the amazing people in my life helping me every step of the way 🫶

Angel is another one of our sanctuary residents here at the rescue 🩷 she will spend the rest of her life with us getting all the love and care that she needs.

She is one of our more “unadoptable” horses (a larger mini to be exact) not to mention with her health issues- we do not want to have to worry about being moved around. She will be with us until the end of her life, and we are happy to provide that for her.

We are always looking for sponsors for our sanctuary residents towards hay, feed, vetting, or farrier expenses. Everything helps towards keeping our gates open and continuing to help horses like Angel. They deserve it 🦄

New Research Proves Horses Have Super Intelligence:

Horses are far more intelligent than most people realize, with cognitive abilities that place them among the smartest animals.

They have demonstrated skills in problem-solving, emotional intelligence, memory, and learning that rival those of many other species. For example, horses are known for their cleverness in opening stable doors or untying knots, showcasing their capacity for strategic thinking.

Emotionally, they form deep, empathetic bonds with humans and can sense feelings like pride or shame, often mirroring their human companions' emotions.

Their impressive cognitive skills also allow them to recognize symbols, communicate preferences, and adapt to complex situations, such as responding to commands in therapeutic environments.

One study even revealed that horses can adjust their communication based on whether humans are aware of hidden food, increasing visual and tactile signals like looking or nudging when their caretakers were unaware.

This ability to understand and respond to the knowledge state of others—previously thought to be unique to primates—illustrates the sophistication of horse cognition. Horses actively attempt to communicate with humans in much the same way they would with their herd members, making horse-human communication a true two-way street.

While horses may not match the intellectual capabilities of elephants, they are often considered more intelligent than dogs or cats in some areas, excelling in equine-assisted therapies where their sensitivity to human emotions makes them invaluable in psychological treatments

An adorable picture of Salem to get everyone’s attention 😝

We are picking up grain today at our local feed store. We go through a lot of feed due to a big portion of our horses being older, therefore we make a lot of mash for our oldies. If anyone would like to call in some extra bags of feed to the store, we would be extremely greatful 🩷

I will put a list of what we use below, and all you have to tell the store is that it’s for me (Ashley Stahl) and they will let me know. I will be going by after work today to pick everything up! 😚

-Alfalfa Pellets ($15)
- Enduro Equine Senior, 1/2 inch pellets ($13)

Sweet girl Amaryllis is settling in really well 🩷

She is still in QT, but isn’t sick at this time… hoping she doesn’t get sick at all🤞 her appetite is great, and other then being extremely underweight I don’t see any other issues with her. Although she is skeptical of people, she follows me at a distance and talks to me when she sees me coming. You can’t approach her head on, but if you step to her side and go for some neck scratches she will allow it 🥰 she will learn that not all people are bad. I’ve been blanketing her at night, and she’s easier to put a blanket on then half of my horses - so that’s a nice perk 😂

I can’t wait to see her blossom 🌸

Oma (left) is 27 and Grace (right) is 30 🦄

Crazy what a little love and food can do isn’t it? We got these two towards the end of October. These girls get a 5 gallon bucket of senior mash twice a day and free choice alfalfa…. Although I’m not sure how good they can chew the alfalfa, it makes them happy 😆 we’re still dealing with some nasty abscesses in Grace’s feet, but they are much better then we we first started treating them. It just takes time, and patience. The girls also say thank you for the new shed, right in time before the cold weather hits again next week 🫶

I haven’t done a hay fundraiser in a bit, and I could really use the help for this week. We are getting more super cold weather this weekend, so I would like to be as prepared as possible 🥲

I have already bought two large alfalfa bales which is $500, BUT I would really love help with a load of round bales. We get 8 at a time for $100 ea. so the total I am looking to raise is $800.

I’m not sure if anyone realizes how much hay I go through… but it’s a LOT. This doesn’t include grain and other supplements but we won’t get into all that lol 😅 I don’t like to ask for help unless I actually need it. So, here is me asking for help with purchasing our next load of hay 🫶 I will keep a running tally in the comments of what has been raised so far.

I know this isn’t a horse in need, but this is just as critical for us to fundraise for so we are able to provide for our horses 💕

Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas today!! 🎁🎄❤️💚

Cinnamon is another one of our sanctuary residents AND our very first mini we ever brought into the rescue 🩷 not to mention she makes a great unicorn all dressed up. We just love our sweet girl 🦄🥹 #AAHRS #rescue #horse #rescuehorse #minihorsesoftiktok #adoptdontshop #lawnmower

I was running late with breakfast this morning so I had to go down into the pasture to find everyone. Glad to see them exploring a bit and grazing on what little grass we actually do have left! I wish we could get one more big rain to settle all this dust and bring back some of the grass🥺 we feed year round to begin with, but having a little extra grass in the pasture always helps.

We LOVE getting updates from our adopters! Seriously, nothing is more rewarding than watching these horses get the happy ending they deserve 🥹 Gal is living her absolute BEST life with her new mom, and adopted four legged siblings 💕 I will post a picture in the comments of what Gal use to look like! We saved her a while back from the horse trading pipeline when she was skinny, beat up, and sick…. That seems like a distant memory now 🥰 so very thankful for amazing adopters!!!

Yall check out this AMAZING video of Melissa working with Liz!! Seriously, I’m in awe of how amazing this filly has been taking all the new aspects of training. Of course, it’s not always this easy- there are the blow ups and not so easy parts too… but I’m just in shock how well she has been doing. Keep in mind this is the first time she’s ever seen or been introduced to a tarp. She has SUCH a good mind 😍 Liz is approximately 4 years now and just beginning her journey to start riding. I couldn’t be more happy about how she’s progressing! Not to mention all the work that Melissa has been putting in to make this happen. I can’t wait to see where this girl is another month down the road 🥰

Verdun has officially started halter training! He’s growing up so fast and turning into such a handsome little colt 🥹 Pearl (his mom) was starting to lose some weight, and she also has some suspicious bumps on her rear end we are suspecting may be cancerous- so we also went ahead and decide to wean Verdun. He was already eating mare and foal feed as well as alfalfa REALLY well, so it was definitely time. I didn’t want him nursing off mom anymore or dragging her body condition back down. Especially after it took so long to get her to the current condition she is in 💖 I wanted to do a slow weaning from across the fence with him and mom… but honestly, moving him to a different location was in the best interest of both him and his mom, Pearl. We are happy campers and everyone has settled in nicely! LOOK at how well this sweet boy already leads!!! He is a handful, but he is SO smart. I can’t wait to see what the future holds. Also a big thanks to Melissa for working with this spicy little turkey as he continues to grow and blossom 💙

I think baby Bunny has figured out butt scathes! What do yall think 😂 also, ignore all the mud. We got more rain in a few days then we do all year 💀 #AAHRS #rescue #horse #rescuehorse #rescuedismyfavoritebreed #foal #foalsof2024 #horselove #foal
