Chester - unfit for sale He
was too thin to go thru sale so he was pulled and the owner surrendered
him to the rescue. This is how it is SUPPOSED to happen when an ill,
injured, or neglected horse shows up at auction. Not sure of his age, he is an older gelding. No charges were brought up against the owner because they were consigning other horses that were in good flesh so it appeared it wasn't a neglect case, maybe just a specific health issue with this horse. AC4H has taken him in and he will not be able to be adopted out right away until he gains weight and is examined for any health problems. We are asking for donations to help with his care. He will need vetting, senior feed, and special supplements until he gains weight. Anything you can send is greatly appreciated. This boy sure needs it! Guestmation of cost - $50.00 haul fee to get him out today. $350.00/30 days at Doc's, Vaccines $66.00, coggins $20.00, Trim $45.00, deworming powerpack depends on cost of where we can get it lol, Teeth if dremel is needed $150.00 if not then estimate $75.00 so around $700.00 for the first month just go get him up to date and quarantinedPlease paypal to christy@ac4h.com and mark for Chester the paint. THANK YOU!http://www.ac4h.com/ac4hdonate.htm Donations received thank you!; Bonnie $65.00, Connie $100.00, Dennis $25.00, Lisa $12.00, Katherine $25.00, Maryanne $50.00, Betsey $50.00, Victoria $15.00, Lisa $12.00, Debbie 25.00, Lisa $12.00, Joanna $28.50, Patrick $5.00, Shawn $400.00 $824.50 raised-and $700 is our goal it's our expenses for his first 30 days.

Jennifer- Bay 04 Mare out of Thrifty Jennifer
- one of the first victims that was made public and assisted her
heardmates.
See AC4H
Media
Jennifer has a "head tilt" which is undiagnosed but doesn't cause her any problems. The head tilt isn't noticeable when she is running or when grazing/eating nor does she exhibit neurological symptoms. She is sound at walk, trot and canter. Suitable for companion or to train for trails. She wasn't halter broke when she arrived but is now halter broke, ties, leads and loads. She didn't pick up her feet initially but we are working with her on that.

Snuffy - Red dunn colt - gelding confirmed
by testosterone blood test - Came to AC4H as
Unfit for sale through auction approx 2 yr old pony size he is now
halter broke and people friendly but still needs work He has the appearance of possibly being a Keiger
mustang We would appreciate financial assistance with him as this enables us to take in the horses that are not able to go through the sale and take care of them without rewarding the owners/consignors financially. Snuffy's blood test results came back for testosterone he is a gelding not a colt- wahoo! He will be moved from isolation (so no breeding) to start integrating with the horses at main farm.

Tumbleweed - QH gelding early late
teens or early 20's. I was at an auction when someone who saw
me contacted AC4H and my owner offered to let me go $0 fee to the
rescue and NOT go through the auction. Blood was pulled and
everything looks good, the dentist said my teeth look good and the
farrier trimmed my hooves. Now that he is up to weight
evaluations show a well trained western horse who neck reins may
have been used for team penning or roping - not a raw beginner horse
and doesn't ride or act like 20 yr old. Responsive and lots of
fun but needs someone who knows how to ride.

| Sentimental Lisa (I13950), she has a really great personality, acted like someones pet at sometime..... Sentimental Lisa & Spiritual Calling were owned by Michael Gill and trained by Murray Rojas Currently at her foster home she is enjoying trail rides :>) Note: Murray has reported that she will be filing a civil suit against party who signed agreement for the three horses. If not for AC4H going to broker lots and auctions these three probably would have slipped through the cracks. No funds were received or offered from Michael Gill or Murray Rojas for the saves conducted by AC4H and supporters. To date Murray Rojas has not filed a civil suit for the reportedly broken contract. There were a total of 3 horses involved that went right to auction and sold to slaughter the day the contract was signed.

Gypsy cob pony gelding Tolkien
is sired by an imported gypsy cob stallion SMHC's Gypsy King and out of
a mare SMHC's Molly One who is 1/2 shetland and 1/2 haflinger.
Foaled 4-02-04. Application for registration. In
doing research we found him on this website
http://www.smhc.com/kingstolkien.html. We have contacted them to
let them know. Apparently he was dispersed with a band of
broodmares.
Lara my daughter trained Tolkien he now does a wonderful walk, trot and canter and Selina is able to ride him English, Western or bareback. Will go through water and is a wonderful pony. This pony is very athletic and willing he would make a phenominal gaming pony. Breeders - please protect your horses with an agreement. You put them on the ground you have a responsibility to keep them safe. When your horse or breed shows up at kill pen - because it wasn't protected.... it originated with you and followed what you put into motion.

*Reg. QH mare foaled 2007 Sweet Snazy Tinker
#4960370 out of Leo's Snazzy Tinker
and Sweet Glo Jr. which goes back to Two Eyed Jack take a look at her
pedigree on
more pictures page.
Snazzy was saved a couple years ago from
a killer sale where mini's and young horses frequently ship to
slaughter. She was slaughter bound and not people friendly. She
has a current coggins, up to date, see's farrier on regular basis
and has been bathed and has worked with loading and unloading. She
is swaybacked and although it hasn't worsened we do not expect it to
get better. We do stomach exercises with her touch her belly and
she arches her back but even these exercises are not going to
correct the issue.
She is a companion. She could possibly
be taught to drive but we do not think she will be able to be a
riding horse.

Patti - Jenny donkey helped by
donations through AC4H. Patti is a wonderful standard donkey mare or
jenny who loves kids and attention super gentle and loveable. She has a huge personality and is a
great companion and would be a great addition to any family.
She gave birth to Sadie Mae a jenny who was the first long ear born at AC4H on 7-27. We believe Sadie Mae's sire was a mammoth donkey. Unfortunately Sadie Mae injured herself -presented by pointing her left hind toe forward - no trauma marks, swelling or heat presented - full x-rays were done even on her other side to compare growth plates. x-rays were clean palpation showed nothing and it looked like a soft tissue issue which should resolve in about a week or possibly an abscess although hoof when tested wasn't sensative... a week later with no improvement she was rechecked and a fracture in her pelvis was found. There were no treatment options. Sadie Mae was humanely laid to rest 10-8-09. We are devistated. RIP Sadie you will be always loved and never forgotten.

pressure and weigh so raw beginners are not a good match... so
much fun to ride and he will go wherever you point him... he does have
navicular its actually not the normal navicular its a bone growth off
the navicular - he can be used for light riding and or as a companion. Not for children or raw beginners... light riding or companion
