My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

If you are interested in adopting this horse, please submit an Adoption Inquiry via AAE's website; No texts please: https://www.allaboutequine.org/how-to-adopt.html. Adoption fee subject to change based on training; see website for all current information.

Miles, a three year old reservation mustang and little stud colt, came to AAE with Monroe through collaboration with another organization at the end of December 2023. Miles and Monroe had been with a foster family who didn’t have much experience with mustangs. They were unhandled, and as a result, they hadn’t had any vet or had dental care, hoof care, vaccines. They had no adoption interest, they weren’t making any forward progress with gentling, and there wasn’t another foster who could take them. The organization approached AAE with a request to transfer. Thankfully, we had several adoptions at the end of the year, which gave us the opportunity to help these two youngsters.

Miles is a little gem! He is absolutely adorable! He is curious, level-headed, and very willing. After quarantine and once the heavy rains let up, we had a chance to spend some quality time with this sweet guy to earn his trust. It didn't take long before he was halterable, and he could lead. He's willing to try what's asked of him. He's approachable, gives his feet willingly, and he approaches for interaction. He's come a really long way in a short time! He was dewormed, and he had his spa day at the end of February (dental, front hoof trim, vaccines, and microchip). His hind hooves will be trimmed next farrier visit. Miles has been gelded, and his confidence and willingness is growing by the day.

Miles is available for adoption, and he is looking for a home with a person experienced with mustangs so he can continue his learning and progress as he matures. Miles is current with hoof and dental care, vaccines, and deworming, and he has a microchip.

In general, there is a lot of activity around AAE including foot traffic in and out of paddock/pasture areas, mucking with wheelbarrows, grooming and care activities, and weekly farrier visits. There are various resident animals, as well as various wildlife in and around paddock/pasture areas. AAE is on a busy road with high speed vehicles, trucks, and sirens. Tractors and trucks are used in and around pasture/paddock areas. Therefore, horses at AAE are accustomed to a more active environment as opposed to a quiet/sterile environment.
