Huck came to AAE with five other horses in June of 2025. A Nevada law enforcement agency contacted AAE in May 2025 about a group of six horses that may need placement. They were waiting for a judge's decision. Originally, a group of eight horses was seized by law enforcement due to neglect, and two of the horses were in such poor condition that they were euthanized. Eventually, the court's decision resulted in a transfer of ownership to the law enforcement agency. While awaiting the court's decision, the horses were housed and cared for at the Nevada Department of Corrections. While in their care, the horses were well fed, and we were told they gained weight and looked much better than when initially seized nearly three months prior.
When we met Huck, this handsome guy was fairly friendly, but uncertain whether he could trust humans. You could tell he was stressed, but he still wanted to trust. Initially, he evaded attempts to befriend and halter him. Eventually, he was willingly haltered and he was loaded onto the trailer, leading the way. His hooves were in poor condition and his eyes were weepy and irritated.
With time to settle in at AAE, this guy has gotten sweeter and sweeter! He's a gentle soul. He seems to understand the basics, and he's agreeable with hoof handling. As soon as he's done with quarantine, he'll have his much-needed spa day (dental and hoof care, vaccines, deworming, and a microchip). Once his body condition improves and he's evaluated further, he'll be available for adoption. At this time, he's very connected with his pal, River, and they may need to find a future home together. We'll see how they transition to a herd environment after quarantine. Stay tuned for more updates.
Huck is now current with dental and hoof care, vaccines, and deworming, and he has a microchip. He'll continue learning as he waits for his new family.
In general, there is a lot of activity around AAE, various resident animals, as well as various wildlife in and around paddock/pasture areas. AAE is on a busy road, therefore, horses at AAE are accustomed to a more active environment as opposed to a quiet/sterile environment.
