Biscotti — April 27, 2009
New photos of Naughty Scotti. He is quite a bit bigger than Ariel now. He still has a long way to go to shed out his sheepskin rug but hair is coming off of him like no tomorrow. Ok, he is the most expressive horse with his upper lip I have ever known. He catches any kind of scent in the air and up it goes. Here he is RUNNING with his lip up…funny boy!
Annie Update from Apr 26 2009
We haven’t had any new photos of Annie in a while so I took a bunch today, just out in the pasture. She hasn’t had any work the last few weeks as Kyle has been her primary handler, and I’ve noticed she’s actually getting a bit tubby. She looks great actually, both her and Willow are very naturally slender even when they have a good cover over their ribs just from the way they are built and their…
Whisper Update — April 26, 2009
From Amy: I’m currently Whisper’s foster mom and here’s a quick update. She’s doing very well. Healthy, curious, and friendly. Very level-headed and just sensitive enough. I find her very easy to train. She was a bit pushy when she arrived a month or so ago, but is quickly becoming a well-behaved lady. She knows to give me room when I bring the food and she doesn’t apporach until I give the…
Dory Update — April 24, 2009
Sorry updates have been delayed on Dory, but here are some photos I took of her yesterday. She looks fantastic, all shedded out! And is it just me, or does she have more spots this year?
Update on Phoenix from his adopter
I have been very remiss in posting pictures of Phoenix — I am a horrible photographer!!! So with the cherry blossoms in bloom at Edensgate, I hired someone to take pictures of my beautiful boy. He hasn’t completely shedded out yet but I didn’t want to miss the cherry blossoms. Phoenix had a check-up with Dr. Hannah a week ago and he is awesome. Prepare to be inundated with Phoenix: [gallery…
Lola Update from Apr 9, 2009
Lola is shedding out the matts and will soon be so pretty. Daphine did her feet today and was impressed with the color she will be soon.
Annie Update from Apr 8 2009
Update from Kyle: I’ve been working with Annie over the last couple of months, though she has had the last couple of weeks mostly off. Annie is a special mare. For the right person, I have no doubt she will be a horse of a lifetime. When I first started working with Annie, I felt that she was still hypersensitive and needed a bit more discipline on the longe before I felt comfortable riding her…
Whisper Update — April 7, 2009
One of our supporters, Barbara, posted this update: So I took Sera for a ride today, to make up for her being “neglected” while I was on my month-long Europe/Egypt trip. As we were coming back down the trail, I noticed a familiar rear end through the trees.….
Sinatra Update from Apr 6 2009
“Sinatra the Wild White Stallion battles Benedetto for ultimate supremacy of the herd. Who will win? Only one stallion will survive this fierce battle to the death!” Oh wait, that was something I saw on Discovery channel the other night. My mistake. Benny wanted a good roll — that’s it. Sinatra bedeviled him — every time Benny got serious about rolling, Sinatra would reach down and nip him.…
Honeycutt Update from Apr 6, 2009
As part of the first SAFE art auction, HeART of the Horse, artist Amanda Koh graciously volunteered to create an original painting right at the event that would be auctioned off at the end of the evening’s festivities. Amanda set up her easel and paints, unfurled a large stretched canvas, and she set to work on her latest masterpiece. The end result was a painting entitled “Honeycutt Loves You…
Honeycutt Update from Apr 5, 2009
Sasha — Apr 3, 2009
Good Evening! So far so good with the saddle! Today is day three (I missed her first time with it as I was at work). Unfortunately I forgot the video camera, but I’ll remember for Monday’s lesson. She did very well at our lesson tonight–Amber lunged her under saddle, putting the stirrups down to see how she’d react with those hanging down. She also put the bridle on her (with the saddle) to see…
Aiden Update from Apr 2, 2009
Dr Hanna came out yesterday to give Aiden his shots and do his gelding. But Aiden had other ideas…one of his testacles hasn’t dropped. So he just got shots and an adjustment on his neck. We will make an other plan of attack in a few weeks. He was a very good boy. The weather was cold, snowy and awful. Better to wait for warmer weather anyway.
Whisper Update — April 1, 2009
From Monica Bretherton: I used some less lovely pictures I took on Friday of Whisper yesterday as a lead up to the art show: http://blog.seattlepi.com/horsebytes/archives/165379.asp Guess she’s not so sylph-like after all underneath that blanket!
Whisper Update — March 30, 2009
It was a sad day for me yesterday, as Bonnie and I hauled Whisper to her new foster home in Duvall. However, she’s healthy, and just needs a nice place to grow up and hang out and because she is so sweet and easy to handle she was the logical choice for our new foster home. I have to warn people, there is something about this little filly you can’t help but love. She’s a pushy little thing, but…
Sasha — Mar 27, 2009
Good Evening, all! I have some new pics to share of Sasha. Instead of working with the trainer twice a week, we changed to five times a week (M‑F) this month. She’s really come far since we changed the amount of time she is being worked. I think we’ll be trying the saddle next week! She’ll definitely start with lunging in her bridle to get her used to the bit. She’s also doing very well with…
Biscotti — Mar 23, 2009
Naughty little Scotti got his shots today. He was good for the shots, he’s just naughty in general. He’s got the funniest personality, but he’s a troublemaker!
Whisper Update — March 23, 2009
I need to take some new photos of Whisper! She is back at my farm right now before she moves to a new foster home in Duvall. She looks so amazing, hardly even recognizable from the mess she was in December. She is almost FAT now, she even has a little bubble butt! She is just the sweetest thing and is going to make someone a fantastic little horse. She is almost all the way shedded out and looks…
Summer Update from Mar 21 2009
Summer under saddle: Here’s a video as well. She did great with my son. He has never rode a horse all on his own I always lead him but they did great together. She is go good with the kids. Next time he rides I will use the small saddle and I might put a snaffle on but she did ok with the rope halter. I also had her feet done last Friday and she was wonderful…
Sinatra Update from Mar 19 2009
I found a little blue rubber ball in the pasture today. I picked it up and tossed it at Sinatra. He walked after it, picked it up, and dropped it. I picked it up again and tossed it a little ways from him. He walked after it, picked it up, and dropped it. I picked it up and tossed it again. He walked after it, picked it up, and dropped it. I think he’s part dog.

Holly Update — Mar 3, 2009
Here’s some an update and some photos of Holly that Merle sent me: Holly is 15hh now! She has had a saddle on as well as the bareback pad and is getting ready for her first ride soon. Isn’t she pretty! (proud mom!)
Aiden Update from Mar 3, 2009
Update from foster mom Merle: Aiden is now 357 pounds and a sweetie. He is on the power pak worming and got debugged yesterday too. He loves being petted. The rainrot patches are growing new hair and he is shedding. I think there’s going to be spots under there. Can’t wait to see what he looks like slick and healthy. He is too cute!
Whisper Update — March 3, 2009
I am so pleased to say that Whisper is now ready to be made available for adoption. She’s looking absolutely wonderful and is ready for that special home to take her home! She does still have a higher heart rate than normal and the vets do not know what the cause of it is…all her heart tests and bloodwork is normal and it is not arrythmia or a heart murmur it just beats fast. We don’t know if…
Lola Update from Mar 2, 2009
A Lola update… She now weighs 333 pounds and is looking much better than when she came here. She is on a power pak worming program right now and got debugged yesterday. She is shedding. Lola and Aiden play together a lot now and it’s fun to watch them.

Here are some nice shots of Honeycutt and his two friends, SAFE horses Benny and Sinatra.
Summer Update from Feb 17 2009
Summer getting her itchy spots scratched, she loves that!
Biscotti — Feb 16, 2009
One of the many reasons Scotti has earned the nickname “Naughty Scotti”. Can’t you just see it?
