Edward Back at SAFE
As part of our commitment to a lifetime of safety, we are here to support our alumni horses and their owners whenever needed. It is with sadness and a very heavy heart that Edward’s adopter has asked us to welcome him back to SAFE. Shortly after adopting him, she…
Alumni Update: Misty
Sarah is still taking riding lessons with Misty. Misty is also used as a lesson horse by two girls that ride her consistently. Misty is adored by everyone that comes in contact with her. She is such a wonderful horse and has a great temperament.
Alumni Update: Po & Ladigo — BFFs
Po and Ladigo, in addition to being near twins in appearance, are also inseparable. Po, who was always playing second fiddle to the large and in charge Bridgit, has found his voice with his new buddy, and is the head mini in charge! He is coming out of his shell more…
Sienna is Adopted!
We are thrilled to share that after 8 years at SAFE, our sweet Sienna has found a family to call her own! Debbie and Peter reached out shortly after the heartbreaking loss of their beloved SAFE alum, Pomme. Despite their dedicated care, Cushing’s eventually took its…
Alumni Update: Stevie (Chinook)
Diana and Stevie, now Chinook, go riding four times a week. They ride indoors and outdoors plus trailer out once a week. They also participate in equitation clinics.
Alumni Update: Roscoe
Roscoe is doing great — happy, healthy, sound, and Kasey’s steady Eddie boy! Kasey absolutely adores Roscoe and treats him like the #1 he is! While Kasey was recovering from an injury, Roscoe lived a quiet life with the herd. Once she recovered, even after several…

Alvaro is a Growing Guy
Horses play musical paddocks at SAFE on a regular basis (the one difference being that no one is ever left ‘out’) so it’s not uncommon to have the sensation of ‘you’re not where I left you’ when traversing the property. This sensation is compounded when we have…
Alumni Update: River
River is now 18 years old and is living the best life at Wendy’s farm of 38 years. Wendy and River had great success at first level dressage, but Wendy recognized that River wasn’t up to move up the levels so she happily listened and now they enjoy trail riding and…
Alumni Update: Bowie
We are excited to provide an update on a very special horse that has been such a huge blessing in so many lives since his adoption from SAFE in January of 2019. As you might remember, Bowie found a new home with his current owner, Pat, where he was able to truly…
Alumni Update: Pyrrha (Zelda) and Valentine
Pyrrha (Zelda) is close to 30 years old now. She is looking her age but her weight is very good, her eyes are happy and she moves well. She is a happy and lucky horse! Valentine looks great and is very social! She is not ridden but has a lot of interaction with people…
Oh Tiva my Tiva
Tiva is an mature mare. An adult. That’s what someone who met her for the first time observed about her recently, and the statement did a great job of encapsulating so much of who she is as a horse. Like most adults, Tiva values clarity of communication. In work,…
Alumni Update: Gabby
Gabby the mule is absolutely thriving in Trisha’s wonderful care. The barn is impeccably maintained, the paddocks are spotless, and the wide-open pastures — complete with a track system — give the herd space to roam and truly be horses. Gabby is confident, curious,…
Companion Horse Ranger
Much of our work here at SAFE involves flexibility and the ability to pivot. A tree comes down in the night and wipes the to-do list of everything but fixing fence. A call from animal control has us playing musical paddocks to make room for new arrivals. Unexpected…
