Thank you…to whom??
An adorable electric weed eater mysteriously appeared at SAFE Harbor Stables last week. It is lightweight, quiet, and very efficient. Here are some before and after pictures…it will be so nice to have this little helper to keep the areas close to the barn neatly…
Misty Training Update
Here’s an update on Misty from our trainer, Heather Roe: What can I say about Misty? This little mare is a super star! She has now been to two shows where she won her classes both times and has was steady and unflappable both times. Her training is progressing right…
Aiden Training Update
Aiden is such a good boy! His newest skill is walk/canter transitions and although he does not always give the right lead, the transitions themselves are getting more and more consistent. He is very responsive to seat and leg aids and is a very fun and steady ride. He…
Kat Update!
Kat has been in regular work for just over a month and so far she is a very steady and level headed mare at the walk and trot. She was ridden by one of our novice riders at the SAFE show and did great! Her canter work has proven to be a bit of a challenge as she does…
Louie Training Update
Louie is back in regular work some time off for some chiropractic issues. He is feeling significantly better under saddle and is now willing to bend, work laterally and stretch long and low. His canter work is still developing but he is now able to sit down and use…
Lola Training Update
Lola is now consistently working over small jumps and was shown over fences at the SAFE show, where she placed 3rd. She has proven to be a bold and willing jumper and I think the next step is to try her over some cross country jumps. She has been steadily improving in…
A visit with Char
SAFE volunteer Allison visited Charmeon up at Half Trak Farm and got to take her for a spin. She reports that Char is pretty fun to ride although she’s still a bit green and lacks confidence. But she’s forward and sweet, and loves to hear that she’s a good girl.…

New friends: Annabelle and her Goats!
Annabelle has been fostered out at Jackie’s for 9 months and recently the other horses Sophie and Emmy moved back to Safe Harbor for training leaving Annabelle without a horse mate. While the neighbor horses are always in sight we weren’t sure how happy Annabelle…
Training update: Anderson
Anderson is one BIG love bug! If he could, I believe he would come into the house and snuggle up on the couch with me. This big puppy has a giant heart. It’s been a joy to be around him during his journey to becoming a riding horse. He has a very smart and strong…
Adoption Announcement: Mesquite!
We are so pleased to announce that Mesquite has been adopted! This handsome and talented boy has truly made an amazing transformation. Less than eight months since arriving at SAFE as an unstarted stallion, Mesquite is now a well-adjusted good citizen with loads of…
Foster Update: Rocky
Update from Rocky’s foster mom Kellie: Just wanted to let you know that Rocky is still doing very good. He is eating most of his meds (7/8th???) and I’m seeing only a few hay “balls” with the orchard grass hay. I think it is softer for him to chew. His weight is…
Foster Update: Banjo and Finn
Here are some great photos of Finn and Banjo (aka “Joey”) and their foster parents Carrie and Derek. They are taking wonderful care of these two boys. We are so lucky to have wonderful fosters to care for and love our companion horses! [gallery link=“file”…
