Fun with Jazzy & Joker
New photos of our little mini pair, Jazzy and Joker! We had one of our younger volunteers take them for a little spin this weekend (yes, I know she’s a little too big for them, we were just testing them out). They are indeed broke to ride, and so very cute! Now…

Scammers make an unsuccessful attempt to defraud SAFE
What nonprofit organization doesn’t dream of getting a major donation out of the blue, or hope that one day a wealthy philanthropist will hear of their good work and write them a big check? SAFE is a growing horse rescue with a pretty long wish list, filled with…
Professor Anakin Gives Back
We are preparing for Anakin’s release from the hospital on Wednesday, getting his feed delivered, getting his stall ready, and preparing for transport. In the meantime, we were delighted to find out that Anakin is already giving back to the horse community! We…
Getting to know Bean
New horses always take time settling into their new lives as SAFE horses. In the first few weeks they’re here, we get to know their personalities, what they like, what they don’t like. We start to dream of what kind of home will be the perfect match. Bean had been a…
The call we’ve been waiting for…
Anakin Update: Jan 13 2016
