Zan Update from Jan 9 2011

I liked Zan so much I called the trainer to see if she’d come down and give me a lesson today. While Zan was a bit of a nut on the lunge line yesterday (bucking and racing around before settling in) today she gave me a quiet, rythmic trot instead. I’ve been told this…

Lexi Update from Jan 9 2011

I just thought I’d update Lexi’s thread. She’s a volunteer favorite. She’s so sweet and easy to handle. It seems like she’s always out getting groomed or loved on. I rode her a few times last fall in anticipation of her being looked at by a potential adopter (and of…

Dexter Update from Jan 8 2011

I’m sad to report that Dexter is back at SAFE. While I like to hang out with him- I was really hoping to never see his cute face again. He was a very good boy for his potential adopter for about 2 months and then he had some behavioral issues and was returned. It…

Here are some lovely photos of Lola and Bubbles taken by Karen Wegehenkel this fall. This photo shoot included photos of Sampson and Lucky too. All of the photos can be viewed by visiting Karen Wegehenkel’s website.

Honeycutt Update from June 9 2010

We were worried that Honeycutt might have troubles adjusting to his new foster home, as change is hard for him as he is such a worried, timid horse. We needn’t have been concerned, he has settled in just fine. 🙂

Training Update: Annabelle

Annabelle is getting settled into the routine at Safe Harbor Stables. For the first week she was a bit nervous when other horses where being moves around from turnout or to the arena. She also would start calling and running even if the horse across from her went out…

Training & Heath Update: Sapphire

Since last fall, our “Arabian Gem” Sapphire has had 3 separate mild colic episodes. The first two were easily managed with pain reliever, walking and monitoring. The most recent event, at the end of March, required an emergency vet call to get her feeling better.…

Training Update: Einstein

Einstein is a true smarty-pants! We have introduced tack and a rider’s weight, taking things slowly as he still has some weight and muscle to gain over his back. He has been an absolute gem about everything. He is getting used to the flag work and connects very well…

May 21st is “Give Your Former Stallion a Bath” Day

Here’s Dr Hannah, teaching Anderson the joys of bathing on a warm day in late Spring! This was a great learning moment for our former wild stallion…and as it turned out, a learning moment for all of us as well. Although Anderson had been checked carefully for lice…

Training Update: Karma

It has been a few weeks of firsts for Karma: her first time jumping all the way into the trailer, her first trail ride as a SAFE horse, and her very first show! Trailer loading has been a challenge for Karma since the day we picked her up but we have had an amazing…

Stella!!!!!!!

Baby girl is back at Safe Harbor! I would say that we missed her but I’m not sure the neighbors were too happy she was home. She spent the first two days (and nights) calling for her bestie Jewel, who was stalled in the other barn. It was a bit of an adjustment being…
