Baxter Photo Gallery — Day of Seizure
Here are photos taken of Baxter just following his seizure. These photos were taken at the Skagit County Fairgrounds, where we met Skagit County Animal Control officer, Emily Diaz, and the vet who initially examined the seized horses.
Baxter History & Background
Baxter is a black and white pinto gelding that was awarded to SAFE after being seized by Skagit County Animal Control on December 4, 2009. Skagit County had already seized one horse from this person in April 2008 but apparently sometime later that summer, he decided…

Here are a series of pictures that show what Dexter looked like when he was taken away from his owner in April 2009:
Aiden Update from Nov 19 2009
I’m Aiden’s current foster mom, and he is doing quite well. I’ve been working with him a 2–3 days a week, and what a quick study he is! He now tolerates plastic bags whipping around him, accepts a bridle path clip with my cordless clippers, yields hind and…
Deeds Update from Nov 15 2009
From Kate, his former adopter: Deeds spends the majority of his day in pasture turnout. He is happiest with another horse and has been pastured with both sexes, young and old, big and small. He generally has a pretty mellow, get-along, kind of attitude towards his…
Annie Update from Nov 14 2009
I rode Annie in a lesson with Andrea Lucianna and she was sooo good!! She is a bit of a spaz in the crossties, walking all over and she pulled back once; but once you get on she is all business. We w/t/c both directions and worked on getting her to lengthen, which she…
Summer Update from Nov 7 2009
I wanted to give everyone a quick update on Summer. We’ve been fostering Summer for the last six weeks and she’s doing really well. We lost our wonderful 29 year old TWH mare, Abby, in mid September, which left our Mac as an “only” horse. Mac is 30, and he’d never…
Deeds Update from Nov 4 2009
Due to financial issues, life changes and an upcoming move, Deeds is looking for a new home. SAFE will be helping his current adopter find him a new home from his current location in Bellingham. If he does not find a home by spring, he will need to be returned to SAFE.

A home for Savannah

Saving Summer
We said goodbye to a dear old friend this week. Surrounded by adoring friends, at the farm she’s called home for the past few years, Summer was humanely euthanized. Summer’s health had been slowly failing over the past six months or so, and she was starting to have a…
A Big Day for Owen
Today was full of new experiences for our man Owen. As you know, Owen is a stallion, and it has always been our intention to change him into a happy gelding, as we do with all intact male horses that end up in our rescue program. When we agreed to take Owen in, we…
Fun with Oscar!
