Nadia Update — Feb. 28, 2011

I’ve been playing phone tag with our trainer, but I caught her for a few minutes this morning and she gave me a quick update on Nadia.  Their farm in Stanwood has been buried in 3 feet of snow (and still snowing today! thank goodness we just have rain here now) and…

Corona Update Feb 27 2011

I was at NWESC today dropping off our two new horses and took the opportunity to get some updated photos of Corona.  He is looking so much better!  He has gained a considerable amount of weight already, his feet look much better, and his injury is looking considerably…

New Intakes — Feb 27 2011

SAFE has taken in two senior horses (25+) surrendered tonight to King County Animal Control (we were told the mare is 37, the gelding is 33, but Dr. Evergreen thinks they are not quite that old, but definitely over 25). They are currently in SAFE’s care and are being…

Baxter — Pending Adoption!

Cross your hooves that Baxter has a new home!  Here he is today with his potential mom-to-be.  She does a great job with him!

Greta Update — Feb 23, 2011

Update from our volunteer who did a site visit on Greta this year: Greta seems happy, when I showed up she just sort of stared at me and didn’t want to come over to say hi. When her mom showed up she got really happy and came over to her mom who haltered her. Her mom…

Charmeon Update — Feb 21, 2011

This beautiful video was sent to us from the trainer who has been working with Char.  She has had about 5 rides so far (in both western and english tack) and seems to be doing an excellent job with her!  I love the musicā€¦ā€œbeautiful, beautifulā€, is certainly what I…

Lexi — Adopted!

Today, Lexi went off on her next adventure in life!  Congratulations to Cindy G. of Lynnwood, WA!  We were sad, but also so happy, to see her finally find her forever home.  Cindy is SO happy to bring Lexi home! Lexi has a long history as a SAFE…

Today was a beautiful day, the sun was shining, the air was crisp and clean, and horses were enjoying the weather as well.  Today, Lexi went off on her next adventure in life!  We were sad to say goodbye, but so happy to see her finally find her forever home. Cindy…

Training Update: Khianna

  We have a wonderful group of volunteer riders at SAFE who not only make my life as the Operations Director easier but also are a vital asset to the horse’s preparation for adoption. The volunteers help with everything from turnout, hand walking injured horses,…

When can we play with Bridgit again?

We have been patiently waiting to start working with Bridgit again….She ā€œpopped a splintā€ on her left front a few weeks ago and we have been waiting for the heat and swelling to go down. Meanwhile the little munchkin has been enjoying long turnouts next to her buddy…

Handsome Ben!

Volunteer Jessica Farren was out to the stables last week and took some beautiful photos of Ben and volunteer Ann working in the arena. We also had a few others with Ben and Terry in the arena a few weeks ago. He is truly a stunning boy and his looking healthy and…

Checking in with Annabelle

If Annabelle could tell us all the stories of her life, I think we would all have a good long cry and then gather ourselves up and look to the future. She is a tough girl who has spent a good part of her life fighting for her safety. Annabelle has a deep soul and we…

Anderson is making great progress!

Anderson is doing excellent in training with Darik. He has spent some time relaxing into being a good gelding and getting used to the life as a domestic horse. We got to spend some time with him and watch Darik work him in the arena. He still has a cautious nature but…

Health Update: Phoenix

We wanted let everyone know where things are currently with Phoenix’s health and lameness status. After trying a few different shoeing options over the last few months, some that helped but some that didn’t, we decided to ask Dr. Devine from Pilchuck come out to take…
