Whisper Update — January 2, 2009
From Laura: I went to see Whisper today at 11:30. She was standing up, and munching on her hay. The little Miss was very bright eyed, and met me at the stall door. (She must have known that I was accompanied by an apple.) After she ate her apple, she promptly…
Lola Update from Jan 1, 2009
Here’s photos of the possible Lola taken today. Sorry for the too-big halter, that’s a yearling halter, going to have to pull out the foal halters, she’s tiny! She’s very weak and wobbly on her hind end, and stocked up behind, as you can see: …

From Monica Bretherton: I too got to visit Ms. Whisper today. http://blog.seattlepi.nwsource.com/horsebytes/archives/158317.asp Forget champagne, New Year’s from now on will be about the sweet smell of alfalfa! Met, Whisper was up and eating, so there was no need for…

Whisper Update — Dec 30, 2008
Whisper was down again yesterday evening..not sure yet how she did overnight. Unfortunately, I threw my back out badly and am lying on the couch in misery after a very restless night. It’s my turn to do night watch tonight, but not sure how much help I am going to be.…

Misty at a ‘big girl barn’
An update on Misty from Lisa: Misty enjoyed a trail outing on New Years day, to our usual spot at Rattlesnake Lake/Snoqualmie valley trail. She was very well behaved on the trails, and didn’t balk once! Even though we arrived and parked among other horse trailers and…
Catching up with Zanadu!
It’s always a happy day when we get an update on Zanadu. We like to think that all of the adopted SAFE horses are loved, but when it comes to Zan, there is no question that she is adored, treasured, and beloved. Karen sent this update: Zan and I are doing…
January training notes: Sasha
Sasha seems to be showing signs of discomfort, especially tracking to the right on the lunge line. She does a lot of chewing and moving/opening her mouth…it almost looks as if she were sucking on her tongue or cheeks. She can’t hold the right lead canter without…
