Dory Update — Dec 2, 2008
I went out and visited Dory on Saturday at her foster home (and brought a potential adopter to visit her as well). She is doing fabulous! She’s in with three other horses and they all cater to her as the baby — she sneaks her way in slowly to the other horses’ stalls…
Annie Update from Dec 2 2008
Last report I had from Andrea (which was on Saturday) is that Annie is doing well, but of course is much more reactive than Willow and Andrea is going slow with her…working on desensitizing, learning how to tie and have baths and all that. She’s tacked her up,…
Biscotti — Dec 2, 2008
Hope is up at Julie’s right now, and Scotti is still here with me. Kayo and Scotti are scheduled for their brain surgery on Saturday…then the fun begins of the twice daily forced exercise. *sigh* — I am not looking forward to that part, but am looking forward to the…
Summer Update from Dec 2 2008
Summer is doing really well, and I can see that she feels much better now that she is on the Cushings medications. Her weight is great and she’s a great babysitter to the weanlings. I’ve also seen her gallop across the pasture a couple of times, so she is bright and…
Sasha — Nov 29, 2008
From Megan: We moved Sasha to her new home at Pond-a-Luce‑A Stables today (about 2–3 mins from KCJ). She really enjoys the indoor arena and her new stall. She was excited and unsure of the trailer and it took a little longer than we’d hoped to get her loaded up. But,…
Annie Update from Nov 20 2008
Annie’s doing well. So far Andrea (the trainer) is just getting to know them and working on ground work. Willow is learning to lunge and have things blankets thrown over her back and such in preparation for the saddle. She’s doing more desensitizing work with Annie as…
Holly Update — Nov 19, 2008
From Holly’s adopter: Dr. Hannah was out today to “winterize” the horses. She gave Holly two thumbs up! We used the measure stick and Holly is now 14.2 1/2 hands tall. She has grown 1 1/2″ since I last measured her in Aug. Holly’s rump is still taller than her…
Annie Update from Nov 16 2008
Annie’s on her way up to training! Annie loaded into the trailer like a champ, but was very nervous when she couldn’t see Willow. She is still so insecure about her place in this world and hopefully her training at Half Trak Farm will…

A Request for Two Special Foster Homes
We currently have two SAFE horses in need of special foster homes: Strider and Jewel. Strider We have been incredibly blessed that Strider was able to spend the summer and fall at the home of our wonderful supporter Sheridan. Not to put too fine a point on it,…

Checking in with Eomer (who you might remember as Ego Afire!)
Just a quick update on Eomer, he is doing great. His sweet personality and riding demeanor has made him an excellent addition to the family. Andrea continues to come out and give us riding lessons, and she agrees that he’s a sweet little guy. When Jenny brought River…

Atticus Update
Atticus was released from the vet hospital last week and was transported to SAFE Harbor Stables. Six weeks post rescue, he is feeling a lot better…in fact the excitement of moving caused him to get quite amped up! He loaded well into the trailer, but was fairly…
