Buckwheat Update from Sept 4 2007
update from Kathy on Buck and Shante: Hi, Just an update. We took the boys on a trail ride yesterday and today. Of course Shante was as mellow as usual, he did great, kept him at a slow pace though. Bucky on the other hand was his usual lets go and get there first. I…
Buckwheat Update from Aug 22 2007
We’re happy to announce that Buckie has been adopted. (well, I’m heartbroken, but happy nonetheless.) His new home is in Beavercreek, OR, with a wonderful couple — Kathy and Kevin– who were looking for a horse that their grandkids could ride. They met Buckie and…
Honeycutt Update from Aug 22, 2007
Honeycutt is doing very well, and I believe that he is happy living here. He is quite well behaved and easy to handle, and I do feel that I have gained at least some of his trust. I subject him to being touched and petted and patted on a daily basis and he’s quite…

Buckwheat Update from May 7 2007
Since it is downright warm out today and since he has FINALLY finished shedding, Mr Buck got a bath today! As with everything, he was good as gold, even though he’s no big fan of the hose. Look who’s gorgeous:
Buckwheat Update from Apr 6 2007
BUCKY UPDATE! First off, I’ve got to say that I have gotten really attached to the little bugger. He is sweet and gentle and quiet and just the funniest looking little guy…I’ll post some pictures as soon as my camera battery recharges. He has been shedding copious…
Buckwheat Update from Feb 1 2007
Had a chance to see what’s under that blanket today…he’s got a cute little bod! He stood very nicely to be groomed. I know there has been some concern about the possibility that Buck has Cushings, due to his long coat? Well I am happy to report that he is shedding…

Kai training update
SAFE trainer Brittney Stewart has this to say about Kai after riding him today: “If I was in the market for an event horse, I’d adopt him. He really tries. I didn’t even lunge him today and he was a SUPER good boy. I sat on him like a couch while I gave one of the…
Jewel Vet Visit
Report from trainer Brittney Stewart on her visit with Jewel today: Jewel was fine to handle. I did have a sharp growl at her when I went to halter her and I thought she was thinking of showing me her hindquarters. She submitted to haltering and was good about the…
First pasture turnout of the spring!
Chance demonstrates that multitasking means bucking and farting, while his friend Summer demonstrates her version of multitasking…laying down and eating.
Buckwheat — Rest in peace
We lost a dear old horse last night. Buckwheat, who came to SAFE back in 2007, had another episode of colic and was humanely euthanized. We don’t know exactly how old he was, but he was well into his 30s. He will be missed very much by his foster family and everyone…
