length of time with SAFE: 5 months
ADOPTED by Rebecca R and family 2017 now is looking for a new light riding family!
Cosmo and his five herd mates were surrendered to SAFE by their owner, who was no longer physically or financially able to properly care for them. The horses were in decent weight but had not had farrier or dental care in some time. Cosmo’s x‑rays taken at SAFE were clean — he was sound and could remain so with proper hoof care. We had been told that Cosmo was well broke, so we had Joel Conner work with him when he was here for a clinic in September. Cosmo did great but there were a few holes in the training that we wanted Joel to help us clean up. Cosmo spent a short 3‑week training refresher with Joel and returned to us ready to find a new home. Rebecca R was searching for a horse that would be safe around her kids and would be a good fit with her other horse, Cooper. Turns out Cosmo fit the bill perfectly! The girls are getting older, and Cosmo isn’t getting ridden much, so the family is looking to find a very special family who would like to enjoy his gentle nature. Reach out to his current owner Rebecca to learn more about him and schedule a showing: reroper@yahoo.com or (206) 713‑0197.

We are always so pleasantly surprised when a nice horse like Cosmo comes into Safe Harbor. He is gentle to handle and he takes everything we ask of him in stride. Joel put a first ride on him for us in the September and while things went well there were a few training…

Farrier day for the new horses
Farrier Daphne Jones came out today to work on the badly neglected hooves of our new horses. She was able to trim all of them, except for Angel, who was very reluctant to have her hind feet handled. Daphne worked with her to get her more accustomed to having her hinds…
