Pretty Savannah

Savannah is such a lovely mare. She’s probably never going to be comfortable enough to be someone’s riding horse — her fibrotic myopathy causes a lot of strain to her back and hips — but she’s got so much to offer someone as a companion and friend. Savannah is a horse who thrives on affection. In fact, we have to be sure that our volunteers give her plenty of attention, because she tends to get blue if she’s left to herself for too long. Fortunately she’s such a gentle soul, easy to handle and groom and lavish adoration upon, and she gives back as good as she gets. She’s just a darling. We would love to have someone adopt her who wants a horse that they can care for and groom and take for walks and just enjoy spending time with.

She’s especially responsive to kids who are comfortable around horses, which makes a lot of sense since she was cared for over the past few years by a teenager who absolutely adored her. We love having Savannah at SAFE, but this girl shouldn’t be living at a rescue, she needs a person of her own, somebody she can love. We have to believe that there is someone out there with room in their heart and their home for a horse like Savannah.

She’s waiting.
