by Lily Leitkowski | Jul 18, 2025 | Quincy, Thistledown
SAFE’s promise to our alumni is that they will be safe, forever. Quincy’s adopter’s life circumstances had changed, and in the long term she would be unable to support Quincy and his herdmate, Thistledown. She asked for our help to rehome them — an incredibly...

Alvaro’s ball was temporarily lost, but this week it made a reappearance, much to his delight. This guy is perfecting his technique ahead of the world cup, running drills every day now. His athleticism is something else, and his energy supply never seems to end. He’s...

The last time Tiva saw her filly, Hayden, was when she was weaned from her. The pair had been living in a stall, and when Hayden left for her fresh start at Care Fur Life, we did not anticipate that the pair would ever be in the same space again. But life moves in...
by Lily Leitkowski | Jul 14, 2025 | Inky
When a cute guy like Inky comes through SAFE, we know that he won’t stick around for long. His petite stature coupled with his sweet personality made Inky a hot ticket item — as soon as he got up to date on his vet and farrier and passed his intake quarantine, the...

Back in 2021, Edward arrived at SAFE alongside his friends Jacob and Esme. The trio had been adopted from an orphan foal rescue by a family that was not equipped to care for them. On intake, Edward was suffering from equine asthma, and as a result was incredibly thin....
by Cathy Olson | Jul 10, 2025 | Jewel, Tilt
Julie updated us on how both Jewel and Tilt, now Korra, are doing. Jewel is 13 now! She is doing well but still has issues with being saddled. I have been able to saddle her on and off but I just get about half a dozen rides on her before she freaks out again....
by Lily Leitkowski | Jul 9, 2025 | Mateo
Since his gelding, Mateo has been waiting out some of his excess testosterone — or rather, we have been waiting for some of his studly behaviors to lose some of their potency. As a result, we have kept Mateo’s working sessions short and sweet, but this smart guy will...
by Lily Leitkowski | Jul 7, 2025 | Moshi
Tremendously exciting news: Moshi has been adopted! The match between Moshi and adopter Elle was about as perfect as it could be — they fit one another so well in so many ways, and when Elle told us she wanted to move forward, we couldn’t have been happier. Before her...
by Lily Leitkowski | Jul 5, 2025 | Mabel
Casey A recently put the first (at SAFE) rides on Mabel, and has been riding her since. Here’s what she has to say about how it’s going: “Mabel’s restart under saddle has been going quite smoothly. She is comfortable with a rider, though she does have some...
