Bridget originally came to SAFE in 2012, surrendered to SAFE along with another pinto filly named Jewel. Bridget always had the sweetest disposition and absolutely people, and even 13 years later, she is still one of the most interactive and affectionate mares you’ll ever meet. Bridget has always been a quick study, learning basic skills, like leading, trailer loading, standing for the farrier, bathing, and clipping before completing 60 days of professional training.

Her adopter rode her extensively, and always had wonderful updates for us about Bridget and her life. However, In 2025, circumstances unfortunately changed and Bridget is now back at SAFE and looking for a new family.
