Alumni Update: Mesquite
Mesquite’s adopter Cory recently shared some thoughts on their relationship: Mesquite is ALL ARAB! A hot, opinionated, so extremely soft, Velcro, one-person horse. I love him more than anyone can know. I met and adopted him from SAFE as my friend when he was 11.…
Alumni Update: Remy
A SAFE Alumni volunteer recently visited with Remy and his adopter Jessica. Remy has been doing well. He and Soldier are companions together in hilly acreage, stalled briefly for grain; otherwise, live outside all summer. Stall will be available as needed when weather…
Sienna Under the Rainbow
As far as “things you’d hope to find under a rainbow” go, Sienna is right up there with a pot of gold. This mare is certainly a treasure! As SAFE’s current longest resident, Sienna is approaching 8 years with us. “From Feral to Friend” could be the title of her…
Mabel on the Move
Mabel went on her first walk outside the arena walls the other day, accompanied by Poppy, who was more than happy to show her around. Mabel has limited vision in her left eye, but you’d never know with how confidently she handles new experiences such as this. Mabel is…
Alumni Update: Stella

Jacob at Foster — Again!
After a brief reappearance at SAFE, Jacob was off to foster again, showing what an adaptable (and still adoptable) guy he can be! While not without his quirks, Jacob makes a good companion to have around. He is not particularly herd bound, and has a goofy personality.…
Venturo and Alvaro, New Friends!
Do you remember the feeling of being a kid and getting to hang out with your older cousins around the holidays, or being allowed to tag along with your older sibling? How cool you felt, how much fun you had? We have to imagine that’s how Venturo is feeling this week…
Alumni Update: Orion
An update from Roxanne from August 1st: I wanted to share some photos of Orion being the best boy at Rebecca Farm in Montana this year. He finished 8th in a pretty zesty competitive division, with no jump or time faults for the weekend!
Zuri is Adopted!
As an older mare with particular needs, we weren’t convinced that Zuri wouldn’t live out her days at SAFE. So we are even more over the moon (over Neptune, if you will) to announce Zuri’s adoption! Her adopter Laura came looking for a companion for her older gelding,…
Alumni Update: Jill
Here are a couple of recent photos of Jill. She is living a good life with adopter Anna.
