Alumni Update: Tilt (Korra)
Julie shared a milestone for Korra on August 18th: Another milestone for little Korra. We hauled out to new trails to ride with our farrier and her partner. Korra is TINY compared to the other horses on the ride so we did a whole lotta trotting to keep up. She was a…
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,…

Thank You, Thornton Place!
Last week, we hosted a hardworking team of 6 individuals from Thornton Place Apartments for a work party. This team came ready to complete projects, and went above and beyond to help get some necessary work done around the barn. They weatherproofed our wooden…
Trailer Loading Artie
Artie Shaw has overcome many hurdles during his time at SAFE, but perhaps one of the most challenging items for him has been trailer loading — particularly with standing in a trailer with a divider. He could ride stock just fine, but to have a divider shut on him, or…
Tulip is Adopted!
Happy news — Tulip has been adopted! There is so much to love about Tulip, from her kind and easy-going demeanor to her copper-penny coat, and her to-be adopter felt the same way. She came out to meet Tulip several times, and spent lots of time learning about her. We…
