Corona Update Feb 13 2011
by Bonnie Hammond | Feb 14, 2011 | Corona
Quick update on Corona — he is doing very well, on antibiotics now and the vet reports he is very tolerant for his twice-daily chlorahexadine scrubs. She does feel bad for him as he is probably in some amount of discomfort, but she has not felt comfortable giving him…
Lucky Update — Feb. 13, 2011
by Bonnie Hammond | Feb 14, 2011 | Bucky B Lucky
We also had one of our newer volunteers Victoria ride Lucky for the first time in a lesson. Lucky however, was having a “Thoroughbred day” — his brain was simply not in the game today and he was fidgety, agitated, and unable to concentrate. Lunging settled him…
Annie and Zanadu Update — Feb 13, 2011
by Bonnie Hammond | Feb 14, 2011 | Annie, Zanadu
Today was lesson day at the farm today. We had a potential adopter come out to watch Zanadu and Sara in her lesson today. I missed the lesson but Sara reported Zanadu did great today, no bucking or kicking out in the canter at all today and the trainer set up trot…
Charmeon Update — Feb 12, 2011
by Bonnie Hammond | Feb 12, 2011 | Charmeon
Charmeon’s owner has hired a trainer to start her under saddle. She sent us this photo. Looks like she is doing well! Also, I double checked her height as she looks much taller than 15h in the photo. She is 16 hands and 1800 lbs!

Another busy day at SAFE! This morning Allison, one of our volunteers and myself hauled Annie and Zanadu up to the Evergreen Fairgrounds in Monroe where they participated in an event for the Snohomish County 4H called Equine-O-Rama. Dr. Hannah Evergreen gave a talk…
Training Update on Baxter & Delilah — Feb 12 2011
by Bonnie Hammond | Feb 12, 2011 | Baxter, Delilah
Delilah and Baxter both went on trail rides this week at the Pilchuck Tree Farm! Both did great, Delilah was relaxed and on a loose rein and Baxter was also extremely good. Sara was able to ride him in a lesson on Thursday, he gave her one buck at the canter but she…
Tia Update Feb 12 2001
by Bonnie Hammond | Feb 12, 2011 | Tia
Tia seems to have settled down and is no longer agitated as long as she is in her stall, but her left eye is still bothering her quite a bit and very swollen and oozing. She may have banged it during her bout of anxiety, or its possible she is having a uveitis…
Corona Update Feb 12 2011
by Bonnie Hammond | Feb 12, 2011 | Corona
Corona is doing very well! Dr. Hannah has spoken to the vet who saw him earlier this week and she feels like the injury will be relatively minor once we get the infection under control. We’ve been contacted by three people who knew Corona back when he lived in…
Tia Update — Feb. 11, 2011
by Bonnie Hammond | Feb 11, 2011 | Tia
Just a quick update on Tia. This morning she was again very agitated when the barn crew arrived and once again was given Ace to settle her down, which only brought her anxiety level down from about an 8 or a 9 to maybe a 5. Tia’s bloodwork came back and was somewhat…

Yesterday was an extremely busy day at SAFE! First of all, we have the new horse Corona who came in late yesterday afternoon. Dr. Hannah finally got a chance to look at him last night. She has not yet spoke to the vet who treated him previously (hopefully will do…
