Ask and Ye Shall Receive: the Story of Redmond
Jaime & I went to the Yakima feedlot in Oct 2005 to help CBER evaluate a large group of new horses. Because there were so many horses at the lot, CBER had to focus on the sound, rideable horses that would be the easiest to find home for. There was a chestnut…
Tia Dec 1 2010
Tia is doing well, she seems stocked up on her right hind but she doesn’t favor it or move lame on it. I put her in the arena for a bit last night with Slam and Vanna and she rolled and ran and bucked with the two of them. She is very vocal and has quite a distictive…
Tia Oct 28 2010
Tia had a recheck today on her eyes and they look much better. The ulcer in her right eye is now healed and there is no more discharge out of either eye. The eye specialist does not feel that she is in any discomfort in the blind eye and no further action is needed,…
Tia Oct 25 2010
Caiti and I worked on her rain rot and gave her a thorough grooming complete with a pretty braided tail over the weekend. She tied in the stall very well and was practically falling asleep on us as we groomed her and showed us her funny face as we scratched all her…
Tia Update from Oct 21 2010
Tia’s fecal came back and she was LOADED with worms. 503 Strongyle ova per gram! Even the vet was surprised. I wormed her today with just a half-dose of Ivermectin and am hoping that she doesn’t get sick from the die-off. In a week she will get dosed again with a full…
Tia Photos from Oct 19 2010
Here are some photos. I think some of these pictures really capture her spirit. She is obviously thrilled to be in the company of other horses and seems very happy to be where she is now. Hopefully she is on her way to feeling better as well. [gallery link=“file”…
Tia Background & History — Aug 19 2010
Tia was brought to our attention by one of our volunteers, who has been involved in Animal Rescue efforts for some time. She was located in Skokomish, on an Indian Reservation near Shelton. There is no Animal Control in that area, but fortunately the horse was bad…

Lexi Update from Aug 8 2010
I just had to post how proud I am of Lexi. She did GREAT for me at the show, especially considering I’d only started working with her the previous week and she’d had a month or two off before that. Anyway, for the record she won the dressage Intro A & B classes as…
Lexi Update from Aug 4 2010
Update from foster mom: Lexi is doing well and we’re going to try all sorts of classes at the show Saturday (dressage, english, western, trail — all walk/trot). She’s a good all arounder. I’ve been working with her lightly almost daily since I picked her up last week…
Lexi Update from July 27 2010
Lexi hasn’t had much done with her the last few months due to lack of volunteers to ride her, and she has gotten a bit fat and sassy. Last night she was ridden by Amy, who previously fostered Whisper and Aiden, and then Amy took her home to work with her for the next…
Lexi Update from Feb 13 2010
Lexi is available for adoption again! The past few months she has been ridden by an 11 year old girl and has proved herself to be safe and quiet. We took her back because of some concerns that the foster home was not able to handle her strict farrier routine and she…
