Alumni Update: Pyrrha (Zelda) and Valentine
Pyrrha (Zelda) is close to 30 years old now. She is looking her age but her weight is very good, her eyes are happy and she moves well. She is a happy and lucky horse! Valentine looks great and is very social! She is not ridden but has a lot of interaction with people…
Oh Tiva my Tiva
Tiva is an mature mare. An adult. That’s what someone who met her for the first time observed about her recently, and the statement did a great job of encapsulating so much of who she is as a horse. Like most adults, Tiva values clarity of communication. In work,…
Alumni Update: Gabby
Gabby the mule is absolutely thriving in Trisha’s wonderful care. The barn is impeccably maintained, the paddocks are spotless, and the wide-open pastures — complete with a track system — give the herd space to roam and truly be horses. Gabby is confident, curious,…
Companion Horse Ranger
Much of our work here at SAFE involves flexibility and the ability to pivot. A tree comes down in the night and wipes the to-do list of everything but fixing fence. A call from animal control has us playing musical paddocks to make room for new arrivals. Unexpected…
Veronica’s Sunny Days
Veronica is no stranger to our trail next door, having taken many a hand walk (and even a few rides) out on the 1.5 mile loop, but it was her first time back out this season. There were not one but two small dogs who unexpectedly rounded corners, but Veronica barely…
Alumni Update: Tess (Purty)

Alumni Update: Zoe
Zoe is living a great life with her adopter Eric, who just built a beautiful new barn for her and her pasture mate to move into very soon. Zoe and Eric rode a bit less last year but plan to pick up a more regular riding schedule in 2026.
Alumni Update: Caramel (Carra)
Carra is absolutely thriving in her forever home with Trisha! From her early days with the Fall City 40, she has transformed from a timid, unsure mare into a confident, affectionate girl who truly enjoys her life. Trisha provides the most beautiful, impeccably…
Alumni Update: River
River is now 18 years old and is living the best life at Wendy’s farm of 38 years. Wendy and River had great success at first level dressage, but Wendy recognized that River wasn’t up to move up the levels so she happily listened and now they enjoy trail riding and…
Alumni Update: Bowie
We are excited to provide an update on a very special horse that has been such a huge blessing in so many lives since his adoption from SAFE in January of 2019. As you might remember, Bowie found a new home with his current owner, Pat, where he was able to truly…
