Introducing Zoe and Piper

Jewel is finally home!
Simply the best part of our work at SAFE is seeing our horses placed in wonderful loving homes. It is what all the hours of volunteering and care is working towards. It is even more sweet when it is the placement of a long time herd member like Jewel. So many people…
Angel – It’s Been a Long Road…
