Why We Love Her: Tiva
Lily has been working with Tiva, and talks about one of the many reasons why she loves her — apart from her impeccable comedic timing, that is. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/duTqpJITVIQ
Hi, Barbie!
It’s Barb(ie)‘s world, and we’re just living in it! This little mare is full of big personality. She is adventurous, spunky, and brave. Batteries not included — or needed, she’s powered by hay! …
Welcome to the World, Paloma!
On May 9th, just as the clock rolled over, at 12:31AM, Frida welcomed her filly, Paloma Isabel into the world. Her birth was fast and without complications. We were then waiting for the 1–2‑3 guidelines: standing within one hour, nursing within two, and the placenta…
Wednesday and Venturo at Foster
Wednesday is raising her colt out at foster, where the daily grind looks like this. Oh, to be a young horse with the zoomies!
Three Months with our Silver Rose
This big-hearted mare has become comfortable with grooming, vet visits, and farrier care. She loves coming into her stall each night for dinner. In addition to all-day turnout in her paddock, a few times a week she gets to let loose and play in the arena. She’s an…
Getting to Know Eda
We’re excited about this lovely mare! Eda was the last member of the Valentine Herd to join us at SAFE. During our first interactions, she was cautious — testing her safety around us, reacting jumpily to touch, and showing signs of anxiety when she felt confused or…

The Thrills of Foal Watch
FRIDA FOAL WATCH kicked into full gear on Sunday night when we noticed some signs that she might be getting close. Being the overachievers that we are, we began checking on Frida every hour and logging our observations. It’s now Wednesday afternoon and no baby…
Alvaro Having a Ball
Alvaro’s ball was temporarily lost, but this week it made a reappearance, much to his delight. This guy is perfecting his technique ahead of the world cup, running drills every day now. His athleticism is something else, and his energy supply never seems to end. He’s…
A Mother’s… Love?
The last time Tiva saw her filly, Hayden, was when she was weaned from her. The pair had been living in a stall, and when Hayden left for her fresh start at Care Fur Life, we did not anticipate that the pair would ever be in the same space again. But life moves in…
Inky is Adopted!
When a cute guy like Inky comes through SAFE, we know that he won’t stick around for long. His petite stature coupled with his sweet personality made Inky a hot ticket item — as soon as he got up to date on his vet and farrier and passed his intake quarantine, the…
Alumni Update: Harley
Elouise and Harley continue to do horse agility and compete through the International Agility club and have been doing very well at competitions. Harley and Elouise are definitely a very bonded team. Elouise is now learning to ride but is using another horse that is…
Edward is Adopted!
Back in 2021, Edward arrived at SAFE alongside his friends Jacob and Esme. The trio had been adopted from an orphan foal rescue by a family that was not equipped to care for them. On intake, Edward was suffering from equine asthma, and as a result was incredibly thin.…
Alumni Update: Jewel and Tilt (Korra)
Julie updated us on how both Jewel and Tilt, now Korra, are doing. Jewel is 13 now! She is doing well but still has issues with being saddled. I have been able to saddle her on and off but I just get about half a dozen rides on her before she freaks out again. Since…
