Stella the Brave and Beautiful

Stella is growing up nicely and has become much more consistent for other people to handle. She is easy to catch in turnout and happy to get groomed. She is still a little shy about letting people handle her feet but that’s continually improving too. She is a very…

Owen’s Week

Last week was a momentous one for Mr Curly Horse, and we could not be more proud of the amazing progress this horse has made. Monday’s accomplishment was a successful first standing hoof trim. Matt’s been working with Owen on picking up his feet since he took over his…

Hay from the Bin

Phoenix thinks hay from the bin tastes better then hay in a bag or on the ground!

Let’s all congratulate Leslie D as SAFE’s October Volunteer of the Month! Leslie was recruited to SAFE through another volunteer (thank you Erika!!) and we are so lucky to have her. She has a weekly chore shift and will pick up as many others as she can when other…

Another trail ride adventure for Skye, Skittles, and Lola

We took a big group to the Redmond Watershed today for a trail ride: Skittles, Skye, Lola and Debi’s horse Summer. It was good to go out on a busy trail day so we could see more people, bikes and other horses. All the horses did very well. Skittles was a great leader…

A change of plans for Chip

Chip returned from foster care to Safe Harbor about a month ago and we had high hopes about getting him started in our training program. But with the chance to observe him in motion, we’ve seen some signs that a career as a riding horse might not be the best thing for…

Sage Gets a Spa Day, and Health Update

Sage Gets a Spa Day, and Health Update

Our little Sage has blossomed! She came to us with a long, dull coat from neglect and malnourishment–so long and scruffy, in fact, that some of us referred to her endearingly as our little yak-pony. But after some good nutrition, a few baths, and a round with the…

Piper’s New Foster Home

Piper’s New Foster Home

Last week, we tearfully loaded Piper into a trailer and wished her well as she headed off to her new foster home. Because Piper is so young, she has a lot of growing up to do before she’ll officially start training. So we started thinking about sending her out to…

Raven Takes Another Field Trip

Raven Takes Another Field Trip

Raven’s colic saga has unfortunately continued since her last update. Although her colics are usually very minor, we still want to get to the bottom of the problem and find a solution if we can. We hauled her into Pilchuck Veterinary Hospital last week for an internal…

It’s Stormy in the Sunshine

It’s Stormy in the Sunshine

Stormy took advantage of our nice weather this week by requesting a spa day. She must know that bath time is followed by grazing on fresh grass while fur is drying.
