Here are some cute photos that Allison took of Sinatra back in July, being himself at SAFE Harbor Stables. 

Bigfoot? Big heart!

It would undoubtedly be quite a surprise to be hiking through the woods only to run into the legendary Sasquatch, the elusive man-ape creature said to haunt the forests of the Northwest. It was no less a surprise when we at SAFE received a donation in the amount of…
