Holly is once again available for adoption

Former SAFE-horse Holly was adopted last year to a family with a teenage girl. Unfortunately, due to some health problems and financial issues, they are unable to keep her. Once again, we are offering this wonderful mare for adoption. She is now 6 years old. Video…

Congratulations to our March Volunteer of the Month, Kyle Putnam!  Kyle has volunteered at the farm doing chores, as well as at the SAFE Benefit Horse Show and most recently as a foster home for SAFE horse Dexter. Please join me in offering Kyle a sincere “Thank You”…

Arnie Video

A video of Arnie, being ridden by his owner’s niece, a beginner who hasn’t ridden in a couple of years. This is Arnie’s first ride in a year. What a gem of a horse!

Dexter Update

Here’s an update from Dexter’s foster home: Ultimately, I’ve fallen in love with this little guy. If he was a hand taller or I was a hand shorter, I’d keep him. He’s smart, athletic, tough, and funny, everything I like in a horse. But I do think he deserves a rider…

JR Intake photos

New SAFE horse JR arrived at the farm today. He needs to put on weight, and he’s very muddy from his previous home with a terribly matted tail and bad cracks in his hooves. He’s a remarkably polite horse with great manners. He is going to make someone an awesome…

Oscar and Scooter update, updated!

Oscar and Scooter were taken straight to Evergreen Holistic Vet Care on Saturday to await their gelding surgeries. Both stallions have proven to be extremely difficult to handle and their surgeries were bumped up to this week to get them done as soon as possible.…

Shiloh Update

Shiloh has finished 60 days professional training. She’s still very green, but considering she came to us as a barely handled 5 year old, she’s doing very well! She has a sweet nature and a generally calm temperament.

Grandma Dottie Belle

Dottie has a new friend at her foster home at Pacific Moon Equestrian Center —an 8 month old KWPN gelding named Frido! This young son of Freestyle seems to really enjoy life in the big field, as long as Dottie is by his side. Dottie has taken the little guy under her…

Training Update: Anderson

Anderson made his way home from training a few weeks ago. It has been a lot of fun getting to know his personality and to start riding him. I have 100% confidence getting on him. With unfamiliar horses you don’t always know how they are going to react to a new rider,…

Adoption Announcement: Hickory!

Hickory has been adopted! It is wonderful that this gentle boy has found a perfect home while he’s been training with Joel Conner. Fran, his new owner, is an avid trail rider who is looking forward to having him join her two older horses. Fran plans on leaving Hickory…

A perfect place for Lola!

The end of 2015 was a very busy time for us as a few of our horses made their way to join new families.  One that has been a LONG time coming is LOLA’s adoption! It has been quite the journey for this little mare.  SAFE and our volunteers have been with her through…
