Savannah Update
Savannah arrived at SAFE on Sunday, September 25, and if we haven’t created a page for her yet, it’s because she is already pending adoption with someone who knows her from her previous rescue experience. We are enjoying her at SAFE as she is a lovely mare who is very…

Our Resident Comedian Ben
Some pictures are worth a thousand words, and some, like these, a whole bucket of laughs. Ben is a big goofball with as many expressions as that of a great stand-up comedian. We love hanging out with this big guy as his antics always put a smile on everyone’s face.…
