Deeds — 10/8/11
We haven’t updated Deeds’ page in a while. He spent his summer at a foster home up in Stanwood, where he was a companion to an older mare. We have now moved him down to a foster home in Redmond, where he has a nice dry paddock and shelter and a buddy, a warmblood…
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…
Not a stallion any more!
Moonshine arrived at SAFE as a stallion so our first order of business was changing him into a gelding! Moonshine was castrated on October 1st as part of our castration clinic hosted by NWESC.

Stella: Training Update
Just for a little fun, I decided to work Stella in a Dressage saddle this week. She did very well and was comfortable to sit the trot and canter in the English tack. She is learning to keep a nice rhythm and cadence in her gaits. When she gets troubled, it takes…
Photo shoot with Dottie Belle!

Marta Update
Ms. Marta continues being her fancy “prancy” self. Every morning, she puts on a show, arching her neck, snorting and trotting with her fabulous self-carriage. She likes to remind us that her sire was the famous Probat and that many of her family members are National…
Shay Update
Shay has struggled with periodic bouts of lameness over the years. Recently, it went on long enough that we called out Dr. Fleck, from the Rainland Farm Equine Clinic, for an evaluation. He reviewed earlier x‑rays of Shay’s rotated coffin bone and thought she just…
