New Intakes — Feb 27 2011
SAFE has taken in two senior horses (25+) surrendered tonight to King County Animal Control (we were told the mare is 37, the gelding is 33, but Dr. Evergreen thinks they are not quite that old, but definitely over 25). They are currently in SAFE’s care and are being…

Greta Update — Feb 23, 2011
Update from our volunteer who did a site visit on Greta this year: Greta seems happy, when I showed up she just sort of stared at me and didn’t want to come over to say hi. When her mom showed up she got really happy and came over to her mom who haltered her. Her mom…
Charmeon Update — Feb 21, 2011
This beautiful video was sent to us from the trainer who has been working with Char. She has had about 5 rides so far (in both western and english tack) and seems to be doing an excellent job with her! I love the music…“beautiful, beautiful”, is certainly what I…

Today, Lexi went off on her next adventure in life! Congratulations to Cindy G. of Lynnwood, WA! We were sad, but also so happy, to see her finally find her forever home. Cindy is SO happy to bring Lexi home! Lexi has a long history as a SAFE…
SAFE Journal — Feb 20, 2011

Zan Update — Feb 20, 2011
Sara had a lesson on Zanadu today that went really well. They are using trot poles to help with canter departs and it seems to help her a lot. No more kicking out in the departs and she is picking up the correct lead right when asked, not rushing into the canter like…

Training Update: Einstein
Einstein is a true smarty-pants! We have introduced tack and a rider’s weight, taking things slowly as he still has some weight and muscle to gain over his back. He has been an absolute gem about everything. He is getting used to the flag work and connects very well…
May 21st is “Give Your Former Stallion a Bath” Day
Here’s Dr Hannah, teaching Anderson the joys of bathing on a warm day in late Spring! This was a great learning moment for our former wild stallion…and as it turned out, a learning moment for all of us as well. Although Anderson had been checked carefully for lice…
Training Update: Karma
It has been a few weeks of firsts for Karma: her first time jumping all the way into the trailer, her first trail ride as a SAFE horse, and her very first show! Trailer loading has been a challenge for Karma since the day we picked her up but we have had an amazing…
Stella!!!!!!!
Baby girl is back at Safe Harbor! I would say that we missed her but I’m not sure the neighbors were too happy she was home. She spent the first two days (and nights) calling for her bestie Jewel, who was stalled in the other barn. It was a bit of an adjustment being…
Training Update: Kai
Kai is going very nicely for trainer Joel Conner in Vancouver WA. He’s made some great improvements, both in the ground work and riding over the course of his tune up training. There was a little setback a few weeks back when Kai cut his chin while playing over the…
What a Jewel!
It may or may not be a secret but I LOVE this little mare SO much! She has grown into the cutest little quarter horse mare. She looks like a little miniature version of Finn and we all love his nice hindquarters! We recently brought both Jewel and Stella in from…
