Tia Update — Mar 2, 2011
Yesterday, I met with Dr. Hannah and some of the caretakers to discuss Tia. While she has settled down from her very unsettling episodes of extreme anxiety that she was exhibiting a couple of weeks ago, she is still generally showing some signs of agitation at times.…
Nadia Update — Mar. 2, 2011
Here is a photo of Nadia under saddle yesterday. She actually was not very good yesterday, she is very herdbound to her pasture mate and was screaming and fairly tuned out to the trainer (she’s since been moved and now shares a pasture with Delilah, who gets along…
March Volunteers of the Month: Abby and Andrew
Introducing our volunteers of the month, Abby and Andrew! Abby and Andrew are a couple that have been volunteering once a week at SAFE for about a year and a half now. They come on Friday mornings and are reliable, efficient, and always cheerful! They have also taken…
Nadia Update — Feb. 28, 2011
I’ve been playing phone tag with our trainer, but I caught her for a few minutes this morning and she gave me a quick update on Nadia. Their farm in Stanwood has been buried in 3 feet of snow (and still snowing today! thank goodness we just have rain here now) and…
Corona Update Feb 27 2011
I was at NWESC today dropping off our two new horses and took the opportunity to get some updated photos of Corona. He is looking so much better! He has gained a considerable amount of weight already, his feet look much better, and his injury is looking considerably…
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…
It’s been a long time, Khianna!
Khianna has spent the past three years or so living the good life at her foster home in Enumclaw. There she shared a five acre field with three other horses and enjoyed the great care provided by Denise M and her family. Khianna came to SAFE as an 13 year old, and we…
Welcoming Back an Old Friend
There’s a new face at Safe Harbor Stables, but it belongs to a horse that first came to SAFE way back in 2010. She was a 1997 registered Quarter Horse mare named Peppy Skippa Jewel, but we just called her Scarlett. She was originally signed over to SAFE by Animal…
California here he comes!
Leo is living the good life in sunny California! Like many of us from the PNW, the more arid climate is probably great for his breathing problems. Doesn’t he look happy?
Ben returns to the fold
For the past 60 days or so, Ben has been on an extended trial with a Hunter/Jumper trainer who was interested in finding out if he had a future as a sporthorse. This was a wonderful opportunity for Ben, and a tremendous help to us because it meant that he would…
Our brave Sophie!
Apparently nobody told Sophie that horses are usually afraid of tarps! Our brave little girl walked over the tarp before Terry could even finish spreading it out on the ground! And it only took about 30 seconds to convince her it was haute couture. She’s amazing.
Lola Off Work due to Lameness
2015 has not been a great year for Lola so far. She’s been lame on and off in front since the beginning of January, and although we’ve tried several shoeing changes and she’s been examined by our veterinarians multiple times, we still haven’t been able to pinpoint the…
