Welcome to the new SAFE website!
The new SAFE website debuted today. It’s located at www.safehorses.org. My hope is that this website will incorporate all the best features of our Message Board, our old website, and Facebook. This post is somewhat of a test to try out our ability to automatically…
Zan Update — Jan 12 2011
Zan and I rode last night, despite the wind. I decided to lunge her first to see how she felt with the wind whipping and let her adjust to the sound the arena roof makes with a big gust (it even made me jump the first few times I heard it!). She gave a few bucks on…
Charmeon Update
Charmeon has had some training now and lightly started under saddle but still needs more. The owner has since lost her home and sold her furniture to pay for board and training for her two horses. This is a nice mare that still has a lot of potential!
Zan Update from Jan 9 2011
I liked Zan so much I called the trainer to see if she’d come down and give me a lesson today. While Zan was a bit of a nut on the lunge line yesterday (bucking and racing around before settling in) today she gave me a quiet, rythmic trot instead. I’ve been told this…
Lexi Update from Jan 9 2011
I just thought I’d update Lexi’s thread. She’s a volunteer favorite. She’s so sweet and easy to handle. It seems like she’s always out getting groomed or loved on. I rode her a few times last fall in anticipation of her being looked at by a potential adopter (and of…
Dexter Video from Jan 8 2011
Dexter back under saddle after being returned to SAFE in December.
Dexter Update from Jan 8 2011
I’m sad to report that Dexter is back at SAFE. While I like to hang out with him- I was really hoping to never see his cute face again. He was a very good boy for his potential adopter for about 2 months and then he had some behavioral issues and was returned. It…

Two New Intakes at SAFE
Taking possession of new horses is one of the most challenging parts of our job. Usually, even when a horse has been neglected, it’s had some degree of handing. And loading an unfamiliar horse into a trailer can be a challenge, but with patient efforts, we usually get…
Training Update: Cameo
Cameo has officially grown up!! She went on her first real trail ride and did very well! She had a few jumps here and there but overall it was manageable and she came home a bit more mature then when she left. Couldn’t be more pleased with how grown up she is acting…
Hollywood Hills Schooling Show — May 2, 2015
Nala, Misty, and Karma competed at the Hollywood Hills English/Western Schooling show this weekend, and all three girls were amazing! Nala won the English Walk/Trot Reserve High Point for our age division at her very first show!! She earned that award with a first…
Farrier/Foster Update: Finn
Finn has really been giving us fits trying to figure out how to keep his hooves comfortable! Our amazing farrier Jake Cowden recently decided to take Finn on as a foster horse, moving him to his home to be able to closely monitor him and make more frequent and subtle…
Einstein and Ivy at play!
Sometimes goofy horses just need time to be goofy. But look at how deftly Ivy moves Einstein around the arena.…almost as if he were…a cow? Does Ivy have a secret past as a cutting horse?
