Do you ever wonder…
Do you ever wonder where SAFE gets its funding? We were wondering the same thing…so we took a look at the numbers, and discovered some interesting facts about SAFE. First, we looked at GRANTS and found that since SAFE began in 2005, we’ve only received $11,804 in…
Amazing transformation!

Mr Pibb at White Birch Farm
Mr Pibb has been fostered at beautiful White Birch Farm since leaving NWESC late May. His rehabilitation has come along very well, and he is vastly changed from the sad, skinny horse that first came to us. He’s been ridden in the arena and on the trails! We’re very…

Congratulations to our good friend Karen V on her adoption of Roger B Rabbit!
Horses available through Pierce County Animal Control

Cameo continues to make good progress in her rehab from last July’s injury. Volunteers have been walking and trotting her in hand for the past several months. Cameo is a pretty good girl for her exercise sessions but she is easily spooked if there is too much noise or…
Getting to know Jessel
Well color me impressed! Jessel had her first health check up with Dr. McCracken and she was a superstar. She was a little shocked by the first vaccine but it only got better with the others. We will be giving her more boosters in a few weeks but at least she won’t…
Getting to know Tess
We are happy to have three sweet new mares in our care: Tess, Bean, and Jessel. They were rescued from a very tough situation of neglect and starvation, and it’s going to take some time and TLC before they are ready for adoption. At the moment, we are letting them…
