Zan Update from Dec 5, 2010

Update from SAFE Volunteer Coordinator, Allison Sheka: I took Zan out yesterday for a good grooming and photo shoot. She stood nicely in the crossties and has good manners on the ground. She was shy about being caught, but came around with cookies. I put her in the…

Nadia Update Dec 1, 2010

I received an email from the woman who had Nadia and the other seized from her. She provided some information on Nadia, that she had purchased her from Darlene Wilson (same as Calamity) and that she is supposedly cart-trained and has been used in parades. She stated…

Delilah Update from Dec 1 2010

Since Delilah’s adoption did not work out, today we sent her up to start training with our trainer. I think she’s going to be a super nice horse, just need to be mindful of her alpha status and her size with other horses. She loaded and hauled perfectly…can’t wait…

Zan Update from Dec 1, 2010

Unfortunately, Zan’s pending adoption has fallen through. This has nothing to do with Zan herself, but rather a change in the status of the family that was planning to adopt her. Zan has returned to SAFE and she looks great. We are hoping to get a rider on her ASAP…

Deeds Update from Nov 18 2010

Update from Sheridan: Deeds is doing well; he’s here at my place in Monroe. He did a month of training with Kim Gatley in Maltby, and it did wonders for him both on groundwork and under saddle. He’s very quiet and generally very sweet. I just wish I had more time to…

Monroe Monitor: The Killing of Kings

The Killing of Kings by Caiti Raimer Published Nov 15 2010 For two years I’ve volunteered at S.A.F.E (Save A Forgotten Equine). A horse came to us one day, a victim of the racing world. His name is Bucky B Lucky; he is the grandson of Seattle Slew, and the sweetest…

Lucky Update from Nov 14 2010

Had a visit today from one of Bucky B Lucky’s former part-owners. Tara confirmed that Lucky was always a barn sweetheart. She also brought two win pictures of Lucky that his future adopter will get to keep. Very cool, thank you Tara! This might be a great time to…

Einstein Intake Photos

Einstein is a 15 year old Quarter Horse gelding seized by Animal Control for lack of care. He’s already gained about 50 pounds since he was taken from his home, and he’s starting to shed his scruffy starvation coat. His hooves are going to need a lot more care as they…

Kai Training Update

Kai is doing “amazing well” during his tuneup training with Joel Conner. We couldn’t be happier with his progress and how soft, relaxed, and balanced Joel has him going. Take a look at these fun photos of Kai getting accustomed to a rope being thrown from the saddle…

March Volunteer of the Month: Jackie Liles

SAFE depends on volunteers in many different ways. Jackie Liles is one of our most important volunteers: she is a SAFE Foster! Jackie has been fostering horses with SAFE for several years. She opens her home and heart for any horse we ask of her. There have been times…

Lucky in Love

Obviously, adoptions are special to us…nothing makes us happier than being able to announce that one of the SAFE horses has found a home. But every so often, an adoption will fall into place that just reaches into our hearts and gives a little squeeze. An adoption…
