One of the many reasons Scotti has earned the nickname “Naughty Scotti”. Can’t you just see it?
Lola Update from Feb 16, 2009
Lola is growing and doesn’t have as much rain rot as Aiden had. She is still putting on the tough girl act but once you touch her the ears come back up. Silly filly!! She sometimes will stand to have her blanket on and off. She is getting the leading down but would…
Whisper Update — February 11, 2009
From Monica: I was grooming our sweet Whisper tonight and she is really filling out in her body and I am actually going to be cutting her food back. She has shoulder muscles forming and a nice round rear, and a bit of a belly, too. She has changed so much in just this…

Rain, sand, and Sasha
This is what happens when you mix rain, sand, and Sasha. I think she knew I was laughing…what else could I do? Love her face!
February Volunteer of the Month: Lisa Tuininga
One of the many ways to volunteer with SAFE is to become a Foster for a SAFE Horse. Our network of foster homes is what allows us to help more horses than we can house at our main facility. When we happen to come across a foster who is also willing and capable to…
