Zan videos from Jan 8 2011
Jamie took some video of us riding. She does give a small buck/kick out going into the canter. Sheās had over 60 days of professional training but *is* still green. Also, she has had over a month off. As youāll see, canter was easier to the right than the left. Sheāsā¦
Zan Update from Jan 8 2011
Zanās thread just does not reflect what a little gem she is. Itās been a dark icky winter so far and I have not been as motivated, as I should be, but the weather was crappy in the mountains and I was up early this morning (and bailed on riding last night) so Iā¦

It has been quite a while since I posted about Bucky. Heās full of energy and seems to be enjoying himself. He is a real cutie! Heās always escorting me to his stall when I come down to feed in the evenings, and he has very good barn manners. I had his ACTH re-testedā¦
Summer Update from Dec 26 2010
Summer is doing well. She continues to be on pergolide, but sheās doing well at 1mg. Her coat is slightly longer and thicker than last year but I think thatās more a reflection of the kind of winter weāre supposed to have. Sheās holding her weight and is continuing toā¦

So far is SO good for Ben!
Some horses just have that sparkle in their eye from the moment they arrive at SAFE. Within the abused or neglected body is a personality thatās just waiting for the energy and life to come back. Since the day he arrived at Safe Harbor, Ben has been one of those greatā¦
A Real Einstein
As weāve gotten to know Einstein better, weāve come to understand that heās a pretty amazing horse. When he first arrived at Safe Harbor, after three weeks in Animal Control custody, he was pretty unsure about just about everything, so he spent his first few daysā¦
New shoes for Phoenix
A pair of new glue-on shoes have really helped Phoenixās tender toes! And look how well-behaved he was for his hoof preparation! He knew that farrier Jake Cowden was not going to hurt him. Heās such a sweet and trusting horse. So far he seems to be a lot moreā¦
Sweet Relief for Annabelle
Before her rescue, Annabelle had not had proper hoof care for some time. Her hooves were terribly overgrown and split, making movement quite uncomfortable for her. Dr Hannah gave her a preliminary trim while she was at NWESC, but today she got a full and proper trimā¦
