Delilah Update from Feb 10, 2010
She’s doing great! She’s such a sweet girl. When we groomed her last weekend the baby was all on one side and she looked huge on that side, flat on the other. I wish we had some idea of when the baby might be due, but we’ll just have to keep watching her udder for…
Holly Update — Feb 9, 2010
Update from Holly’s adopter: We have been taking advantage of this nice weather. Holly is happy to be back to work. I need to measure her again…I think she has grown some more since last year.
Annie Update from Feb 8 2010
Annie had some time off while the arena was occupied with the new mares but we were back to work yesterday. I was pleased that she was really good despite not being ridden in nearly three weeks! We had been making headway in the canter and that has taken a few steps…
Summer Update from Feb 7 2010
Update from foster home: Hi fans of Summer, I wanted to let everyone know how Summer is doing. We’ve been fostering her since late Sept. I needed a companion to my wonderful 30 year old gelding, Mac, and he and Summer really hit it off. We lost Mac in mid January. He…
Baxter Photo Gallery — Feb 6, 2010
I am really thrilled to report that at Baxter’s weighing in today he has finally showed significant weight gain, up to 900 lbs. on the weight tape and he looks so much better! The huge gap between his butt cheeks is down to less than an inch now (instead of like 3–4…
Sasha — Feb 5, 2010
Megan has opted to list Sasha via our SAFE-Assisted rehoming program. As most of you are aware, Sasha suffered a suspensory injury to her right hind last summer. Here is a write-up that was provided by the vet: Having just reviewed Sasha’s history, the summary is that…
Sinatra Update from Jan 31 2010
Well it looks like Sinatra has grown! We measured him this weekend and he is just a hair over 14h! Yay Sinatra! Here he is after as good of a grooming as you can do for him in the winter. Thank goodness for blankets on white horses!
A visit with Sapphire
SAFE Volunteer Manager Heather shared these photos of Sapphire on the SAFE Tumblr page. I asked her to fill us in on how our girl is faring at her foster home. “I take lesson there on Saturdays,” Heather explained, “and I get to spend time with Sapphire. She spent the…
Trotting with Owen
One week under saddle and Owen is making astounding progress with trainer Matt Olson. Check out this video, taken at the end of Owen’s lesson last Thursday. Did you notice how willingly Owen walked over the “bridge” from the trails course? How about that reinback? All…
October Training Report
Phoenix had a hard month concentrating under saddle. He continues to look sound on the front but does come out of his stall pretty stiff both in the front and hind. He had quite a few naughty days this month mostly due to work, noise, and activity at the barn that…
Finn Update
We’ve had a setback with Finn’s soundness this month. He has had some slight stiffness and isn’t looking as comfortable as he had been. When farrier Jake came to put on his new shoes last week, we noticed a bruise next to his frog on the right front. There was no…
First ride for Karma, and more great news!
I have to say this little grey mare has my heart right now! She is making great strides in her rehabilitation and there is a lot of hope for the sweet side of this mare breaking through. She was very cautious when she first came to Safe Harbor and we made sure to take…
Stella the Brave and Beautiful
Stella is growing up nicely and has become much more consistent for other people to handle. She is easy to catch in turnout and happy to get groomed. She is still a little shy about letting people handle her feet but that’s continually improving too. She is a very…
