Biscotti — April 27, 2009
New photos of Naughty Scotti. He is quite a bit bigger than Ariel now. He still has a long way to go to shed out his sheepskin rug but hair is coming off of him like no tomorrow. Ok, he is the most expressive horse with his upper lip I have ever known. He catches any…
Annie Update from Apr 26 2009
We haven’t had any new photos of Annie in a while so I took a bunch today, just out in the pasture. She hasn’t had any work the last few weeks as Kyle has been her primary handler, and I’ve noticed she’s actually getting a bit tubby. She looks great actually, both her…
Whisper Update — April 26, 2009
From Amy: I’m currently Whisper’s foster mom and here’s a quick update. She’s doing very well. Healthy, curious, and friendly. Very level-headed and just sensitive enough. I find her very easy to train. She was a bit pushy when she arrived a month or so ago, but is…
Dory Update — April 24, 2009
Sorry updates have been delayed on Dory, but here are some photos I took of her yesterday. She looks fantastic, all shedded out! And is it just me, or does she have more spots this year?
Update on Phoenix from his adopter
I have been very remiss in posting pictures of Phoenix — I am a horrible photographer!!! So with the cherry blossoms in bloom at Edensgate, I hired someone to take pictures of my beautiful boy. He hasn’t completely shedded out yet but I didn’t want to miss the cherry…
Lola Update from Apr 9, 2009
Lola is shedding out the matts and will soon be so pretty. Daphine did her feet today and was impressed with the color she will be soon.
Annie Update from Apr 8 2009
Update from Kyle: I’ve been working with Annie over the last couple of months, though she has had the last couple of weeks mostly off. Annie is a special mare. For the right person, I have no doubt she will be a horse of a lifetime. When I first started working with…
Whisper Update — April 7, 2009
One of our supporters, Barbara, posted this update: So I took Sera for a ride today, to make up for her being “neglected” while I was on my month-long Europe/Egypt trip. As we were coming back down the trail, I noticed a familiar rear end through the trees.….…

April Training Notes: Sapphire
We had a pretty big setback with Sapphire after Sasha’s passing. We’ve been doing ground work with her to gain her trust, and she regressed quite a bit and started showing some aggressive behavior again. But thankfully, by the end of the month, she was getting back to…
April Training Notes: Atticus
Atticus has been very spunky and playful in turnout, now that he’s settled back in at Safe Harbor. He continues to have food aggression issues and does not want anyone near his food. Our volunteers are being trained to ask him to back him up before they enter his…
April Training Notes: Finn
We’ve had some difficulties keeping Finn’s shoes on recently. His feet seem to be pretty soft and his shoes have just fallen off a few times. But they seem to be holding better now, and hopefully with better nutrition and hoof care, his feet will improve. We treated…
April Training Notes: Oscar
Oscar has been doing much better under saddle, and we’ve seen good improvement in his willingness to move forward. Also the Dynamite Vit has helped his lethargic behavior and he is not drifting off while we are working with him anymore. He still has issue with…
April Training Update: Kai
I’ve had some wonderful rides on Kai this month where he was feeling stronger and showed some good self carriage. I started working on sitting trot and found he is not ready for this on his weak back muscles. I will continue to slowly introduce more of this over the…
