Delilah Updates from Mar 27 2010
7:23 am: Unfortunately, Delilah is not taking to motherhood as well as we had hoped. I have been up every two hours all night because she will not stand to let him nurse without being held and forced to. Dr. Evergreen was just here to do the iGg test and he looks…
Birth
Here you go…many more pictures to come but I need to feed horses, myself, take a shower, eat, and maybe take a nap first. But mom and baby are doing great and he’s a healthy, strapping big solid dark bay colt. He’s been up, nursed, and all the things he’s supposed…
Foal Watch 2010
March 24 Nope…no foal…! But man, that is one big mare and she can make one HUGE mess! Have I mentioned how much I hate cleaning a stall bedded with straw? UGH! And she is drinking about 6 full 5‑gallon buckets of water every day and then peeing it all back out…
Sinatra Update from Mar 25 2010
Here is the picture of Sinatra’s first canter under saddle. He is doing great!
Delilah Update from Mar 20–21 2010
Hoping to get some updated photos of Delilah today. She’s bagging up and getting close I think. She’s huge and uncomfortable and has lots of edema under her belly and between her front legs. Yesterday she got a little excited and tried to do a little head flip/mini…
Sinatra Update from Mar 9 and 16 2010
Mar 9 Sinatra is doing great! The trainer reports he is the easiest to start so far. She’s been on him at the walk several times now and he’s just really good. She will trot him tomorrow. She says he might be one we could get away with just 30 days on if he stays…
Sinatra Update from Mar 4 2010
Sinatra’s gone to training! He gets to live in a beautiful pasture with another 3 year old — the two of them immediately hit it off and were getting along famously… He’s done great in his first two days of training! Yesterday they groomed him, bridled him and…
Dexter Update from March 1, 2010
Dexter was adopted in late January but unfortunately, things are not working out with his adoptive home. His adopter lives on a property that is right by a busy highway. Their fencing is safe but not electric and for some reason Dexter has been repeatedly trying to…
Rocky Update!
Thank you to Rocky’s wonderful foster mom Kellie for this update on our boy! Rocky is gaining weight, as evidence by the picture (somewhat) and his medium blanket (which is now very tight). He is eating about 3+ flakes of hay at day. (We just keeping putting more in…
2014 Volunteer of the Year: Ann Amort
At the end of every year, SAFE looks back at all the great volunteers and has to make the difficult decision of who to recognize as Volunteer of the Year. We have so many people that give their time, energy, love, compassion, and support to SAFE. This past year we had…
2014 Q4 Impact Statement
New Horses Intake Date: December 18, 2014 Ben (Pierce County Animal Control) Nala (Pierce County Animal Control) Placed Horses Strider Skye Euthanization None
More Nala photos
Ben has been identified…
We’ve checked Ben’s tattoo and discovered that he is a 2004 gelding named Babe Hoolihan, bred in Washington state, and raced twice as a three year old. (He came in dead last in both races, so obviously horse racing didn’t suit him.) In 2009, he was rescued from an…
Nala Intake Photos
We picked Nala up today from the Pierce Co Animal Control holding barn. She loaded into the trailer without a fuss, and made the successful trip to Poulsbo where she will begin working immediately with trainer Matt Olson. Here are her intake photos, along with video…
