Baxter Update from Dec 5, 2009
Baxter was seen by Dr. Kelli Taylor from Evergreen Holistic Vet today and she concurred with the Body Condition Score of 1/9. He has rain rot all over him including his ears and around his eyes. He has a heart murmur right now, hopefully like Whisper this will resolve…
Dexter Update from Dec 5, 2009
Introducing…Dexter! Isn’t he the cutest? He’s a bit butt-high at the moment, so he still has some growing to do. He’s very round, and a far cry from the condition he was in when he was seized (currently a BCS of 5/9). Today he got his teeth done and his wolf teeth…

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…
Owen’s Week
Last week was a momentous one for Mr Curly Horse, and we could not be more proud of the amazing progress this horse has made. Monday’s accomplishment was a successful first standing hoof trim. Matt’s been working with Owen on picking up his feet since he took over his…
