Annie Update from Aug 24 2009

Annie did just fabulous at the show! She surprised us all by being just cool as a cucumber with all the activity in the arena! I was really proud of her, our little wild child has grown up! Of course, she had to remind us just how sensitive our little drama queen can…

Sinatra Update from Aug 24 2009

Sinatra was among several SAFE horses who competed at the 3rd Annual SAFE Benefit Horse Show. He was a superstar at the show, and even won a blue ribbon in the Halter class for the Rescue Horse division. I talked to our judge, Leslie Killpatrick, over email, and told…

Buckwheat Update from Aug 5 2009 and Aug 20 2009

Due to some health problems in Bucky’s adoptive family, Buckwheat’s adopters are going to sadly have to sell their farm and Bucky is in need of a new home. This sweet guy is still quite ridable and sound and is free to an approved home. If not adopted, he will be…

Annie Update from Aug 16 2009

Update from Kyle: I worked with Annie today for the first time in a few months. The people who have been working with her have been doing a great job. I think Annie has really turned a corner. She was easy to handle, didn’t have any major overreactions, and worked…

Sinatra Update from Aug 16 2009

Sinatra got a beauty treatment today! Allison and I gave him a bath and scrubbed him within an inch of his life. He wasn’t so sure about it at first but then he did great! We gave him a bridle path, combed out his mane and tail, and then took some conformation shots…

Biscotti — Aug 15, 2009

Found some cute pictures from earlier this spring: Scotti: ā€œHey guys, stop sleeping and come play with me!ā€ Lola: ā€œSnore.ā€ Aiden: ā€œzzzzā€ Scotti: ā€œIf you don’t get up, I’m going to bite you!ā€ Lola: ā€œHey now!ā€ Aiden: ā€œzzzzā€ Scotti: ā€œYou asked for it!ā€ <chomp>…

Bridgit is growing up!

We checked in recently with SAFE horse Bridgit to see how she is progressing in her preparation for training as a saddle horse. Bridgit has been in a foster home for the past year to give her a little time to grow and mature. Her foster mom had some wonderful things…

Our Dottie Belle

  We’re quite happy to report that we haven’t had any more colic scares from our dear Dottie recently. Since completing Gastrogard therapy, she’s doing great on a product called Smart Gut and a few other digestive supplements. She gets a mash twice a day made of…

Ruby — Before and After

Ruby is having a great summer living out in pasture at her foster home. Her foster mom, Jackie, calls Ruby a very sweet girl who is friendly, curious and loves attention. Jackie says she wishes she could let her in the house so they could watch chick flicks and snack…

Catching up with Karma

The new girl, Karma, was taken straight to NWESC after we picked her up from Pierce County Animal Control. We were concerned about some edema on her chest and belly, as well as the slightly snotty nose she was exhibiting. Since NWESC is better set up to quarantine a…

The joy of Cameo

What a joy this little mare is becoming! I had some really lovely quiet rides on Cameo this month. She can still be quite the four year old handful but she has a new peace about her and ground work is helping her find that more and more. Once she gets rid of the…

Handsome Phoenix ā€” lovingly referred to by his friends at SAFE as our overgrown golden retriever puppy ā€” is staying sound and happy in his rehab. As you know, he was diagnosed with a left front high suspensory tear in January. As far as we could put together, this…
