isn’t this a great picture of Sinatra? Taken by my friend Stacy, who came out last weekend with her daughter Madeleine to help out with the horses!
Sasha — Feb 8, 2009
Good Evening- Here are some more pics of Sasha. We’ve been working with a trainer for about four weeks now. We’ve been doing a lot of linking up to get her to be comfortable with leading and stopping. She’s doing quite well in paying attention to me and my body…
Annie Update from Feb 5 2009
Update from Allison: So I took Annie out for a thorough grooming session the other day, and I could not believe this was the same horse!!!!!! At first, she was a little jiggy, like “what are we doing, why is there no wall behind me”, but she quickly relaxed and…
Whisper Update — February 5, 2009
From Monica: Ok, the camera adds ten pounds…at least I hope it was the camera:-) I tried not to cry, but that sweet Whisper has a way of getting into the hearts of those who have had the priviledge of working with her. I swear I had many profound statements on…
Summer Update from Feb 4 2009
Summer gets a haircut! She is such a nice horse. I have never had a problem catching her and today she did not even blink at the clippers and let me clip her with out moving.
Summer Update from Feb 2 2009 and Feb 4 2009
I promise I wont always post so many pictures but she is just so dang sweet. She is already warming up to us. Here she is with my boys. Summer is doing great. She is eating good and her and Figi are getting along just great. Summer…
Deeds Update from Feb 1 2009
Update from Deeds’ Adopter: So… Mr. Deeds got to be our model this wednesday! We had some reps out to my work to demonstrate a very fancy digital xray machine. Since my vet knew that i was planning on rechecking Deed’s enlarged fetlock and suspensory, he asked if i…
Annie Update from Jan 30 2009
Annie is also wrapping up her training and coming back to Monroe this weekend, where hopefully we can find enough volunteers to keep her going until she finds a home! In the last couple of weeks Annie has also made huge strides in her training. While she will always…
The Amazing Owen
Owen had made so much progress since our last update, but yesterday was a stellar day for this fine young man. Owen is now wearing a halter — on his face! But before we tell you how that milestone was reached, we have to say a great big thank you to Jenny M, who you…
Ruby’s Recovery
Ruby continues her slow recovery at NWESC, where she is getting hands-on care and attention following the birth, and passing, of her foal. She is definitely not out of the woods yet, but her condition has stabilized. Initial blood tests revealed that she was severely…
Phoenix in Rehab
Here’s volunteer Stephanie riding Phoenix during his rehab session yesterday at Safe Harbor! As of this week, Phoenix is now being walked up to 30 minutes per day. Happily he’s being a wonderfully well behaved gentleman for his rehab…not to mention stunningly…
We named her Grace
Many of our supporters have asked for more detail about what happened to Ruby’s foal. If you missed the beginning of the story, you can read it here. Another busy Saturday night at NWESC had Dr. Hannah Mueller caring for her patients. She passed Ruby’s stall to see…
Saddle? No problem!
Mr Finn was a superstar yesterday! He wore a saddle for the first time since coming to SAFE and was completely unfazed by the experience. Terry says was a perfect gentleman! Way to go, Finn!! As we’ve mentioned before, when we took Finn on as a SAFE horse, we were…
Happy saddle day, Sapphire!
Sapphire wore a saddle for the first time today as a SAFE horse, and she was a champ! Terry was even able to lay across her back and have a volunteer lead her around the arena for a few steps. Great work, Sapphy!!
