Biscotti — May 13, 2008
Sorry I haven’t given many updates or photos yet. Its been miserable weather-wise and dealing with a sick foal in quarantine and a newborn means not much is getting done with him and he hasn’t been out of the stall yet except to go from one stall to another when I am…
Background and History
Biscotti was born at SAFE out of a 5 year old black and white pinto Saddlebred mare named Hope (Registered name “Acquiescence”) that was rescued from a large animal control seizure involving 9 other horses (plus 10 more in another county) in Carnation on February 22,…
Horsebytes Blog by Monica Bretherton: Photo Assistant
http://blog.seattlepi.com/horsebytes/2008/05/08/photo-assistant/ A gray new day is dawning…. And I’m not done with yesterday yet. But here are some pictures. Maid duty at SAFE is, well, a little repetitive, so when there’s a chance to accomplish two things at once,…
Phoenix Photos and Hock Swelling
Phoenix is doing great! The main concern with him right now is a little bit of a swollen left hind hock that I am keeping an eye on. I think he probably overexerted himself somehow. Other than that, he is doing really well and I took tons of hair off him yesterday. I…
Holly Update — May 5, 2008
Holly’s foster mom update: Holly and Emma got to go play in the big field for the first time. They had a great time running and playing. Although, Holly would rather eat the grass. She looks really good. I have not seen her come into heat yet. Emma has been in twice.…
Annie Update from April 28 2008
Our farrier tried again to get her back feet done — this is the 3rd or 4th time now she has worked with her and she is also an experienced trainer, but Annie is having none of it. She will let you brush her hind feet, but if you touch them with a bare hand, she will…

Sinatra Update from Apr 27 2008
Here’s our boy today, he is SUCH a ham but standing still for photos is not really his thing. I know it is hard to tell from these photos, but I actually see signs of a pretty horse emerging under all this hair. Right now though, he is still pretty homely looking:…

Sweet Smellin’ Ginger!
What Arabian girl doesn’t love her hair products and pampering? Well until this matted tail little mare had met me, I’m not sure how she survived without spa treatments and pampering! As you may know from earlier reports, while Ginger’s previous owner allowed her to…
The Constant Gentleman: Portland
If you have yet to meet this amazing gelding, I wanted to give you just a little taste of what it’s like to know this special horse. I lovingly call him my “boyfriend” because he embodies a strong, caring gentleman who would undoubtedly take long walks on the beach…
Checking in With Bridgit
Bridgit is an endearing youngster, her occasional moments of baby brain are quickly forgiven when she looks at you with her innocent charm. She spent the summer in the company of my older boss mare, learning how to be a respectful member of a herd. She was a very…
