Aiden Update from June 14 2009

Aiden’s healing up very nicely, the swelling is gone, no more forced exercise. After the first few days he started to STINK really bad, and I had to get in there and clean everything out several times, during which I pulled out a huge chunk of rotting nasty yuck…not…

Dory Update — Jun 14, 2009

New photos of Dory the Adory-able! She was a little naughty today, she is going through a little bit of terrible twos.  She threw a little mini-fit being taken away from the horses and being very naughty but I worked with her a bit and while she will test new people…

Whisper Update — June 14, 2009

Visited Whisper today, and wow! She looks amazing! She has grown a lot in height (she was 13.3 a few months ago, and I sticked her today at 14.2 at the wither and 15h at the butt — she is going to end up a good sized horse I think!). She also has filled out a…

Summer Update from June 4 2009

Update from Summer’s foster mom, Brenda: Summer is doing great I just love this mare. She needs a job with young horses teaching them the ropes. Figi has learned so much from her. I will have to get a video of Summer teaching Figi about personal space and making her…

Sasha — May 31, 2009

Sasha is doing well, I had my husband take some video of us lunging. I decided not to put her saddle, bridle, and side reins on today since it was so warm and I just wanted to give her little bit of exercise. She had gone lame in her rear legs about 2–3 weeks ago and…

Lola Update from May 31 2009

While Aiden was getting castrated, Lola got some attention from adoring fans. You can see she was soaking it up! 

Aiden Update from May 30 2009

Aiden got gelded today and everything went perfectly. He went down easily, got up easily, a very smooth castration. 

Skittles at the SAFE Show

What a “Show Pro” little Skittles turned out to be at the SAFE Benefit Horse Show! She had a wonderful “been there done that no big deal” attitude about everything. We all had a ton of fun at the show and she was so easy to work with in every way. She bathed, loaded…

Lola at the SAFE Show

I am very pleased with Lola’s growth overall the last 7 months. I have had countless volunteers and others remark at what a different horse she is to handle and how nice she looks under saddle. She was a star at the SAFE Benefit Show. Honest and…

A Long Overdue Update for Bucky B Lucky…

Lucky has been on medical hold for a while now, while we worked to sort through a couple of issues. We now have more information to share regarding this handsome gentleman. First and foremost, Lucky’s behavior has been fabulous during his time in foster at White Birch…

New photos of 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…

Getting to know Emmy!

Emmy’s been at SHS for two weeks now, and she’s become everyone’s favorite girl! She’s tall and beautiful, but she’s also a sweetheart who is kind and willing and just plain nice to be around. Here are two updates that Terry shared with us last week: Big day for Emmy-…
