Sinatra Update from Mar 6 2008 — Mar 7 2008
Sinatra’s trimming..his feet were the worst of all the babies. Photos in album include before and after photos. You can see an old, grown out abcess in one foot. Also a few photos of Kokomo and Sinatra taking a nap after their trims. …
Sinatra Update from Mar 5 2008
Sinatra was wormed yesterday and has the runs and is a bit less than his usual chipper self. Other than that though he is doing well — I think they all want to have more outside time and get out of the stall, but we have to ease them onto grass slowly.
Sasha — Intake — March 5, 2008
Now that we have “officially” adopted Sasha, I can share these photos of her. Sasha was one of 7 horses we “boarded” for Snohomish County Animal Control, beginning in early March, after being spending the first couple of weeks after the Elledge seizure at the Enumclaw…
Sinatra Update from Mar 3 2008
From Bonnie: I am here to tell you that everything you’ve heard about Sinatra is true. He is the friendly, most social, most outgoing little horse I have ever had the pleasure to meet. He is much smaller than his stall mate Kokomo and their neighbor Phoenix, but that…
A Visit with Phoenix
Phoenix continues to improve every day, and is becoming a bright, curious and loving foal who thankfully now only seems to be lying down when he takes a snooze. He is maintaining a normal body temperature now too. He loves attention…he nickers when he sees you…
Deeds Update from Feb 29 2008
Deeds is doing great! His under-saddle work with Lucy continues to get better and better, and she has nothing but good things to say about this boy. She tells me that he catches on to new things faster than any horse she has ever met. If they work on something one…

Turns out all the trail riding that Lola & Brittney have been doing lately was in preparation for a big adventure: a four-day trip to Cle Elum in Eastern Washington! DAY ONE: We meet up at SAFE Harbor Stables to pick up Lola. Her guests on this adventure are…
Charmeon, rest in peace.
Our hearts are aching this morning as we say goodbye to an amazing mare, taken from us far, far too soon. Last night, adopted SAFE horse Charmeon was lost to colic. She fought so hard, and every effort was made to help her pull through, but in the end, her beloved…
Does it seem a little quiet around here?
That is because SAFE Executive Director (and website guru) Bonnie Hammond has been taking a well deserved vacation! Bonnie took her personal horse, Chance, on a camping/trail riding trip with SAFE Trainer Brittney Stewart and her husband Darby. Brittney is riding…
Lucky at the SAFE Benefit Horse Show!
Lucky came to the SAFE Horse Show with Helga Roberts and the team from Dutch Mills Farm. Upon his arrival, he found the show environment to be somewhat electrifying, but after about an hour of handwalking to give him the opportunity to look at all the activity, he…
Brandii’s Gift
A high school friend phoned SAFE adopter Kitti L to say that her 90 year old mother had a few things she wanted to do before she died. One was to sit on a horse and walk around; she had ridden as a child and young adult. This lady was a female pilot during WWII and…
