Annie Update from Dec 2 2008

Last report I had from Andrea (which was on Saturday) is that Annie is doing well, but of course is much more reactive than Willow and Andrea is going slow with her…working on desensitizing, learning how to tie and have baths and all that. She’s tacked her up,…

Biscotti — Dec 2, 2008

Hope is up at Julie’s right now, and Scotti is still here with me. Kayo and Scotti are scheduled for their brain surgery on Saturday…then the fun begins of the twice daily forced exercise. *sigh* — I am not looking forward to that part, but am looking forward to the…

Summer Update from Dec 2 2008

Summer is doing really well, and I can see that she feels much better now that she is on the Cushings medications. Her weight is great and she’s a great babysitter to the weanlings. I’ve also seen her gallop across the pasture a couple of times, so she is bright and…

Sasha — Nov 29, 2008

From Megan: We moved Sasha to her new home at Pond-a-Luce‑A Stables today (about 2–3 mins from KCJ). She really enjoys the indoor arena and her new stall. She was excited and unsure of the trailer and it took a little longer than we’d hoped to get her loaded up. But,…

Annie Update from Nov 20 2008

Annie’s doing well. So far Andrea (the trainer) is just getting to know them and working on ground work. Willow is learning to lunge and have things blankets thrown over her back and such in preparation for the saddle. She’s doing more desensitizing work with Annie as…

Holly Update — Nov 19, 2008

From Holly’s adopter: Dr. Hannah was out today to ā€œwinterizeā€ the horses. She gave Holly two thumbs up! We used the measure stick and Holly is now 14.2 1/2 hands tall. She has grown 1 1/2″ since I last measured her in Aug. Holly’s rump is still taller than her…

Annie Update from Nov 16 2008

Annie’s on her way up to training! Annie loaded into the trailer like a champ, but was very nervous when she couldn’t see Willow. She is still so insecure about her place in this world and hopefully her training at Half Trak Farm will…

Deeds Update from Nov 16 2008

Hi there! Quick update for Mr. Deeds… That boy can EAT!!! Luckily, my two other mares are veeery easy keepers, so he kind of balances things out Unfortunately, he has been prone to some skin irritations this winter, as have many horses in our wet county. But, he is…

Foster/Training Update: Ginger

Ginger is coming along well. She now going fairly solid walk/trot and they are working on the canter. Her canter is still very unbalanced and quick due to lack of strength but it is coming along. She has an especially hard time cantering to the right but she does pick…

Volunteer update: Moments with Savannah

Sandi N is a volunteer at SAFE Harbor who has been spending some quality time with Savannah, both as a friend and companion, but also helping her with her fibrotic myopathy. Terry asked Sandi to share her thoughts about her interactions with this lovely mare: Meeting…

Skye Training Update

Skye is currently living up at Half Trak Farm as she begins part 2 of her training journey with Andrea Lucianna. When Skye first arrived at Half Trak, she had a bit difficulty settling in. At first she would not tolerate being in a stall and would pace, refuse to eat,…

New Tires for the SAFE Trailer!

We would like to express our appreciation to Les & Jeannette Parrett and their family for the donation they made to SAFE for the purpose of acquiring new tires for our horse trailer. When we purchased the trailer last year, the safety inspection indicated it was in…

Cameo Update from Training

Cameo is continuing to progress in her work with Andrea Lucianna at Half Trak Farm. It’s been a difficult journey for this mare, and she has her good days and not-as-good days, but she is moving forward all the time. It’s important to keep in mind just how far she’s…
