Honeycutt Update from Sept 5, 2007

Honeycutt got his feet trimmed yesterday, and he was a superstar for the farrier. Of course we did it all very gently and carefully, but still, he did great and I was very proud of him. A couple days ago, I decided to try lunging him with a surcingle on…he stood…

Buckwheat Update from Sept 4 2007

update from Kathy on Buck and Shante: Hi, Just an update. We took the boys on a trail ride yesterday and today. Of course Shante was as mellow as usual, he did great, kept him at a slow pace though. Bucky on the other hand was his usual lets go and get there first. I…

Buckwheat Update from Aug 22 2007

We’re happy to announce that Buckie has been adopted. (well, I’m heartbroken, but happy nonetheless.) His new home is in Beavercreek, OR, with a wonderful couple — Kathy and Kevin– who were looking for a horse that their grandkids could ride. They met Buckie and…

Honeycutt Update from Aug 22, 2007

Honeycutt is doing very well, and I believe that he is happy living here. He is quite well behaved and easy to handle, and I do feel that I have gained at least some of his trust. I subject him to being touched and petted and patted on a daily basis and he’s quite…

Buckwheat Update from May 7 2007

Since it is downright warm out today and since he has FINALLY finished shedding, Mr Buck got a bath today! As with everything, he was good as gold, even though he’s no big fan of the hose. Look who’s gorgeous: 

Buckwheat Update from Apr 6 2007

BUCKY UPDATE! First off, I’ve got to say that I have gotten really attached to the little bugger. He is sweet and gentle and quiet and just the funniest looking little guy…I’ll post some pictures as soon as my camera battery recharges. He has been shedding copious…

Another setback for Chance

Chance’s shoe boil blew up again and Dr. Hannah was called out yesterday to look at it. Dr Hannah was initially going to just try another round of antibiotics, but after examining it decided that because there was a tremendous amount of fluid and that it should be…

Teaching future vet technicians

Today, a group of Vet Tech students from Pima Medical Institute took a field trip to SAFE Harbor Stables. The goal was to practice doing a physical exam, venipuncture, and administering dewormer. In exchange for providing the opportunity for the students to gain hands…

Ginger & Sinatra = BFF

Ginger and lover boy Sinatra are joined at the hip. She was much more relaxed having a buddy in turnout. They were eatting this close the entire time. Two needy horses found each other and I mean both of them! I thought he wouldn’t leave her but SHE was stuck to him…

Congratulations to River & Jenny!

We are thrilled to announce that River has been adopted! If you’ve been following his story, you know that he went into training with Andrea Lucianna at Half Trak Farm, and after a bit of a slow start while this young horse gained his confidence, he graduated from…

Ginger update

Ginger is settling in pretty well at SAFE Harbor. She’s got some things to learn, but we’re taking it slow and making good progress. She came to us with bad dermatitis along her mane and tail dock that has to be treated, so she is learning how to take a bath. We’re…
