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:…
Sasha Update — Apr 27, 2008
Here is Sasha, almost up to weight:
Annie Update from Apr 25 2008
Oh, Annie, Annie, Annie… She’s a little hothead that is for sure. Had a brief visit with her today and while she is very sweet, curious and wanting attention, if you scare her (and she scares easily), her reaction is to pin her ears and act out aggressively. I…
Phoenix Antics
I went to Jaime’s today to turn the boys out since it looked like we were going to get a break from the rain. It has been SOP to lead them both at the same time, and this has not been a problem, but alas I think those days are coming to an end. No sooner did we get…
Sinatra Update from Apr 19 2008
Yesterday I thought Mr. Blue Eyes’ vision might be in real danger… http://blog.seattlepi.nwsource.com/horsebytes/archives/136900.asp Turns out it was my diagnostic skills that are in doubt. Not to mention my ability to close stall doors…
Holly Update — April 18, 2008
From Holly’s foster mom: Holly got her feet done today too. She wasn’t sure that was on her things to do list but Daphine was so patient with her that Holly let her trim her toes. Once again cookies made life better! Daphine was pleased at how the girls are coming…
Deeds Update from Apr 17 2008
Deeds got turned out with my OTTB today for the first time. Here is some pictures, Deeds wasn’t sure about the mini!
Sinatra Update from Apr 17 2008
So Saturday was Kokomo’s day to scare me, and last night was Sinatra’s. He bolted his grain and within seconds was choking. It was 7:30 when it happened and I knew Hannah was in the middle of putting Cadillac down, but I called to give her a heads up and pulled his…
Misty Update from Lisa
We’re on a roll lately. Misty has been absolutely wonderful to ride and handle. Though she can still be a fruitcake on the lunge line (as Kyle witnessed when she came to shoot some video recently), she is really learning connection and trust with me — when she gets…
Moonshine Update
Moonshine was such a superstar at the Haunted Open House! His was the most involved costume of all the horses, and he handled it like…like…like he’d been wearing clothes his whole life. After the party was over, I took several more shots of him hanging out in his…
Dottie the Dragon!
Dottie wore a dragon costume for the Haunted Open House, and she was cute as a bug in her SAFE purple splendor! The base of the costume was a full hooded lyrca slinky, and Dottie was completely unfazed by having it put on her. In fact, once it was on, she seemed happy…
Meet “Trigger,” Roy Rogers’ famous steed!
Just kidding, it’s Phoenix. All the SAFE horses dressed up to celebrate Halloween at the Open House on October 27, and Phoenix’s costume was pretty easy… Here he is in all his palomino glory: Phoenix is…
We have a challenge grant to announce!!!
Our Fall Into Winter Feed Drive is in full swing, and so far the response from our wonderful supporters has been terrific! We are nearly half way to our goal of $15,000 by Nov 30…and it’s still October! That is pretty exciting! All the horses at SAFE are very…
Skye’s transformation!
You’ll often hear us say “it takes a herd to save a horse.” In Skye’s case, it is not a metaphor! In June, Dave Zanotelli and his daughter Julia offered to foster a SAFE horse. They are both very skilled at doing groundwork training and they were willing to take on a…
