Holly Update — May 17, 2008

Update from Monica Bretherton on her Horsebytes column: http://blog.seattlepi.nwsource.com/horsebytes/archives/139100.asp I am trying to figure out what her Appy pattern would be called. I think Snowcap, because she has no spots, Marble, because of the pattern in her…

Honeycutt Update from May 16, 2008

Liz Stabbert of Liz Stabbert Photography came by yesterday and donated a photoshoot of Honeycutt. I know we often joke about Honeycutt becoming a model.…well apparently it’s no joke to him! He stood nice and still for his close-ups, and conveyed a lot of emotion…

Biscotti — May 15, 2008

Our little colt is doing MUCH better today! Time for his first turnout! He wasn’t so sure he wanted to leave the safety of his stall, and twice he turned around and went back in the stall calling for momma to come back with him (she was eating grass and had no…

Annie Update from May 14 2008

Annie finally got her back feet done with the help of a little sedation. It was a fine line between giving her enough sedation to keep her from kicking (apparantly, she was still hard to do) and not so much where she couldn’t stand. But they got it done. Phew! She…

Biscotti — May 13, 2008

Moonshine is pending adoption, and has been on trial with his potential new owner at SAFE Harbor, taking lessons with Brittney and learning to jump! He’s doing fantastic, we could not be more proud of him. During his pre-purchase exams, a mass was discovered in the…

Summer update

Summer: the ol’ girl keeps on kickin’! Kyle dropped two additional blankets off for the grande dame so her foster caretakers can mix and match as needed. Kyle says that Summer came out to meet her just as bright eyed as she imagined she can be. We’ve been very…

Atticus is finally getting Fat-ticus!

Atticus had an vet exam today, and Dr. Penny feels he is nearly up to weight. He has a fat pad at the tail head! She drew blood for a follow up liver enzymes test, and we should have results tomorrow. She checked his mouth and found nothing unusual to explain his lack…
