Holly Update — Mar 15, 2008

Update from Holly’s foster mom: Holly also got her full dose of wormer yesterday. She weighs 680lbs and is 14.1hh. That is done with the weight tape, soon I will use the stick for a more accurate measure. Jamie brought out some grain and they will get started on a…

Sinatra & Phoenix Update from Mar 13 2008

Sinatra is doing very well…much improved. All the horses got wormed yesterday, full dose this time. Both he and Phoenix had a good day yesterday and today, and seem a lot perkier. Crossing fingers this time it stays that way! Update from Monica Bretherton: Cute…

Sinatra Update from Mar 9 2008 — Mar 12 2008

March 9 2008 Sinatra is doing much better today and spent much more of his time up and eating instead of lying down and worrying me. The extra blanket is keeping him nice and warm and we have heat lamps as a backup if needed. He’s just so much scrawnier and weaker…

Holly Update — Mar 11, 2008

From Holly’s foster mom: Holly greeted me when I came out to feed this morning. All of my horses talk to me too. Holly and Emma got an other dusting for the bugs today. I’ll be glad when we are over that. Holly likes her brushings. No need to Thank me. It’s like being…

Phoenix Update

Phoenix’s bloodwork showed him as still a little anemic and protein levels a little low, but this morning he was down but got up by himself this morning. He wasn’t thrilled with his grain last night but this morning I tried it without any grass hay pellets in it and…

Holly Update — March 10, 2009

Update from Holly’s adopter: Holly will be started this year but I’m taking my time with her. I have saddled her and layed across her back. No big deal for her. Her butt has caught up with the withers so maybe she will quit growing. There is no rush to put her to work…

Holly Update — Mar 10, 2008

From Merle, Holly’s foster mom: Holly and Emma are doing great. Holly is a real looker but when Emma sheds out she will be so pretty too. Holly is about 12hh right now. I will measure her in a few days after we get to know each other. Emma isn’t too much shorter, so…

Holly — Initial Intake

Holly is one of 10 horses seized from a property in Carnation as part of a King County Animal Control seizure on Feb. 23, 2008. After spending the first two weeks at Equine Aid rescue, she joined the rest of her herd here at SAFE. Holly is a beautiful appaloosa filly,…

Skye’s First Ride — Video

We couldn’t be more excited to share with you this video taken of Skye’s first experience with a rider in a saddle on her back. We are so proud of our girl and the amazing progress she has made under the guidance of Dave Zanotelli. Dave started fostering SAFE in late…

Atticus Update

Atticus was released from the vet hospital last week and was transported to SAFE Harbor Stables. Six weeks post rescue, he is feeling a lot better…in fact the excitement of moving caused him to get quite amped up! He loaded well into the trailer, but was fairly…

Kai — Available for Adoption once again

Kai is back at SAFE Harbor and is once again available for adoption. Kai was adopted earlier this year to a rider looking for a horse to do low-level eventing and trail riding with. After an extended trial period, things were going quite well for Kai — he was…

Savannah’s Story

If you’ve visited SAFE Harbor Stables in the past few days, you may have noticed there’s another new horse in our herd. Her black and white coat is glossy, her eyes are bright, and she is definitely well fed. If she looks a bit familiar, it’s because she is a former…

Ginger Training Update

Ginger is quickly making progress with Kim Lacy at Hidden Falls Farm! She is longeing in tack and Kim is putting weight on her back with no problem. Kim also reports that Ginger has also learned how to cross-tie and clip well. We’re all very proud of our pretty girl…

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…
