Summer Background

Summer is one of the Jean Elledge horses from Snohomish County that SAFE has been quietly caring for since last March. Now that the case has ended and all the horses have been signed over to SAFE, it is time for her story to be told. Summer, whose registered name is…

Sinatra Update from Mar 6 2008 — Mar 7 2008

Sinatra’s trimming..his feet were the worst of all the babies.  Photos in album include before and after photos.   You can see an old, grown out abcess in one foot.   Also a few photos of Kokomo and Sinatra taking a nap after their trims. â€Ś

Sinatra Update from Mar 5 2008

Sinatra was wormed yesterday and has the runs and is a bit less than his usual chipper self. Other than that though he is doing well — I think they all want to have more outside time and get out of the stall, but we have to ease them onto grass slowly.

Sasha — Intake — March 5, 2008

Now that we have “officially” adopted Sasha, I can share these photos of her. Sasha was one of 7 horses we “boarded” for Snohomish County Animal Control, beginning in early March, after being spending the first couple of weeks after the Elledge seizure at the Enumclaw…

Sinatra Update from Mar 3 2008

From Bonnie: I am here to tell you that everything you’ve heard about Sinatra is true. He is the friendly, most social, most outgoing little horse I have ever had the pleasure to meet. He is much smaller than his stall mate Kokomo and their neighbor Phoenix, but that…

A Visit with Phoenix

Phoenix continues to improve every day, and is becoming a bright, curious and loving foal who thankfully now only seems to be lying down when he takes a snooze. He is maintaining a normal body temperature now too. He loves attention…he nickers when he sees you…

Deeds Update from Feb 29 2008

Deeds is doing great! His under-saddle work with Lucy continues to get better and better, and she has nothing but good things to say about this boy. She tells me that he catches on to new things faster than any horse she has ever met. If they work on something one…

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…
