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,…

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. ā€¦

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 ā€œofficiallyā€ adopted Sasha, I can share these photos of her. Sasha was one of 7 horses we ā€œboardedā€ for Snohomish County Animal Control, beginning in early March, after being spending the first couple of weeks after the Elledge seizure at the Enumclaw…

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…

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…
