Deeds Update from Sept 29 2007
Picture time! I worked with Deeds today and I must say I LOVE this horse!! He is so sweet and willing and reminds me a lot of my Slam. I took him out and Allison and I put him in the crossties and brushed him and cleaned him up. He was a very good boy and stood…

Honeycutt Update from Aug 22, 2007
Honeycutt is doing very well, and I believe that he is happy living here. He is quite well behaved and easy to handle, and I do feel that I have gained at least some of his trust. I subject him to being touched and petted and patted on a daily basis and he’s quite…

We had a little dress up fun with Kat this last week and she looks amazing! Sara E., one of our fabulous volunteers, brought her western barrel saddle over to Safe Harbor for us to borrow. The western saddle is heavier than the English saddle that Kat had been using…

Carrie Gouldin came to SAFE at the perfect time: our new Barn Manager, Terry, needed some help to get the barn in order and to manage the horses during some vacation she had planned. Carrie was ready, willing and able to fill both of those needs, and she came to us…
