Cassidy is adopted!!

Cassidy and her two herdmates were surrendered to SAFE after the sudden and unexpected death of their owner. The three horses had not received proper care for a while, with overgrown hooves and tangled, knotted manes.Cassidy is a strikingly pretty mare, with a lot of spirit and energy. She was started under saddle at SAFE, and showed a lot of promise as a riding horse. Cassidy was successfully adopted in August 2020.
