Field trip! Anderson River Park on Labor Day!

A Monday holiday is always fun @ Safe Haven!!!! This last Labor Day they all went to Anderson River Park for a nice relaxing ride. In front, is Linda R. on her horse CJ, & Chrissy, is on Safe Haven's permanent resident, Denny. Bonnie on her adopted beautiful Flower, & Holly on her adopted Lovie. What a nice place for a ride!

Here's Tracey on her adopted appy, Bailey! Bailey was rescued from slaughter by the Equine Angel, Shirley Puga. Tracey went w/ Linda to meet the transport lady, Marlene, & when she saw Bailey come out of the trailer.........well as we say.......she was in horsey love!
Bonnie's Flower, came in to Safe Haven, because she injured her knee in a horse trailer foopaw,,,,,,,Flower ended up w/ a hairline fracture in her knee........& her Dressage career was over :( She was a 3rd level dressage horse. Flower is all healed up now, & Bonnie takes very good care of her girl! Flower is the 'Prima Donna' of Safe Haven!!!!! Holly's Lovie, came to Safe Haven in a very EMACIATED state, she was 400lbs under weight!!!!! :( Lovie has a bond w/ 'her' Holly that is a thing of beauty! They are quite the pair! Flower is a water dog! She puts her head in her water bucket & splashes till most of the water is gone! I call it 'cleaning out her sinuses!


Chrissy, a faithful sponsor, & volunteer, is riding Denny, a beautiful buckskin mare who has been retired to Safe Haven as she has a bone spur in her knee. Denny came from a lady that placed another horse at Safe Haven, Cokie,(who is a whole other story!)




Linda's CJ, had her jaw broke, when she was young :/, it has been repaired & she has no trouble eating. She has a tooth sticking out on one side, kind of like Nanny McFee!!!!!!! She's a very lucky girl!






Whoa Flower where ya going? That's what I think Bonnie is saying,just by looking at this pic! All these horse have a past, but they are still alive & well & living w/ their disabilities!


Hope you enjoyed the beautiful pictures taken on 'the Crews' outing!!!!!
Bye for now.
Linda C.
