Dolly meets Kailee, the Equine Chiropractor!

 Dolly met Kailee, the Equine Chiropractor the other day, & she was a little shy at first BUT after a few well placed 'moves ' I think she said she was in LOVE!!!!
Safe Haven's founder Linda R. found out that Dolly had somehow fell into the ravine the previous owners used to dump their poop in, & was head first going down hill & that she could NOT get  her self UP! So Linda figured she could probably really use an adjustment!


 She is just getting started w/ Dolly here. That's Freckles & Bobby socks in the other pen, watching what going on! Freckles got adjusted a few days later too!
That's the spot! Right there Kailee, that's where my headache always is!!! Isn't she just loving that? 
Kailee's business is called Happy Horse Adjusting  530-515-5979  At Safe Haven recent Play Day Kailee did adjustments on horses & donated the $ to Safe Haven! THANK YOU KAILEE!!!!
 Now Kailee is doing some neck exercises for our Dolly. Dolly has settled in nicely at Safe Haven & talks to you when you're bringing her, her food! For the first couple of weeks, we like for them to just settle in & get to know that; they Will get fed regularity, & Yes there Will be treats & YES there will lot's of Pets & Hugs!
 More adjusting on the neck! Kailee also worked on Big D, the thoroughbred, Andy the Great Grandson to Secretariat, & Billy another T/B that very same day!
 Kailee brings her 'bench' with her but ya know sometimes it's just NOT TALL ENOUGH!!!! Kailee just couldn't get enough leverage to adjust Dolly's hips!
SO she figured out how to get HIGHER!

Safe Haven has Dolly on joint supplements as she is a Draft & those poor ole legs Do Carry around a lot of weight!




                                                 
 So Kailee used part of Dolly's pen to get up higher!!!!! Brave young gal!!!!

 We sure hope to see you soon out to Safe Haven Horse Rescue! We always welcome the public & like to give ya a 'tour' of all the horses.
Bye for now,
Linda C.,

The BIG BOY came to play too!!!!

When, we all see this big guy come up to join the Costume Class, we all were just astounded!!! He is soooo Handsome!!! &&& BIG! His owners actually said that according to his measurements he is the second largest Percheron EVER!
He bucked on Mom, later in the day, & he was grounded & sent to his room! for the rest of the show!!!!!!! This was the first show they both had ever done so all in all, he wasn't too bad!
Well, it's time to feed the horses out @ Safe Haven Horse Rescue!
Bye for now,

Safe Haven Horse Rescue's Fall Play Day!

The Fairies & Goblins showed up for the Costume Class for Safe Haven Horse Rescue's Fall Play Day!!! There was also Indian Maidens, Cowboys, Jockeys, Patriots to name a few of the class. (I will post more pics of the costumes as the pics become available to me)  Lindsy is riding Judd, A 20+ year old Medicine Hat Paint Gelding, who needs his eye removed. He's such a Good Ole Boy, we hope to raise the $900+ soon for his surgery!
Well, I was in the announcer's booth, so this is the back side of the Costume Class!!!! The Judging was so close that Linda R & Cori M. awarded 2 FIRST PLACES & 2 SECOND PLACES RIBBONS!!!
Safe Haven Horse Rescue has now available for purchase these Wonderful ActiVEX products for sale on our website! We have been 'trying' them out on a few select horses, & Deena (the emaciated, stoved-up paint mare) is doing awesome on the joint supplement! I saw her myself running in the arena w/ no stiffness in her back end & she was a bucking & running little gal!!!! If you have an Oldie but a Goodie, you should give this stuff a try!
LOOKY LOOKY, what Cori had to offer to the people who came to our Play Day!!!! When a person bought $5.00 or $10.00 in regular raffle tickets, you got a Blue Ticket for the Portable DVD Player OR the BMX Bicycle!!! OR you got a RED Ticket for the Vizoi 42" flat screen HD TV!!!!!! They were DOOR PRIZES! It was so very nice to offer a SPECIAL TREAT to all the Wonderful People who came out to support Safe Haven!!!!
This is Saber, a Safe Haven Lesson Horse with my 2 Grand Daughters!!!!! Lydia & Lindsy, Saber has his tie-dye reins on & has peace signs on his bod, as he & Lyd were Hippies for the Costume Class!!!!
Karlie D.  & her cousin, needed water for their horses & since the only water faucet was a ways away from the trailer they grabbed Karlie boyfriend & the three of them carried the water back to the horse!!! Good Job!
Valerie showed up to ride the gelding she has been training for the last couple of years! She has done a Stellar job on this handsome guy! He was very good at the Play Day!
Darren, THE BAR-B-QUER! got to take a little break & have a sit down in the shade w/ his Grandson Ryan!
