Volunteer Work Day Feb. 12, 2011 = BIGGEST ONE EVER! Part 3 Horses!

Penny is giving Splash some treats on her way thru the arena. This pic doesn't show but there are some 'whirlwinds' in Splashes beautiful mane, so Penny actually took her out of the arena to fix her up! Penny washed & a Work Day Volunteer did a most beautiful job of ................

BRAIDING her mane!!!!!! Isn't that just gorgeous! AWESOME AWESOME JOB! & Penny did her.........

TAIL! Way to go Ladies! Thank you all so much!

Woody was brought out for some grooming too! He is a gelding that is just so cute, & Up for Adoption! Contact Safe Haven for all the info on Woody, @ 530-347-4941. The little girl brushing Buttercup's tail,...... is Buttercup's new SPONSOR!!!! Yeah! Sponsorship of the horses at Safe Haven, is a win win situation for both Safe Haven & the people who do the sponsorship! Sponsorship is used to cover the food, farrier, & vaccination costs. Once you are a Sponsor, you get to take care of the animal as if it was your own, & it's a perfect way to find out, just how serious your child is about having a horse of their own! Over the years Safe Haven has saved many a parent lot's of money & frustration!

Deena, was out in the little grassy area for awhile on Saturday, but when she 'told' us she was done, & was ready to go back to her pen, her Sponsors Debbie & her Mom, Dee (not in the picture) gladly helped her out! Deena is such a sweet old girl!

Linda R. is moving Tosha, so her pen could be cleaned. Tosha is a recent one-eyed mare & has adjusted to that quite well, but she likes to 'help' & is too often in the way!!!! Tosha is also Up for Adoption!

Cindi has saddled up Gypsy for a little bit of a work out! If you follow Safe Haven's blog you know that Gypsy is one of three, that came in from the 'kill pens'! She's an  Arabian & is coming along nicely.

Bonnie had Gypsy out first for some grooming as needless to say, she needed some De-Mudding!!!!!! There were many more horses that were groomed on this day also. Between the scooping, the lunching, & the grooming, there was just way more activity than we have captured in pictures! So, if by chance we have missed YOU in all the stuff you helped with, we certainly Do Apologize! We also hope to have the Same Problem next month!!!! The Support that was so freely given to the horses was just Heart-Warming, Good for the Soul, Renewing your Faith in Humanity kind of  a day, & We THANK YOU ALL!
