Dear Groomers and Bloomers:
Things got really slow with the virus quarantines last month - but things are starting to pick up. Folks are coming out to see horses and the event season is in full swing.
We had a ranch that was shut down and a number of horses, and a couple of donkeys that were headed to auction as per the owner. A young woman stepped forward to get them placed first. We got them posted on the website pronto and made lots of calls. They have all made it into good homes except for Medicine Chex.
Adoptions: Alice, Tiago, Raggs, Bill, Ginny and Fanny, Ziggy.
Where are all the lonely horses?? We have a couple of lovely mares that need homes.
PLEASE pass the word!!

Stable Acres has openings for Boarding
Even tho their website says they are full; since we are there due to Jodi's generosity - we happen to know they have a couple of openings. This is a fabulous place for a horse; all HUGE runs and paddocks and pastures. A round pen, an arena and wash rack. Located between Penngrove and Petaluma just off Old Adobe Rd. Calm and quiet - unless the horses are making the noise. Call Jodi at 707-549-3945.

Auction Actions:
We will no longer be having auction "Drives." It has come to our attention that there are those that believe that taking their horse to auction will result in it being "saved" by SAFER. Please know that we go to the auction relatively rarely. Please call us if you need to surrender a horse and we can discuss your options.
If you want us to support saving the auction horses please DONATE on the website by Paypal or Credit Card and indicate what for in the notes section. We will go when we have enough money and space and make a report after the fact. I hope this works.
