23.01.2022 Hi everyone Some dates to take note of Hoof trimming day is this Saturday, 5th December at 9.30am. We desperately need help on Saturday catching, brushing and holding horses until it’s their turn for their pedicure.... Also with feeding Saturday and Sunday morning 9.15am Thursday 9.15am I will be away as we have had a shocked death in the family and our volunteers need help to feed and water our horses. Every bathtub needs to be emptied, scrubbed and filled daily. There are 13 bathtubs plus water required in tubs in stable. Please everyone when using bore pump check oil and fuel level. The pump is chewing oil and desperately requires a service and is our only water source out here. Also we have Bunnings BBQ on the 20th December and really need help. Need 5 people for each shift. Shifts are- 8am-midday Midday to 4pm Please if you have time or can split a shift with a friend it would be greatly appreciated. Please Message our Facebook page if you can help. In the near future we may be running raffles at #Anna Bay Tavern thanks to unreal publican Ian and will organise this when I return. Thankyou to everyone for your support and help. #annabaytavern #BankDetails St George Bank Acc Name - Hunter Horse Haven Inc.

20.01.2022 Many people would remember Thoroughbred Gabriel who we rescued from a local neglect property a few months ago. He is only 15 years old Gabriel is loving his new life and all the attention our volunteers provide this sweet boy and the yummy feed he receives 3 times a day. He arrived with a body score of 1 out of 10 with the vet and dentist stating he was near death.... Gabriel has come a long way and you can now see the sparkle of life in his eyes which makes all the hard yards to save this boy worthwhile. Enjoy the attached video of Gabriel enjoying a sand roll after receiving a big brush then a bath. Thankyou to everyone who has supported us so we could provide a safe new life for Gabriel. #BankDetails St George Bank Acc Name - Hunter Horse Haven Inc.

19.01.2022 Hi everyone I apologise for not posting but we have had a massive 2 weeks and time has been in very short supply. UPDATE ON ‘K’- K is doing well and loving his new life....Continue reading

17.01.2022 URGENT HELP! DONATIONS NEEDED PLEASE SHARE Tonight I’m asking you for some urgent help. Our bills have risen significantly and coronavirus has really made it so difficult for our organisation. We currently have 31 horses in care. We’re doing great stuff. Our program for mentally disabled and depressed kids is working. The feedback has been amazing.... The family fun day that we run is full of excited kids literally jumping out of their skin but we can’t keep on going live this. The feed bills keep on rising, let alone the ongoing costs for vaccinations, the 6 week trimming of our horses. The list goes on. We desperately need to install posts and railings to create more yards and the depressing thing is that I know that there are so many more horses out there that need help. Many of the horses we receive arrive emaciated like Gabriel who our equine veterinarian stated was near death on arrival, his body score 1 out of 10. Gabriel has a long rehabilitation journey of several months in front of him but with the care provided by our dedicated volunteers Gabriel will regain his health. Gabriel has already regained his hope and vitality noticeable by the wonderful sparkle of life now obvious in his eyes. This is why we exist, to save and change the lives of the many horses in need who need us so much. I also know, unfortunately, that due to the pandemic, the calls for help are going to get louder and louder over the coming months. With so many vet bills due, and one of our feed orders due tomorrow I need to reach out to you for urgent help. We need to raise $20,000. It’s our biggest fundraiser for our rescue yet but without your support we can’t keep doing what we are doing. I get so much pride and join as well as our team of volunteers when we see kids in desperate states getting satisfaction from the horses. It was why I was put on this planet. I firmly believe. Tonight I’m counting on you to allow us to keep on doing what we do best. Just $5 from each and every one of you would get us over the line. It’s just the cost of your next cup of coffee but one that will help us get to our goal. Please donate now: https://hunter-horse-haven-inc.giveeasy.org/urgent-help-nee

16.01.2022 Our goodbye to a very special lady on Saturday night. A beautiful person and her dedication to HHH horses has been amazing and constant. Bee will be missed so very much but is off to Queensland to start a new and amazing life on a property and adopting Mustang, Ruby and Pepper. We will miss you dreadfully but know you will love having an acreage and space around you.... Bon voyage our friend and know we will be thinking of you always.

12.01.2022 Check out how magnificent Ruby looks. Ruby was one of 3 mares we rescued from a Victorian neglect property. Bee has done an awesome job with this stunning mare and has adopted both Ruby and her mum Mustang which means all Victorian mares have found unreal loving homes. This is what makes our role in the Australian Horse Industry so vital and rewarding. I am sure there will be tears when Ruby , Mustang and Pepper leave but the fact they are being adopted by such an awesome, lo...ving person and family makes all the difference. This is why we exist and do what we do. All great news

11.01.2022 Yesterday, Friday, we had a massive hail storm which petrified many of our horses. The older ones that had been through a hail storm before turned their rumps to the deluge, put their heads down and rode it out. But the younger ones panicked and had no idea why they where being pelted with foreign objects. Attached is a video of young Apollo stressing during the hail storm.... The main thing is all horses were safe, none were hurt although Volunteer Bee and I copped lots of hurtful hits from the hail that just kept getting larger as the storm continued. As we threw padded rugs on the oldies and skinnies we got smashed by hail and worried over the young horses who went crazy from the continued large hail stones. We can’t see their bruises but we can feel ours. It was just very lucky that every horse was safe once the storm was over. ******** #BankDetails St George Bank Acc Name - Hunter Horse Haven Inc.

07.01.2022 ‘K’ is doing well and was assessed by our vet yesterday who will return on Monday to further assess this big gentle boy and check if his medication is working. He is such a sweet and kind horse so we are hoping for a positive result on Monday. Today, Thursday, volunteers Sharon and Layla gave gentle giant K a nice bath in horse wash, pinetarsol and conditioner to remove the accumulated dead skin cells and neglect of his skin from his coat. I figured once washed his mane and t...ail would be blond and they are. He loved his bath so well done Sharon and Layla for spending the time to ensure K is clean and comfy. He loves a chat this big boy and nickers every single time he sees you and chatters away constantly in thanks for any attention or feed. He truly is a beautiful boy and we hope the vet report on Monday is positive. Sometimes our job is to rescue a neglected horse and make the hard decisions the owners should of made long ago. We hope that isn’t the case with K. K is currently bright, happy and enjoying his new found life so as usual our volunteers are going above and beyond to ensure his comfort. Well done to all our volunteers who freely donate their time to provide comfort and excellent welfare to all horses. I think you are all amazing. Attached are some photos of K enjoying his bath today. He actually really liked it and must feel heaps better now his coat is clear and clean. Thankyou to everyone who supports our efforts to provide new safe lives for so many horses. *************** #BankDetails St George Bank Acc Name - Hunter Horse Haven Inc.

07.01.2022 Hi all Huge day tomorrow, Saturday Tomorrow Saturday 24th October is our hoof trimming day at approximately 10.30am... Anyone willing to help hold and prepare horses prior to trimming please message our page as we need help. The horses enjoy a pat and brush prior to trimming and there are many horses having their hooves done so please if you are free it would be great if you could help. Also at approximately 2.30pm we DESPERATELY need man strength to unload 150 x 20kg feed bags from a truck and place them in our shipping container. We unfortunately don’t have a forklift or any machinery to move the 3 pallets of feed from the truck to shipping container so desperately need people with the strength to carry a 20kilo bag of horse feed. So horses will be fed at approximately 9am Hoof trimming at approximately 10.30am until approx. 2pm Unloading of 150 bags of horse feed at approx. 2.30pm. Yes it’s a huge day so if anyone can help pop out to Anna Bay and help feed, hold a horse or unload the truck load of feed please message us for our address.

06.01.2022 FUNDRAISER TOWARDS OUR VET BILLS AND BULK FEED ORDER Hi everyone I am desperately hoping people can help us by donating $5 each towards our vet and feed bills.... Our goal is to raise $6000 As one if not the largest Charitable Horse Rescue in NSW we are continually working hard to help horses not only taken into our care but abandoned and neglected horses on properties. We have colts we rescued previously now due to be gelded and an outstanding vet account for the recent underweight horses we received. We are still trying to cover the vet costs of saving Mae’s life and the additional costs of vaccinating and microchipping several horses prior to them leaving for their new adoptive homes. Our vet is awesome and looks at many of our horses free of charge and attends neglect properties with us at no cost but cannot provide every single service free of charge. We have purchased a bulk feed order to ensure we have a few months of feed in stock in the case COVID yet again impacts on us. We are having monthly Bunnings BBQ’s but it seems people aren’t as prepared to buy a sausage sandwich as they use to. Please if you can spare $5 or more we are a Registered Not-For-Profit Charity with Deductible Gift Recipient Status so any donation of $2 or more is tax deductible. We work very hard to help horses both locally and on a National basis via rehabilitation and forcing positive change in the archaic Australian Horse Industry. Your help and support would be extremely appreciated. Sincerely Debbie Barber Hunter Horse Haven Inc Public Officer #BankDetails St George Bank Acc Name - Hunter Horse Haven Inc.
