Bella isn't well

Bella has taken a turn for the worst and we have had the vet out to do more tests including a stomach tap. Her stomach fluid was yellow not clear which isnt good and the vet seems to think she has Peritonitis which is inflammation of the pesitineum. We should have the results back today and until then she is on a high dose of omagurad and antibiotics. Please pray for bella.





If you can help with Bella's treatment by making a tax deductible donation please that would help more than you know. Please email if you require a receipt. saveahorseaustralia@yahoo.com.au

We have a new rescue horse

This is Judge, he is a 17hh TB gelding who was surrendered with chronic stifle lock. Judge isn't a happy horse and is kicking out and isn't friendly at all. He is in quite a bit of pain and has been started on joint formula as well as being booked into the chiropractor.

Judge is also looking for some sponsors, if your interested in sponsoring Judge to help with his rehabilitation please email me saveahorseaustralia@yahoo.com.au for more information. Sponsorship cost $10 per week and lasts while the horse is in care.

Many Thanks x

Tyson - Healing hearts

Tyson was surrendered earlier this year due to going blind. He is only 3 years old and had an accident which damaged the optic nerves in both eyes. Many people said he should have been put down but losing his sight hasn't fazed this amazing boy and he is now working with Harmony Hooves Healing Hearts helping disabled and disadvantaged people and has done work with Vision Australia. If you saw how this horse interacts with the people he is helping you would be amazed. He is a real healer, truly one in a million.

We rely on the public and desperately need help

Bad economical times have seen a huge influx of horses requiring help and have also seen a decline in financial support. If we could get just 1000 people to donate just $2 per week this would help more than you know. We are fully registered 100% not for profit and are run solely by volunteers.

Cash flow is something that we need most when rescuing horses. There are always a lot of ongoing expenses including feed, vet, farrier, dentist cost etc. If you are in a position to offer us an ongoing weekly donation please consider setting up a direct debit each week into our account. Once again using only your surname as the reference. Email us your name and address and at the end of the month you will get a month receipt. Our monthly expenses are well into the thousands and if we could get just 1000 people to donate just $2 per week that would help more than anything. Not many people would even miss the $2 per week which would go along way to help our sanctuary rescue these amazing animals. Please help us by being a regular supporter.
