  • Heaven Can Wait Equine Rescue

Heaven Can Wait Equine Rescue Heaven Can Wait Equine Rescue is located in Cameron, Ontario, Canada - approx 2 hours NE of Toronto, just 10 minutes North of Lindsay.
(24)

This Equine Rescue was started by Claire Malcolm in 1997 to help save horses and ponies from slaughter, and take in any unwanted horse or pony and find them a new, loving home. Not all Horses at HCW are old and lame, or come from abusive/neglective situations, some come from private individuals who want to find a good home for their horse, but don't have the time or knowledge to sell it privately,

but don't want to send it to an auction, so they send them here to HCW to find a good home. As you know horses that end up at auctions do have a chance to get bid on by a caring family home, but they also risk the chance of being bid on by a bad home or worse, the meat man. HCW has found loving new homes for over 1500++ equines in the past 25 years (& has even helped find new homes for a few donkeys, pigs, goats, cats & dogs along the way!).

I MAY be late opening the tack shop today so please check in with me (by email or text) before you head over just to make sure I am here. I have an appointment with a specialist this morning and I will be home in time as long as they are running on time. Fingers crossed I will get some help after all these years of pain :(

Hi All.
Sorry I am a little late again with the weekly update. Perhaps I will try twice a month instead of weekly. Just never enough hours to fit everything in. I always say I could use another me, or a secretary lol. It's very true especially lately with me only feeling 50% myself for the past 3 years (one doctor appointment after another, with still no answers) :(

Since the last update Magic continues to do well in her new forever home.

I am still enjoying Kellie and Bella's company for 2 more weeks before they leave to their forever home.

We had the vet out to float Dino's teeth on June 14th. We tried to have a good look at his tattoo but it's too faded to ready properly but we do believe the first letter is an E which would
make him 23 years old. He was a perfect gentleman for the vet.
A few people have asked how Dino is with mares so we tried putting 2 mares into the field adjoining his field but it didn't go well, he was running the fence line, hollaring away and trying to get in with them and got himself all worked up into a sweat. So if you want the sweet well behaved calm Dino that we know and love I would suggest he be with geldings only, with no mares immediately next to him. After we put the mares back in to their usual field (about 30 feet away) he settled right back down again to his normal sweet happy self again.

Our June online auction went OK. Not great, but not terrible. I will now start working on the August one. Stay tuned. If you have any questions or suggestions about the auction or if you have anything you would like to donate for it, please PM me. Thank you. I think that's it for the update.

Payton, Brie, Amia, Peanut and Dino are still waiting for their forever homes. ❤️🐴

Weekly update: Sorry I skipped a week, too much going on as always. Never enough hours in a day. Since my last update.... We delivered Magic to her amazing new home. I am missing her terribly but she is happy and spoiled in her new home. Bella and Kellie have been adopted to a wonderful family but they don't leave here til July 3. It will be hard to see them leave so I was happy about being able to have the extra 6+ weeks with them. ♥️ May 28 was Farrier day. Thanks Kate for your patience with little Payton ♥️ Brie, Payton, Peanut, Amia and Dino are still available for adoption. ♥️
I managed to get the online auction finished just in time, it's now up and running, from June 5-12. I have been doing the online auctions every other month to keep the funds coming in for hay, feed, supplements, vet, teeth floats, farrier, shavings, etc. Our next one will be in August. Please comment or PM me for the June link. ❤️ We finished the new pony shelters and fence project. Just need to do the dividing fence now. Thanks to my hubby for his hard work and to my M+D for paying for this project! 🐴♥️

I am hoping to start posting a weekly update starting with this one .... Our dear sweet adorable Magic who has been with us for 4.5 years has a wonderful adoptive home lined up. As long as she hits it off well with her new arab gelding friend tomorrow when we deliver her then she will have an excellent home there for the rest of her days. If not she will always have a forever home with us ♥️ We have a great home lined up for Kellie and Bella and it should be finalized today. Sorry it took so long to make a decision and I appreciate all of the inquiries for them. I was holding out for a trail riding/backyard/family type home who would adopt them together, and we finally found that family. ♥️ Brie, Payton, Peanut, Amia and Dino are still available for adoption. This photo of Peanut was just taken yesterday. Her summer coat is very different than her black winter fuzzy coat ♥️ We have been running an online auction every other month to keep the funds coming in for hay, feed, supplements, vet, farrier, etc. Our next one is June 5-12. Please comment or PM me for the link. Thanks ❤️ 🐴

Please Meet Dino ♥️ This big sweet handsome fella settled in right away and buddied up immediately with little Payton. We were told he's 23 yrs old and approx 16.2hh. He has a lip tattoo which we will have a closer look at and see if it's legible. The info we were told was "Dino used to be a racehorse, then a hunter, then dressage and the last 5 years a lesson horse." We were told he was sold through a horse sales facility in Napanee last fall. He's now only suitable for light riding at a walk. He's underweight and needs more than just hay. We currently have him on free choice hay and he comes in twice a day for his hay cubes, feed and supplements. He is very laid back and sweet but doesn't like to come into the barn alone so I imagine he would be the same way with riding. He gets along great with the 2 pony geldings we have him in with now. Anyone recognize Dino? More Details to come.

Sorry everyone for my late replies and lack of posts. Been a crappy few months with losing Spice and Minnie and Fatty 💔 I knew Spice's time was coming but Minnie and Fatty passing were very unexpected and it's all just been too much on my old heart :(
And these online auctions I have been running are so time consuming but I need to keep doing them to keep the money coming in to the rescue as the hay, feed, supplement, vet, farrier bills never stop coming in. Currently Available for Adoption - Magic, Payton, Brie, Kellie, Bella, Amia and Peanut. Please Scroll Down This Page for More Info and Photos. If You Aren't in a Position to Adopt We Have Several Permanent Residents Who Would Love a Sponsor or You Can Make a Donation Towards Any of the Ones Who Are Waiting to be Adopted ♥️ Every Little Bit Helps.
