Fostering a horse: either temporary or long term;

FOSTERING:
We need foster “parents” to help us with recovering horses, and so that we can make resources available for other confiscated animals desperately needing our help. Some horses just need to rest and relax for a couple of months before we can re-home them, some just need to be given a stable routine and good handling.
If you can offer the following: · sound equine knowledge · stabling and paddocks · access to veterinarians · TIME to spend with recovering/fostered horses · the financial ability to feed and care for horses 

RE-HOMING
While foster care is temporary, re-homing is permanent.
For horses, ponies and donkeys which are sound in mind and body and are of an age that they can be re-homed. If you are in a position to give a horse, pony or donkey a permanent home, please contact us.

RE-HOMING PROCEDURE
Re-homing is a serious business and requires long-term commitment. The procedure is as follows:

1. Complete the prescribed application form below (applicants must be over 18 years old)
Anyone over 18 may make an application or an adult may apply on behalf of a minor on the form provided.

2. Whilst in their care, all costs relating to the equine are to be met by the re-homer

INSPECTIONS
1. The CHCU will inspect the equine unannounced at regular intervals.
2. The CHCU maintains the right to remove any equine found to be in ill health or mistreated or if any of the conditions of the adoption agreement is breached.

  • a) Remember horse welfare in your will – leave a legacy: Our goal is to provide life-saving care for abused and injured equines, but if we are to try and end the suffering and improve the standards for working equines for the long term, we need to look to the future. We must ensure that we have the resources needed to ease their pain — or better still, prevent it from occurring in the first place. We respectfully request that you consider including a legacy in your Will, to the CHCU. In doing so you will continue to help us treat these animals as long as they need it; and also to continue to teach owners how to care for their donkeys and horses.
  • b) “In Memory” donations
  • c) tribute gifts – for family or friend’s Birthdays or Anniversaries
