The Horse and Pony Protection Association of Newfoundland and Labrador is the only organization in Eastern Canada that provides care for equines in need.

Our organization is a registered charitable organization which operates the Hopeall sanctuary.  Our budget is lean and all funds raised through donations go directly to providing care for our horses and ponies.

HAPPA-NL provides much needed care for horses and ponies that have become either unwanted, neglected, abandoned, abused or harmed.

A volunteer board of directors provide guidance and volunteer extensively with a group of other volunteers to operate both the association and our sanctuary. 

A comment often made which quickly resolves any issue is quite simply summed up with “What about the Horses and Ponies… What’s best for them?”  Doing what is right and never turning an equine in need away are two key fundamentals that guide our organization.

HELP HAPPA-NL HELP PONIES LIKE HOLLY

A beautiful 9 year old Welsh Pony mare named Holly was a resident at our HAPPA-NL Hopeall Sanctuary.  She arrived in June 2009 and had a number of health conditions making her quite uncomfortable.  She suffered for some time with health problems and we worked hard to rehabilitate her.  We did everything we could to help her and bring her back to good health.  She received vet care, medication, expert farrier care and daily care from our sanctuary care team . 

Holly has since been adopted by a horse health care professional in Massachusetts.

 
Text Box: UPDATE HAPPA-NL has linked to CanadaHelps to provide secure online donation capability. Donating is safe, secure, fast and easy. Make one time or automatic monthly donations. Donation receipts are emailed immediately or mailed at your request. Text Box: RESCUE - REHABILITATE - REHOME Text Box: HAPPA rescues horses and ponies that need our help. Once we have performed the rescue and have ownership of a horse or pony, the second step is rehabilitation. Our Sanctuary Care Team are horse experts who provide amazing care to our residents. The rehab process varies in terms of both time and intensity depending on the condition upon arrival and the treatment. Due to the graphic nature of some of our findings we have chosen to show the ‘after’ pictures on the web site. Should you want proof and wish to see the turnaround stories with picture proof, please email us. We find great new homes for our horses and ponies. We check and re-check potential homes and verify that the folks know the commitment and are comfortable with the care, requirements and responsibility. At HAPPA, the horses and ponies need your help and donations to provide care for more cases of abuse, neglect and abandonment. Providing expert care costs money and we survive only on donations.
