** Adoption Fee/Purchase Price: $300 - This Week Only **
** We have at least $600+ invested into Bella with her hay, feed, supplements, deworming, farrier, vet, etc but we cannot help more horses, ponies and donkeys until we find good homes for the ones that are here. To take advantage of this $300 sale price you must have your application approved, pay for Bella in full and have her picked up (or delivered at your expense) on or before Oct 4, 2009. Bella needs and deserves a good permanent loving home. She has been patiently waiting since Aug '09 and not one person has come to see her yet **

Company / Facility:
Heaven Can Wait Equine Rescue - Heaven Can Wait Equine Rescue is located in Cameron, Ontario, Canada - approx 1.5 hours NE of Toronto, just 10 minutes North of Lindsay. 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 700+ equines in the past 12 years (& has even helped find new homes for a few donkeys, pigs, goats, cats & dogs along the way!).
