HHHR is absolutely amazing! I went to buy a rescue mini from them and saw this beautiful appaloosa boy who was looking for a home. We were one of several individuals who wanted this boy. Teresa did a virtual home visit and we were told she picked us for our beloved Tank. He came home and months later, I saw the original little guy still waiting for a home! Poor Doc was a difficult placement and we just had to have him. We went down and picked him up and our family was complete. HHHR has a beautiful facility and the animals are so loved and nursed back to health. I would not go any other place to adopt a loving horse!

Howey Horse Haven is actually heaven on earth for rescued horses and donkeys! Teresa and Alan always provide the best of care no matter what the horses need - their love for these rescues is demonstrated daily through ensuring the horses have everything the could need or want❤️ - their knowledge of caring for horses go far and beyond than just basic needs.
I have been volunteering with the rescue for 3 months and if I could give the rescue more than 5 stars - I would!

I was told about this facility through a friend and we decided to attend one of their open-Saturdays, before all happened with the pandemic. We were instantly greeted with a smile and offered a tour of the facility. We were introduced to their new intakes at the time, Jasmine, Mary Jane, and Rowan. They were very lovely and I was in awe of the educated lady who was giving us the tour, Katie, and the exquisite care all the rescues were receiving. The team was very welcoming and immediately created a warm and open atmosphere, making us feel like we've been friends for years. They even served us lunch! I would recommend taking a trip out to this place and admiring the dedication the HHHR team has for looking after and taking care of these horses!

I have worked in animal related organizations for over 30 years. I have worked at shelters and with canine rescues. The people at Howey Horse Haven Rescue are some of the most compassionate people I have met. They are all volunteers giving up their time to care for the abused and neglected horses in their care. They care greatly for both the animals in their care and the people who come to volunteer. I would unreservedly recommend the Howey Horse Haven Rescue to anyone who wishes to donate their time, money or sorely needed supplies.

This was the first horse rescue I ever volunteered with back when they started a bit over 5 years ago. I saw many lives both from equines and humans change for the better after coming through the gates. They are a great asset to the community for what they do to help those in need of rehabilitation. They are 100% volunteer run and rely on donations to do what they do. The horse pictured here is Ms Daisy. Her and her companion Big John were just a couple of the horses they have helped. Sadly Ms Daisy has passed due to old age complications and I greatly miss her. But I am so glad she had HHHR to take her and Big John in when they needed help. Her last couple years on the earth were at HHHR as sanctuary and Big John is still with them in sanctuary as well.

Howey Horse Haven is a wonderful non-profit run off of love by the founder and a great group of volunteers. They are warm loving people caring for abused and neglected horses, minis, donkeys, and even a pig! They survive through generous donations from people who appreciate all that they do. They have to rehabilitate a lot of these poor animals to learn to trust and love again so they can be adoptable and go to loving homes. Please help them by donating whatever you can to this great team of people.

This Non Profit just fell in my lap while seeing it on facebook. My husband and I decided last minute to stop by one afternoon. we have been to many non profits and I was surprised at how clean it was. also how well kept the horses were. we spent a couple of hours there and really spent time talking to the owners Teresa and Allen. The kindness and knowledge I received left me speechless. Then lunch came for the volunteers and sitting listening to the volunteers and the owners made one thing very clear , this wasn't just a non profit this was a loving family. My husband and I ended up being foster parents to two mini horses and Teresa was very patient with helping me with everything I didn't know, and believe me, I took up a lot of her time with questions. I strongly believe we were put here by God. we were able to help two babies that needed us but we have friends that will last a lifetime. please take time and visit this rescue, you will be changed. if you can't visit please donate!!!! you will feel blessed to be apart of this wonderful non profit

Howey Horse Haven has been one of the best things to ever happen to me. I want to become a vet, but that requires a lot of volunteer hours even in high school. No other rescue would allow me to help at my age. However, Teresa quickly welcomed me to the family, and I couldn’t be happier. The group is incredible and very clearly loves every single animal that comes through the rescue.

As I was in search of a mini to round out our herd of two horses, instead of buying from a breeder I came across HHHR. As a proud adopter of numerous rescue dogs I knew I wanted to support their efforts. We now own a sweet rescue named Bitsy and we thank Theresa and Lisa and Kim for their efforts to give these sweet animals a deserving chance. Bitsy has been with us for about an month and she is loving her new pasture mates and being loved on and cared for daily - all thanks to the devoted HHHR!

I began volunteering at HHHR at the first of the year and have had the most enjoyable, fulfilling, educational and satisfying experience of my life. I have always had a deep love for the equine community and wanted to volunteer at a facility that would help me learn, feel confident and love on these gorgeous creatures. Teresa has a unique ability to quickly assess the needs of new intakes and pours her heart, soul and resources into providing whatever is necessary to rehabilitate each horse. The volunteers are truly a team (family) that are all devoted to do whatever it takes to help with the efficient operation of the rescue. Love it and I’ll stay as long as they will keep me. One huge need they do have from the community is donations wheither monetary, supplies or volunteers, please help and donate now ❤️

In late 2017, my husband and I purchased a 5 acre property that came fully equipped for horses with a pole barn, pastures, and wash out area. The only problem was, we did not know a thing about horses. Through an internet search, I found HHHR and reached out. I felt was nervous as I sent the email, what if they thought I was a crackpot? Some city slicker who moved to a farm and all of a sudden thought she was pioneer woman? Instead, Teresa was kind and welcoming. She assured me that with time and dedication, she could help me learn what I needed to know. I attended the very next volunteer day and have not missed one since. It is wonderful to see the difference that Teresa makes in the lives of these horses and in the people that come to help. This isn't just a rescue, it's a family. Please consider donating to this amazing rescue. Every dollar they receive goes right back into caring for these special animals.

Without a doubt, since moving to Florida nine months ago, my involvement with HHHR is one of the most satisfying, happy, rewarding experiences of my life. The love and care the horses that are rescued by HHHR are given is something to experience. We are currently helping to rehab four of their miniature horse rescues, to bring them to their very best, with the hopes of the end result of being adopted into great homes. Teresa and her team of volunteers are so appreciative and I could not imagine working with any other horse rescue but HHHR. Please donate in any way you can as every single penny from every single dollar goes right to the horses and no one else. #bethegood

HHHR is a rescue for neglected and abused horses and other animals that find a second chance at living out their lives at the rescue and for those that can be brought back to health through love, attenton, medical care and months of rehabilitation and can then be adopted. Their volunteer, sponsorships, and therapy programs are only a few ways people who love horses can become involved. It's a special place you should come visit.

I first came to Howey Horse Haven after a very hard time in my life. Everything was turned upside down. My world had been shattered and I was at an all time low.
Volunteering here has changed so much! I can't say that things in my life are as good as they were, but the time I spend with the horses, TT and all the other volunteers has truly started to heal me.
Coming in I didn't know what to expect, didn't know if I would be excepted, but now, I feel like a member of the family. Everyone is so kind and welcoming. What stands out the most, is the true love and dedication to these horses! Everyone pulls together and gives everything they have to help give the horses a true second chance!
HHHR is truly dedicated to each and every horse and being just a small part of the amazing things they do for these animals is truly an honor! Though my commute is pretty long, 45 minutes, I cannot imagine not being a part of this team! The Saturdays I am unable to come, or that HHHR is closed are the longest ones for me! Howey Horse Haven and the people I've come to call my friends are good for my heart and the horses are absolutely good for my soul!

I have experienced another horse organization close to HHHR and they were rude, over worked their horses, and they were very porrly taken care of! I found this organization on the internet, my first day there I felt right at home and apart of the family! Alan, Teresa, and Lary have taken my self esteem from nothing to realizing my potential and importance! I own my life to HHHR and their crew by allowing my clumsy self to have an important role in the organizations uprising! Great place!

My granddaughter volunteers at the Howey Horse Haven and sends me pictures of the horses in need.  She cares for all of them and tells me their stories and hardships, sometimes with tears. Thank you all for helping mold my granddaughter into a caring, passionate person.  She loves all the horses and the people who work and volunteer there.

I must say that I was very impressed with this Horse Haven... The amount of time and dedication that goes into the horses are impressive.. At first i wasn't expecting much but after attending the rescue to volunteer I have to say that the people that sponsor this place definitely have a heart for the horses. It takes alot to put in the time and dedication that is required to take care of any animal, especially a horse.. They are very perceptive when interacting with humans and in a sense can tell when people are ingenuous.. I have to thank Allen, Larry, and most of all Teresa for having a heart to care for one of natures most beautiful and useful creations. It takes a special person to want to take care of something or someone with so much passion without any sort of monetary motivation..
May God continue to bless you guys and may others find inspiration in their hearts to want to follow by your example...

I would like to say a few words about Howey Horse Haven Rescue. I have known the managers of this rescue for about two years now. In that time I found them to be compassionate and loving people. They take excellent care of the animals that are brought to them and I had to surrender an animal to them I know that it would receive the same love and care that I would give it myself.

Every Saturday you will find my friend Charlotte and me at the Howey Horse Haven & Rescue. The folks out there call us Grandma. These are really kind and caring kids or should I say young adults. Theresa and Alan, the owners, plus the horses and ponies have helped shape the kind of people these youth will become. If their actions now are any indication of the adults they will become we are proud to be their grandmas ! But back to the horse haven....all of this is not free because it takes a lot of money to keep all the horses and ponies they have out there. Momma Teresa (no pun intended) is a miracle worker when it come to saving really neglected horses. She knows just what to do. I personally know that one new horse went down one night and she and Alan got up 3 times to get that horse on its feet and walked for 2 or 3 hours. They responsibly went to work the next day! They still have time to help kids and older adults like me. If you can please help support this oh so worthy charity's mission come on out and make friends with all of us. You will see first hand I am telling the truth.

Having moved from the Northeast about one year ago, we had the luck of meeting Howey Horse Haven, it's leaders, volunteers and some of the mini's within our first month here. The passion, love and dedication of all involved at HHH was immediately felt. Subsequently we have visited the rescue farm many many times and have always been received with open arms and hearts - as they do for all the horses needing help. The dedication of this rescue organization is amazing!!!

I can say Howey Horse Haven has the most heart filled people behind it that you could have ever imagined. The warmth you feel when you walk through the gates are unreal! The horses have found a place that they can be them selves, and you can feel it when you are around them... All the horses that have come and go through this rescue have had amazing turn arounds and were completely different horses from when they came in and left! One of the most loving and heart filled place. We can't save all of the horses, but we can sure try to save what we can!

There's never a quiet day at Howey Horse Haven, but that's a testament to how much care and dedication that the owners and volunteers put into this rescue. There's always something to get done and through hard work and time it always does get finished, and that is a wonderful and rare thing. From horse experienced individuals to people with no experience, like me, this rescue is welcoming to all and their gratitude isn't subtle, HHHR is full of love that will guarantee lot's of smiles and fond memories.
I'm so glad that I discovered HHHR and can be apart of this great place, get the word out because the bottom line is that Howey Horse is 110% dedicated to the animals and any extra help goes a long way!

Howey Horse Haven is a great non-profit organization! When I first came to Howey Horse Haven back in 2013 I had a life changing experience... I was struggling with social anxiety and my bulling experiences where so severe that I nearly gave up on myself. When I was so deeply fallen into this hole I had created by myself, I needed to find a way out! I started researching therapeutic centers to help me with my issues. I heard about Howey Horse Haven through my therapist I was currently seeing. My mother and I decide to go and try out a day on HHHR's volunteer Saturday. After my day at Howey Horse Haven, I couldn't wait to go home and tell my family ALL about it! The horses made me feel this huge relief and escape feeling that I couldn't find with any kind of therapist. Fast forward a few years, and my problems have vanquished! The people at Howey Horse Haven Rescue make you feel like family and they make you feel very secure and they create this "judge free" environment. I would definitely say that everyone and everything at Howey Horse Haven Rescue, saved my life and I owe them the biggest thank you!

Within the past year, financial difficulties resulted in my family having to sell our horses before we could no longer afford them. After falling on even harder financial times, I knew I needed an outlet, a place to be around horses once more. After searching for nearby horse rescues, I found Howey Horse Haven Rescue, called Teresa, and went out to volunteer the first Saturday I could.
While I knew I would fall in love with the horses and I knew that it was a horse haven, what I didn't expect was to find my second family, and my own haven. By my second time out there, I already felt like family and, whenever I drive out,every foot I get closer during my 20 minute commute, takes away my stress until I am drained of my issues and completely happy and ready to help. Because I grew up around horses, culminating in about 13 years of being around them, I knew they would relieve my stress, but I didn't know that the people would do that as well.
Not only can I not thank Teresa, Allan, Larry, all the volunteers, and the horses out there enough for helping me (whether they realize it or not), but to try to explain how much everyone out there truly loves and adores and cares for all the animals would take up more than just the space of a review.
Teresa gives the rescue and the horses her all. Because I volunteer at the rescue, I can attest to the amount of work, dedication, and, most of all, LOVE that she, and everyone out there, pours into the horses and into assuring that they and the property are maintained well and are healthy. ALL of the proceeds go the horses, which in this day and age is not as common as it should be. It's truly amazing and inspiring how Howey Horse Haven Rescue is able to turn starved creatures into majestic, kind, and loving horses and companions. The horses that come in, find more than a home, they find their haven, their tales are those of the phoenix, being reborn again. And if that sound too poetic to be true, it's because you haven't felt their magic yet!
I love Howey Horse Haven Rescue, all the people, all the horses, and all the animals. They are truly wonderful and I really do feel that I am changing the world by being out there, the rescue is certainly changing MY world.
I can't recommend them enough!
If you can donate, volunteer, sponsor, adopt, or share their message, DO IT! They're awesome!

I cant say enough about Howey horse haven rescue they have met and exceeded all my expectations. I didn't even know how severe this situation was until I found myself needing help for an abandoned horse my wife discovered a while back. They were more then willing to help this dying horse in need and treated the horse as if were their very own. My only wish is that more people would open their eyes and realize that these poor animals didn't ask to be owned or neglected and that they deserve a fighting chance and thank God for the howey horse haven that makes it possible for these animals to get a second chance at life!

I am so glad that i decided to try something new that saturday in april 2014. I feel as though there is a family at the rescue, a family open to anyone wanting to join. Everyone helps and protects each other. The horses and ponys at the rescue are the sweetest animals i have ever met. Then to hear their stories it breaks your heart to realise acctual people did such a thing to such beautiful creatures. Some have even come in not knowing what food is! These animals are blessed to have ended up at HHHR because i have never been to another rescue as caring and Safe.

And they are the sweetest people I have EVER met and I couldn't imagine the world without them.... I consider the family with their overwhelming welcome! While some people at their organization just say "here's the horse enjoy!" When they actually goes in there with you, and tells you their stories!! And the results are astonishing and you'd never see the old horse! Where they come sad and neglected where they now run free in the pasture and have an outstanding personality thanks to Larry, Teresa, and Alan they let these animals gain trust back!!

Every volunteer and horse at Howey horse haven each have a different story. The owner Teresa Meixner(aka TT) has been an incredible inspiration for me. She treats the horses and volunteers like they are her family. I consider her family, like she considers me family. We would love to have new volunteers to come out and help.

The Meixner family and the volunteers of HHH put their hearts, souls and money into making sure the horses get the very best care available. Great job guys!

I live close to Howey Horse Haven and drive by daily. I've seen the new horses come in extremely emaciated and sickly looking. Some I didn't think would make it. To see these same horses running across the pasture within a weeks is remarkable! Great job HHH!!

I really respect Howey Horse Haven's idea of rescuing horses that are mistreated or left abandoned. It takes dedicated and loving people to run and maintain a farm like this. My daughter loves going to volunteer and pet the mini ponys.

I visited HHHR one Saturday with my mother. I was impressed by the members of this organization; they really make you feel like part of the family. The beautiful horses roaming the grasses are an example of the love and care the members give to them. This organization really excel in providing a heaven for the horses under their care.

Howey Horse Haven Rescue .org is an extraordinary not for profit fill with caring members! As I heard a member of this organization talk about what she does to help the organization care for the horses under their care I started to feel the devotion and the love the members of this organization have for horses in Central Florida. As I hear the stories of the horses they have rescued I felt the compassion for those horses that are in need of love and attention. KEEP THE GOOD WORK!

I visited Howey Horse Haven Rescue one Saturday after visiting the local Animal Shelter. I immediately fell in love with the commitment of every volunteer at this organization. I immediately sensed that the love and care the members of Howey Horse Haven give to the horses in their facility really give a second chance in live to every single horse in their care. I love horses of every size and of every lineage and nothing make me feel more at peace than to spend my free time sharing in the devotion with the members of Howey Horse Haven. All members really make you feel that the time you give to the rescues do not go unnoticed. An exceptional group of people that really care for the well being of those horses in need of love and attention!

I have been visiting Howey Horse Haven for a little over a year now and one visit in you feel like FAMILY!
They do great things for the horses no matter the size or needs. They make sure each and every horse gets their needs filled and LOTS of love and attention. I have watched ponies arrive scared and skinny and now they are a happy weight and run to the fence for more attention. I have seen the owner stay up day and night with Dolly when she was going into labor even sleeping in the barn with her for comfort until she had her baby. When I first started coming out they did not have a trailer and volunteers walked a group ponies down a side road while another drove in front of them with water.
This group is fully dedicated to the rehab and happiness of each and every horse that comes their way!
Everyone there makes you feel sooo welcome!

What a wonderful rescue, new beginning for horses of all sizes. It is amazing what lots of love, care and patience can do for a horses personality. These folks care about what they do and it shows. Proud to say also, that I/we (husband) also are volunteers/sponsorers for HHHR and happy to help in any way that We can. One big happy family there, everyone makes you feel welcome and right at home and the love. The care that goes into prepping these loveable creatures God has given us to get them ready for adoption to loveable, forever (we hope), homes is amazing here. Truely God has blessed them and continues to do so with help and support of good citizens that can make a difference for these guys, big or small, horses all have big hearts. Would highly recommend for any community service, charitable donations or volunteer opportunities.
