Review for Helping Hearts Equine Rescue, Perrineville, NJ, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Been following HHER for many years. I believe in the work Lisa does and knows she puts her heart and soul into those horses. Well, all the animals! I try to honor the memory of Bentley and donate what I can. HHER, Lisa, Chris and the crew are top notch. God bless them for their hard work!

Review for Helping Hearts Equine Rescue, Perrineville, NJ, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

For the love of a horse. Not just any horse. But a big, beautiful horse. One that I knew I could never own, but I loved with all my heart. When HHER had rescued him from auction, he needed a few hundred pounds before he would look like the magestic Clydesdale he once was. But a malnourished horse can develop autoimmune issues and it took time. HHER was there for him, like so many other equines over the years. Many loving homes have welcomed lucky equines, but Lisa continues to keep watch. Some horses make their way back to HHER if their family’s circumstances change. Some become permanent residents. Such was the case with that big hunk of Clyde, Bentley. The big guy had been thru some tough times and his body showed. He had issues keeping on weigh, his feet abcessed, but his spirit kept Lisa and HHER fighting for him. I remember the day Lisa allowed me to come down and meet Bentley and the rest of the gang. Here I was this fat, frumpy special ed teacher drooling over this huge horse! I commend Lisa and Chris, and all the others who make HHER the incredible rescue it is today. There are animal lovers and then there are those who seem to exist for the animals. Her interest and knowledge of all living things just exemplifies what an extraordinary person she is. And she has gathered a great team for the rescue. She fights for the animals but is humane when it comes to making THAT decision. She made sure that the group of us who loved the big guy all knew that as long as he showed he was willing to fight, she would fight for Bentley. Her and her team of equine specialists. A message I interpreted as “I don’t care how much anyone cries, when it’s Bentley’s time, I will do what is best for him. Based on what the vet and farrier feel as well.” I am grateful for HHER for all that they do. I am thankful and grateful for Lisa Post because she took the time to educate me, teach me about what her rescue does and share her love and passion for equines with me so that this fat, frumpy special ed teacher could share that message with everyone who would listen. There are a whole lot of rescues out there....not all are good, not all are reputable. But I stand behind this one. There aren’t enough ways to express that. Except one....go ask the horses!
