Matching recovered horses with safe, lifelong homes to ensure ongoing welfare.
Reaching more horses in need with Community.
Our mission is to make the greatest impact to horses in need. We are achieving this by building a community of like-minded foster carers who share our passion. By working together, we can extend our reach and offer sanctuary to more horses in need while they are rehabilitated and found suitable caring forever homes.

A little bit about
The Happy Horse Foundation
We are a sanctuary for horses in distress, offering a haven for those navigating uncertain paths. Our community provides a safe harbour where they receive shelter, nourishment, and healing from pain and fear. Each horse is nurtured and transformed into the vibrant, happy animal they are meant to be. From this place of renewal, we work to find them compassionate new homes where they can continue to thrive and experience the peace they truly deserve.
At The Happy Horse Foundation, we believe in the transformative power of compassion. Everyday, we witness the remarkable resilience of horses, majestic creatures whose spirits shine even in the face of adversity. Our mission is to be their steadfast advocates, offering a sanctuary of hope and healing for those who have endured unfairness or who are on an uncertain path. From the moment a horse is rescued, they enter a world where their well-being is top priority. We provide not just shelter and medical care, but also the love and respect every horse deserves. Our dedicated team of professionals and horse lovers are ready to get to work to rehabilitate and re-home these magnificent animals, ensuring they find the second chance they so richly deserve.
Join us in our mission to make a difference, one hoofbeat at a time.

A little bit about THHF founder,
Brittany
Hello, my name is Brittany, and I’m the proud founder of The Happy Horse Foundation. I’m so glad you’re here.
Whether you’ve found us out of curiosity, a passion for horses, our cash prize draws, or a need to verify our legitimacy (I completely understand – and I can promise you, we’re a new, small, but dedicated team with an honest mission to make a real difference for horses), welcome.
My deepest passions of animal welfare, behaviour, psychology, neuroscience, nature, and, of course, horses, have all come together to shape this organisation and its purpose.
Through innovative education, ethical welfare practices, and sheer determination, I strive to create meaningful change in the lives of horses and the humans who care about them.
Horses have been part of my journey from the very beginning. Along the way, I’ve faced heartache, celebrated incredible joys, and embraced a lifelong curiosity that drives me to keep learning, both practically and theoretically.
If you feel even the smallest connection to our cause, or if you’re excited about our cash prize draws (which we’ve worked hard to make as exciting as possible), I’d love for you to join us. Whether it’s through sharing our mission to boost our reach, becoming a foster carer, or entering our cash prize draws, your support helps us expand our impact in ways that truly matter.
Thank you for taking the time to visit and learn about us.
Wishing you all the best,
Brittany
