OUR FUR ANGELS BEING HELPED

A record of each animal is kept so it’s progress can be monitored by Barn Yard Stables.
Janine is well known in her area, and often horse riders come from afar to bring their horses, donkeys and dogs to be seen by her.
Often they are so ill or injured that they are brought it shopping trolleys or wheel barrows.

A TYPICAL DAY AT BARN YARD STABLES

"Each one of us can make a difference. Together we make CHANGE."
- Barbara Mikulski

  • Barn Yard Stables in the morning

     

    As the Sun Rises

    People travel from afar to come to Barn Yard Stables to have their horses, donkeys and dogs treated for illness and injuries. Sometimes the animals are too weak to walk and are transported via shopping trolleys or wheel barrows.

  • Treating Injuries at the yard

     

    Mid Morning Happnings

    The Barn Yard Team assess and treat as many animals as they are able to, and in minor cases provide what is needed. Sometimes the assistance of the SPCA is called in; alternatively a vet is called out.

  • Helping animals at the centre

     

    Mid Afternoon Happenings

    The Team checks and confiscates any dangerous / harmful tack and where possible it is replaced with donated tack. During this time they also educate the riders about proper horse care and humane treatment, making sure that the horses will be better looked after in the future.

  • medication needed to help the animals

     

    As the Sun Sets

    As the Centre closes the work is not yet done. The team organize all the available donated tack and medication for the next day. All of the animals treated for the day are documented and kept on file.
