Where Second Chances Find Their Stride.
A place of care, recovery, and second chances
Hawkez Haven is a small, hands-on horse rescue and rehabilitation space built on calm handling, practical decision-making, and lived experience.
This is not a volume-based operation. Each horse is known, observed, and worked with as an individual. Care is shaped by what the horse shows us — not by pressure, trends, or outside expectations.
What We Do
Rehabilitation
Rehabilitation is paced, thoughtful, and horse-led. This may include veterinary treatment, hoof care, nutrition support, groundwork, or time — sometimes the most important ingredient.
Rehoming
Rehoming is done carefully and without pressure. Horses are matched to homes that suit their needs, experience level, and long-term wellbeing. Not every horse is rushed to rehome — some simply need consistency and safety first.
Rescue & Intake
We step in when horses need immediate support, stability, or a safe place to land. Each intake is assessed individually so care decisions are based on the horse in front of us — not a one-size-fits-all approach
Hawkez Haven exists to provide time, consistency, and responsibility for horses who need it.
Hawkez Haven is a New Zealand–based horse rescue and rehabilitation sanctuary, providing second chances to neglected, misunderstood, and at-risk horses through patient, individualised care.
