WELCOMEHunter Animal Rescue is a not-for-profit organisation run by volunteers who dedicate their time to finding new homes for abandoned pets facing euthanasia. All animals are kept in foster carer homes, where they experience a good quality of life, and the carers get a good idea of a dog or cat's personality and suitability for different homes. Please understand that everyone involved in this organisation is a volunteer. We all have jobs, families and usually a home/yard full of animals that need our attention too. It may take a little time to return your call or update the website but we really do the best we can. Hunter Animal Rescue supports responsible pet ownership. We encourage all members of the public to have their dogs and cats desexed before their first season. We look foward to the end of overbreeding of companion animals and a time when there is no longer a need for us to resuce animals from the pound. We are looking for the cutest, smoochiest, most adorable, photogenic pets in the Hunter to feature in our

On Sunday six lovely, seemingly healthy, 10 week old pups were rescued from the pound. By Sunday evening one of the pups was unwell, in just hours she was very sick indeed and a trip to the emergency vet revealed the worst. This little girl had parvo! Willow was already so sick that attempting treatment was simply prolonging her pain. Willow made her trip to Rainbow Bridge. By Monday morning 4 of the five remaining pups were symptomatic and declining rapidly, including Bailey, pictured here. By Monday afternoon only one pup had survived, 5 of 6 puppies were in care for less then 24 hrs.
Those 24 hrs though were full of cuddles and loving attention and testament to the qualities of their foster carers. The little paw prints they left on your hearts may bring tears to your eyes but they will remember the kindness and love and will be waiting for you at the Rainbow Bridge. The surviving pup, little Xander is currently being treated and so far is not getting worse at the rate his siblings did. Xander is undergoing treatment, multiple medications, hydration and monitoring. Last update he was stable, but is still a very sick little pup. We are hopeful this little boy may make it through. Treatment for Parvo is very expensive and not always successful. Once again HAR urges ALL dog owners to ensure their pets are up to date with vaccinations.
To donate towards Xander's medical expenses please use paypal link to left and email to let us know the donation was for Xander or you can deposit/transfer to Account Name-Hunter Animal Rescue Donations BSB-650 300, Account Number-972115902

A NOTE ON PRIVATE SURRENDERSThe priority for HAR is rescue animals facing euthanasia at local pounds. Acceptance of surrender animals is dependent on a number of factors, most importantly the availability of an appropriate foster carer. This is the time of year when all pounds have an influx of animals. The pounds we work with are constantly full to capacity, as are our dedicated foster carers, so we are currently rarely able to accept private surrenders.
Dog Surrender If you need assistance with a dog please call 0401282301. Please give as much detail as you can, including reason for surrender and also the area the animal is located. You can also email details of the animal in need to be included on our "Dogs by Donation pagr. There is no gaurantee we will be able to accept the animal. We suggest in addition to contacting us you also try some of the advice given in the links below. A $40 surrender fee applies. Cat Surrender If you need assistance with a cat please call 0434258260 or email catcarers@hotmail.com There is no gaurantee we will be able to accept the animal. A $40 surrender fee applies. We also offer a Cat By Private Surrender page where the cat or kitten may be listed to be directly rehomed from your home- for conditions and to submit please click here.
