RFS crews from Anna Bay, and Fire and Rescue NSW crews from Lambton and Salamander Bay, were called to Bobs Farm around 10.30am, where they used specialty slings to free the horse from the boggy mire where it had become submerged to the withers.
It took firefighters more than two hours to free the animal, before a vet on the scene was able to assess that it was uninjured.
