Meet The Girls

My daughter and son-in-law have recently bought a place in the country.
It came complete with four miniature donkeys, who are the sweetest and most curious little jennies.
They are called companion animals, and it is obvious why, since they are the most social of creatures.
Meet the latest family members......Rose, Daisy, Lily, and Buttercup, two precious mothers and their adored daughters.

Jo, that is so exciting. I want a jennie so bad. I do hope they are close by.

Your daughter and son-in-law are very lucky to have found such a beautiful green place to live. And as an extra 4 donkeys, they look so adorable.

Jo, Our neighbor used to get sheep through the summer to eat the grass in his wooded lot. Some times a donkey came with them. We were told it was to keep the coyotes away. But once in a while that donkey would run after the sheep. Hope you enjoy yours. xoxo,Susie

When I die, I bequeath my donkeys to this farm where I insist they live out their long lives. I am glad your daughter acquired the little donks with the land, perfect.

Oh to have all that space! How wonderful and the donkeys are gorgeous. Lucky you, you get to visit them too.
