Posting a photo of our inherited donkey, Madelaine.
In my wildest dreams, I never imagined owning a donkey, The Black Stallion? Flame the Island Stallion? Misty of Chicoteaque? Snowbound? Sure! Madelaine..not so much.![Rolling on the floor laughing :rofl: š¤£](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f923.png)
She is about 36ā tall at the withers and is now about 19 years old, having been with us about 7 years now. Iāve Googled donkeys, looked for articles, and asked questions of our vet and farrier. Iāve learned a bit but have no idea how to really work with a donkey, other than to give them time to absorb info and to keep things short.
Maddie is lovable and gentle. She hates winter, loves the sun, likes to be brushed, and doesnāt eat any sort of treat known to man, but does enjoy her hay time.
