First, though, this is our granddaughter Emily with her friends - her introduction to donkeys. Isn't she adorable? |
Donkeys make great, lovable pets, and they're easy keepers! They are extremely intelligent animals and are easily trained to pack, drive, or ride. They willingly attempt to do anything you ask them to. They may be a bit cautious about anything new, hence their undeserved reputation for stubbornness. But this is really just another sign of their intelligence. Donkeys love human contact and have gentle, sweet dispositions. They quickly become attached to their owners, and will greet you loudly with their wonderful hee-haw bray when they have missed you, or if they just want some attention. Donkeys also form strong bonds with other animals and for this reason are being used for predator control to protect newborn animals, and as companions for other equines. They have a well-developed sense of humor and love to play - if they don't have "toys", they will make their own out of anything they can find ... buckets, tubs, branches, etc. Most people who acquire a donkey find that they are so endearing and entertaining that they are absolutely hooked on these gentle, long-eared friends. They quickly learn that one donkey is simply not enough! |
