Week #16 of Meet the Donkeys: Oakie

Oakie is a 5 year old gelding that came up on a transport in January 2022 from a kill pen in Bastrop, LA. He was in rough shape. Underweight and with hooves in terrible neglect. But once again, after medical care by our vet staff, extensive farrier work and a safe haven to finally live in, he became part of the family. Oakie is on the shy side, but has recently come a long way in seeking out human contact. He tends to hang out with Kevin and Exodus. He is available for adoption to the right home that can offer a kind patient hand in working one on one with him.

Oakie’s Donkey Fun Fact: Donkeys are dichromatic, meaning they have two-color vision and can likely see blue and green but not red.

Week #15 of Meet the Donkeys: Muddles and Whisper!

Muddles, a 6 year old gelding and Whisper, a 5 year old gelding are a bonded pair at WRR and the smallest of our standards. These two little guys hitched a ride to join our crew while on a rescue mission to pick up 2 unhandleable jacks (Mayhem and Chaos/Cosmo) and a jenny named Gypsy from a Central NY dealer lot in July 2023, as we absolutely could not leave them behind. Generous supporters donated for their bail and they were brought home. We originally thought they were just babies due to their size but after a vet check, they were determined to already be 3-4 years old! They were both weak and underweight and had to undergo several months of vet care, diagnostic testing, medications and extensive extra TLC from the volunteers. Eventually these two bestie friends, who are practically joined at the hip, began to thrive and joined the main herd. They are sweet and friendly. They are pending adoption to a large beautiful horse farm in Central NY and will be housed with a pony that is in need of friends.

Muddles and Whispers's Fun Donkey Fact: The diet requirements for donkeys are different for that of horses. The wild burro/donkey grazes on low nutritional forage 14-18 hrs a day. Donkeys have incredibly efficient digestive systems, utilizing 95% of what they eat. Therefore it is very important not to overfeed a donkey with a daily diet of grains and too many sweet treats or to allow unrestricted lush sweet grass grazing as it could cause extensive health issues due to their metabolism. For a healthy donkey, the best diet is of a lesser quality meadow hay that is lower in starch and sugar (1st cut hay) and/or forage feeding or limiting their pasture time when sweet/lush grass is abundant. However supplements, grains and quality hay are sometimes necessary when warranted in special cases such as pregnant or nursing jennies, or for older, underweight or working donkeys.

What we worked so hard for over the course of 3 years....

We can't thank those who supported us enough. Nor could we ever properly thank our committed volunteers who put countless hours into volunteering at events, keybank, or Darien lake raising the funds for our barn....

We're still getting everything situated - but the most important thing is finally done. And that's a barn for our kids.

Who is that hiding behind Jasper?! And who is that standing there with Cosmo?!

Why, that's the lovely Dr. Best!!!

She braved not only the cold today but our obnoxious and childish antics at the barn to get all our long eared kids squared away! It was a few hours more than anybody wants out in this cold weather today!

23 donkeys were handled today. 7 received just vaccines and 26 received vaccines and had blood drawn for their coggins.

We are required by the Department of Ag to keep current coggins on all of our equine and we are inspected yearly to ensure we are doing just that.

We are so incredibly grateful to Dr. Best (and Dr. Bentley and Haley our favorite tech!) for being our vets and that they are brave enough to come back to our barn time after time to make sure we get it done!

Week #14 of Meet the Donkeys : Milton!

Milton is an 8 yr old gelding with a beautiful red rusty colored coat. He came to us in January 2023 with other jacks that were hours away from being loaded onto the truck heading to Mexico for slaughter. Milton came in as quite a quick-to-kick little bu**er. He needed quiet time with the volunteers to just hang out with and eventually allowed neck and head pets. He is still on the cautious side and likes to just watch the humans go about their chores. Milton will walk on lead when needed to. He seems to hang out with the entire herd, rather than having just a favorite friend and he is about midway in the hierarchy. He also responds well to easy slow-motion touch and can be brushed and petted after you earn his trust. He is available for adoption to the right person that can provide consistent, gentle and patient handling.

Milton’s Donkey Fun Fact: Donkeys are different to horses in their physiology, communication, thinking and behaviour - they do their best with other donkeys as companions and therefore all donkeys that are adopted from our rescue must be adopted in pairs or more or have a donkey(s) on the adopter's premises already.
