🫏 *Rescue Update: Welcome Our 3 New Donkeys!*🫏
Exciting news! We've just welcomed three adorable donkeys from an Indiana auction. Meet our new friends (names may be changed in the near future):
1. **Miles** - A charming 3-year-old mini jack, who has a friendly demeanor and playful spirit. Soon, he'll be seeing the vet to get gelded and receive a general health check. He needs to loose a few pounds and we will be working on that slowly.
2. **Honey and Ollie** - A sweet mother-son duo who spent too much time on rich pasture. Charm, the mom, is very sweet but certainly overweight and in need of farrier care. Lucky, at just 7-8 months old, is quite thin and missing his mane hair. Both had several ticks and matts removed.
🔨 Today's visit from our farrier was a success, especially for Lucky and Charm, providing the much-needed hoof care. We are thankful to have a skilled farrier who is willing to come out unscheduled on a Sunday to provide the care these 3 needed.
🚑 All three donkeys are currently in a 30-day quarantine period to ensure they are healthy before they join the rest of the donkey crew.
🌾 We will be working with the vets to tailor a diet plan for Charm to help her lose weight safely, and another to help Lucky gain weight and thrive.
📸 Scroll through to see the heart-touching photos from the auction and the transformation post-farrier's care.
As always, we are incredibly grateful for your support, which enables us to save lives and nurture these beautiful creatures back to health. Stay tuned for more updates, and thank you for being a part of their journey to a happier life!
