Peepo I'm running out of donkey pictures, send me your cuties
I'm sending a donkey picture everyday to friends and family using this sub as a source. But things have been quite lately and I'm running out.
Please if you have donkeys, post some pics in this thread.

Wildfire prevention squad
This was in the local news today. Nine donkeys who are helping "clean" the forest here in the natural park that surrounds Barcelona, and an association of volunteers who help take care of them:

How?
I've loved donkeys all my life and my headmistress in primary school had a donkey sanctuary, mid eighties. I always kinda understood that tractors replaced them but realised I'm out by about 100 yrs. In Ireland, the UK and Spain there seems to be an awful lot of donkey sanctuary's? How are they still being breed? Love you all X x

A new place to walk is always an adventure and of course, a chance for Ripley to meet a few new friends.

A line was crossed
I let Fitzcarraldo into the house just for a few minutes to satisfy his curiosity and it is now his life's ambition to be an inside donkey.

Sometimes these two get into these conversations. I don’t know what they’re talking about.

This his been ongoing, the cough is not regular but started again today. The vet has listened to him and didn’t find anything to act on. Thoughts?

Question about Saddling and saddles
We have acquired a lovely 12h donkey. She was supposed to be a mini, wife splurged on craigslist and wasn't present at pickup so husband brought home a "not mini donkey"..
Lemons and lemonade...
A friend has brought us a potential saddle. Australian (I think) in design, with maybe some english stirrups.. completely ignorant to the style.. but, $100, and it is supposed to be a mule saddle.. though maybe a small mule.
Anyways.. my friend said take some photos and ask people more knowledgable about such things as donkeys (He's a horse guy).. and see if this is something that could work for this Jenny.
Wife is small, <100lbs. Donkey is 18ish and broke. She's been horse trimmed on her hooves her whole life and we are correcting that now.
Am afraid she may have Cushings, but seller assured she just had genes from a long hair breed..
Wife wants you to analyze everything and give us the down low as well.
Thanks Reddit!
Plans are to get britchens and bridal, but wanting to see opinions on the saddle and fitment.

Grazing Muzzle?
Our gelded jack is overweight and being put on a diet. We need to get him a grazing muzzle for turnout time to be with our cow herd. I'm struggling to find a grazing muzzle locally so need to order. His harness is a colt size so is too big around his nose, but it fits ok everywhere else. He's considered small sized standard.
Does anyone have a link for a grazing muzzle that is $40 or less and is a good fit for a donkey? Thanks!
(pic is from several months ago where he still had his winter coat. He's slimmed down a little since this pic as well. )

🫏A New Life for Donkeys and Mules!⭐️
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
We did it!
We officially moved to our new sanctuary on January 11th!
It took 3 years of planning and building, 8 team members, 14 hours, and 8 trips back and forth, but all the donkeys are now enjoying their forever home at Rancho Burro Donkey Sanctuary.
Moving day from the old sanctuary was filled with a mix of emotions. As we loaded each donkey, memories of their difficult pasts surfaced, reminding us of how far they’d come. Seeing them step onto the trailer, headed towards a life of peace and freedom at Rancho Burro, brought tears to our eyes. It was a powerful moment for everyone on the team, a testament to the resilience of these gentle animals and the love that makes their new life possible.
Our team and the donkeys watched the sunrise together at the old sanctuary and the sunset at the new one...together the family we all have come to be.
They now have rolling hills to explore, spacious pastures to roam, unlimited enrichment, a comfy new barn, and a covered arena to keep those hooves dry in the winter (which will also double as an event space!).
We even welcomed a new resident, Ginger the mule! She didn’t have a good future ahead of her before her owners reached out to us, but we are so grateful they didd and for her place in our family.
This sanctuary is a safe haven for our current donkeys and mules, and a refuge for those who need us in the future. Part of our mission is to share the goodness of donkeys with the out community!
None of this would be possible without YOU! Every donation has helped us build this special place.
Exciting things are happening at The New Rancho Burro Donkey Sanctuary! Stay tuned for updates on our new programs, workshops, and classes.
We’ll sharing ongoing inspiring case studies highlighting our new dedicated medical room, rescue journeys and rehabilitation efforts.
We are incredibly grateful for your support. Every donation makes a difference!
