If anyone is looking for a jenny we have a nice selection right now. Usually as you may know we only have jacks for sale, but recently the tables have turned and we only have jennies. They vary in ages starting at 5 months old and up from there. They are all registered but affordable. Some are bred and some are not old enough. We also have 2 small standards one is black and white and a great herd protector. All are sweet donkeys of course and if you would like to come out and see them just give me a call 336-345-5330 or email me at thedonkeydepot@yahoo.com or thedonkeydepot@gmail.com the pictures are of Beauty and Sassyfrass, 2 of our babies and they are very sweet girls.

Happy Turkey Day!!!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone. My favorite holiday of the year where we can all just get together and EAT!!! We don't have to worry about getting gifts and all the hoopla just get together and be friends and family. So I will start the baking tomorrow for Thanksgiving at my house with my entire family on Thursday night. So I also have to start cleaning!!! UGH! But the family is also cooking so I don't have to do it all myself. And then after starts the shopping, we will be doing the Black Friday thing, it's kinda scary fighting for toys but we do it, hubby and me every year. And then we have to get back because the farrier is coming out to finish trimming the donkeys. We spilt them into 2 groups and are going to have them on 2 schedules, that's about the only way I can afford to get them all done!! But it is worth it to know they all have great pedicures for the upcoming cold weather. All the animals are in the barn right now, it's too cold for me to be out so I don't like to leave them out in it, bless their hearts they can't figure out how to go in the new run in shed, they just stand on one side of it to knock the wind off. So I know they are cold, especially when we open the barn door and they all run in like please, can I have a stall for the night.

Happy Turkey Day Thanksgiving Day, we have an entire barn full to be thankful for. And of course the family too!!!

Rainbow Bridge

Thanks ladies for keeping up with me, even if it is just 2 of you!!! Haha. It has been a tough month or so, we are looking for it to start looking up now. I know in doing these rescues we would run into this eventually, but I still thought we could save them all! It is discouraging but I'm not backing down now! I think for now I am going to concentrate on the foals on the way and if anyone knocks on my barn door, of course I won't turn them away. I still haven't added the Rainbow Bridge page to my site, I have been putting it off, but I'm going to cowgirl up and put it out there for these guys because they all deserve it. And cross my fingers that I won't have to update it anytime soon. It is hard to go to the barn now, it's different. I make hubby go first so I don't have to find one....but I'm getting better at it. Never knew I could love these little guys so much, but it does break my heart to not be able to help them. Thanks for your thoughts.

The Donkey Depot Blog is now open

I am trying to find better, more efficient ways to communicate with donkey lovers. When I stumbled on this Blog Spot I thought it just might be the perfect way to get started. So we will see how it goes and I hope everyone participates if you are interested. We usually have lots of questions, some I can't even answer or haven't dealt with the certain situation yet so this way maybe others can answer and we can all learn something. So come on let's BLOG!!!
