Karen & John Halverson visited the Sanctuary last March and fell in love with our donkeys. Isn't it nice that they send us an email willing to adopt Kodak. Kodak's story was appealing to them. He came in, many years ago, with srew worm. This worm eats the flesh, so half of his hind leg was gone and infected with thousands of little worms. Long story short: he was on 3 legs (like a tripod) for a month and totally recovered. Only one little spot on his leg reminds us of his injury.
Joe and Pam Ziskend really appreciate what we are doing here at the Donkey Sanctuary and they want to help us with that. They not only adopted Thunder but also bought a Delft Blue tile to help us finish the vistors center.
Christy, Scott, Lily, Lauren & Jack Forester adopted Sweetie because he followed Jack the minute they came into the Sanctuary. Sweetie is with us for many years now. He really wanted to live with us. He was standing in front of the entrance: Please let me in?
The Dirkse Family from the Netherlands see no other way than to adopt Brad Pitt so that they can be in the picture with him. They volunteer at home as well.
Kim and Hannah Harper wanted to adopt a not so popular donkey. The problem with that is that the non popular donkeys are often very shy. Not Tootsie, we do not know why she is never picked. She is so friendly and big friends with Cloudy and Rambo. They are always with the three of them....
Take Route 4a from the hotels and follow this road for 14 km, pass all the circles/roundabouts until you see a sign for the French Men’s Pass. Make a left turn onto the French Men’s Pass, then 1st left, 2nd right. On that dirt road you will find the Donkey Sanctuary after about 200 meters.
If you have a GPS device, navigate to these coordinates: N 12°48.974’ W 069°96.642’ This will bring you to the entrance of the Donkey Sanctuary.
