Barbara Trent says we are doing a wonderful job with the donkeys. Happy to see them safe. Keep up the good work. We LOVE what we are doing, so no problem there.
Gretchen Behimer visited us last month and fell for Kamino, our 3-legged donkey. He steals a lot of hearts. She sent us an email that she wanted to adopt this donkey who touched her. We always hope a picture was taken with the donkey and the new adoption parent. The T-shirt we can send by Post.
Sandy Poehnelt adopted Lady Taco because, and we quote: "she let me brush her". Lady Taco is a very friendly little donkey that is with us since september 2021. She is best friends with Diva and Gypsy and above all Sgt Pepper. They play a lot together. Preferably with an old bucket.
Every January Anne Ummels decides who to support the coming year financially. After volunteering with us last Summer she decided to adopt Orchid, one of our very sweet and shy donkeys that prefers to stay in the back ground. She lives with her best buddy Ninja in the DONKIA, the area on the left side of the parking lot which houses only 10 donkeys who need more time to eat.
Joseph and Karla Moriarty adopted Santa, the donkey that broke his leg many years ago. They read the story about him on our website and decided to help us out. The visit to the sanctuary was the high light of their trip! That is always nice to hear.
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.
