Katie Maroux loves donkeys and decided to adopt Brad Pitt, one of our long time residents at the 10 acre big sanctuary. He is friends with all donkeys not one in particular which is often the case.
Kalliope Blum adopted Esmeralda, her 4 year old daughter begs to go to the donkey sanctuary every day. We are open every day 9-4 and you are always welcome!
Margaret Burke adopted Gypsy, she says: "Thanks for caring for the donkeys". It is our pleasure, we love these animals. They are loyal, sweet, docile, curious, thoughtful, playful and do not underestimate how smart they are!
Bart Koedijk and his friends love the donkeys very much. They wanted to adopt the sad looking donkey at the entrance. Of course this donkey didn't want to be in the picture with them, so we have 2 pictures, one of Mocca's face and one of the friends. Maybe next time?
Diana Foflygen came with her daughter Angela Reyes to the sanctuary and like her daughter she adopted a donkey. The choice was easily made: Thistle a very friendly donkey who sucks his tongue after eating some pellets or carrots.
Of course when it was time to make a picture, Thistle was no where to be found....
