Paul and Annie are animal lovers and thought (we totally agree) the adoption of Esmeralda is a great Mothers Day gift for Valerie Luevano. Esmeralda is our oldest donkey at the moment, she is about 35 years old. Retired and living with Blanca, George and Sgt Pepper in the corral and stables. They are very happy in there. Get their special soaked feed and a lot of attention. What else do you want? Being pampered when you are getting old. I sign up for that!
Chris, Emily and Ben Mitchel visited the donkeys and their little son Ben was so fond of Cowboy that they decided to adopt him.
Because all animals deserve a fair chance in life says Carolina zuniga and Francisco Maldonado. They adopted Kroket and came back the next day to spoil all donkeys with carrots and apples. Lots of them...
Lisa Worsley loves animals. She is a vet tech and she wants to give Governess and her friends the opportunity to get the best of life. The adoption runs for a year....
Rudy and Mary Conrad have enjoyed visiting the sanctuary and the work done here. Always a great experience. They adopted 7UP in the picture being hugged by Rudy!
