Happy Belated birthday to Annie! And what a perfect way to celebrate. As a birthday gift, her friend Mary adopted Sir Wildwood, aka Woody, for her and she couldn't be happier!
Aris Panas had a donkey when he was a kid and that's why he had to come visit the donkey sanctuary. While here he and his wife decided to adopt Kroket, because they are also God's creatures.
Shawna Russo Baffone adopted Kamino before. Since he passed away last summer she choose Gypsy. She took her time to carefully select another donkey. Big shoes to fill after Kamino. Gypsy is with us for many years, she is best friends with Diva and Lady Taco.


Shawna Russo Baffone met Kamino for the first time right after his surgery back in 2019. She visited him every year and this year she decided to adopt him. Despite all the hardship he went through he is a very gentle and sweet donkey who can find his way in between his 121 friends.

Esther adopted Thistle, the friendly donkey sticking out his tongue.

Sandy Rowley and Susan Geiger adopted Cumin, who will have his first birthday on the 17th. He is still our baby!
