Grandma Madeleine volunteered at the Donkey Sanctuary while Grandpa Rop was working at the University. Both of them enjoyed working with the donkeys and wanted to adopt a donkey for their grand daughter Lisa van der Vaart! Isn't that a very nice gift to give?

Marty Lukens grandma Ro Lukens adopted Cowboy for him. He is very fond of donkeys. Isn't that nice?

Mark & Joanna Budries wanted to adopt Queeny. Queeny came to us many years ago with her daughter Princessa while she was pregnant with Prince. We call them the Royal family. Queeny also adopted Diva a donkey who didn’t have a mom and was bottle raised. Unfortunately Queeny is allergic to flies and makes the big wounds herself. We have to treat her with Off spray to give her a chance to heal.

Debi Donaldson & Scott Vittum adopted Blanco. Blanco is a very friendly donkey and once in a while he just picks out "his" people. Like he did with Debi and Scott. Maybe it is because Debi always loved donkeys. Who knows what is going on in a donkey brain?
