Laurette & Mike Cardadeiro like donkeys. They also adopted cats and Jagger needs a friend, since he is just new to the sanctuary. He is very cute!

Lori Lofano from Phoenix adopted Stg Pepper. We were happy to receive a full stallion. We selected 7 healthy females to start a controlled breeding program with fresh blood, new gene pool. Unfortunately after a year we have to say: He is not fertile. He was neutered and will be released in the main group as soon as all wounds are healed.

Kaitlin Boothe adopted Blackie because he has a scar on his leg and she just had an operation on her knee as well. Blackie was hit by a car many years ago. Had a broken leg he was the first donkey we performed surgery on after a broken leg. He is doing great. Walks, runs, plays, fights like every other donkey does....


Carrie Boothe wanted to adopt Santa because of his broken leg. He was hit by a car in 2010. After 2,5 years we could finally help him. His leg is crooked but not broken any more....

karyn Hynd says: Love the donkeys! We see them every time we visit Aruba. Picked Kroket because he was sweet! Tongue sticking out :)

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.
If you have a GPS device, navigate to these coordinates:  N 12°48.974’  W 069°96.642’  This will bring you to the entrance of the Donkey Sanctuary.
