Kim Fiola adopted Gypsy, she likes her energy and name. Gypsy came to us a couple of years ago when she had a severe colic. To be honest, we didn't think she was going to survive. She stayed at the clinic for a week and had a very rough time. When she came "home" she became best friends with Diva.

Michael & Sherry Moore adopted Kiba, one of our friendly donkeys. She lives with us since 2007. Came in together with Storm who was a baby at the time. Not her baby though. Kiba is best friends with Sir Wildwood and Truffles.

Regina Oborski adopted Annie when she came back home. She visited us last week and love the work that we do! We love it too. Donkeys are so sweet and gentle... Annie came to us many years ago after loosing her baby at birth. The baby got stuck and we estimate Annie was in labor for about 6 days before we got a phone call that something was wrong with her. She was in the middle of nowhere on the East side of the Island. No houses, no people around. The baby already died and Annie had a very rough time but she luckily survived.

Heather and Arlin from Lazy Day Raft Rentals adopted Gerardo. Gerardo is with us since 1999. He came in with his Mom Maartje, who passed away last year. Gerardo is living with the elderly donkeys because he is very low in the picking order. In the big group he wouldn't eat. He would be waiting till everybody is finished eating, until all the food is gone

Natascha Lodewijks adopted Buri Senna who is also known as Mistery Man. Buri walked out one day and a few years later he returned, just was in front of the gate and walked back in. However donkeys change, so we didn't recognize him. We noticed he was castrated, should be one of ours? In the beginning we used other brand of micro chips and we couldn't read that particular chip with our reader. The reader of the vet could: there he was our Buri Senna. Back home!
